KDE Eco community meetup | Wed. 9 Nov. 19-20h CET

Mon Nov 7 11:49:08 GMT 2022

Information for KDE Eco monthly meetup on Wednesday at 19 CET.

_Overview_

*When*: Wednesday 9 November 19:00 CET (UTC+1) (ics event attached)

*Where*: https://meet.kde.org/b/jos-l59-2i1-9yt

*Topic*: Arne from Green Coding Berlin will present tooling to find and 
evaluate the current configuration state of a machine regarding 
performance-relevant settings

_Details_

For the Green Metrics Tool [1] the Green Coding Berlin team have 
developed some tooling to find and judge the current configuration state 
of a machine regarding performance-relevant settings, namely stuff like 
TurboBoost, Hyper-Threading etc. For work with the open-source group 
'boavizta' the team are currently trying to glue this into the Energizta 
project [2], which aims to be an open alternative to proprietary 
databases like SPECPower. Arne will present the tool for evaluating 
certain machine configurations and how to create a benchmarking tool 
that puts energy as a metric first.

Thanks @Arne for presenting. We look forward to learning more about this 
work!

Cheers,
Joseph
