Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for processing an application in a high performance computing (HPC) data center are described. The method includes analyzing and sorting a plurality of nodes in a cluster of the HPC data center into a plurality of frequency bins, each of the plurality of nodes being sorted into more than one of the plurality of frequency bins based on performance. The method also includes analyzing and sorting the application into an application bin among a plurality of application bins based on a frequency scaling characteristic of the application. The method further includes selecting a first set of nodes among the plurality of nodes to process the application, the first set of nodes being sorted into a first frequency bin among the plurality of frequency bins corresponding with the application bin of the application.
