A Survey on Green Computing using GPU in Image Processing

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2015, Vol 14, Issue 10

Abstract

Green computing is the process of reducing the power consumed by a computer and thereby reducing carbon emissions. The total power consumed by the computer excluding the monitor at its fully computative load is equal to the sum of the power consumed by the GPU in its idle state and the CPU at its full state. Recently, there have been tremendous interests in the acceleration of general computing applications using a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Now the GPU provides the computing powers not only for fast processing of graphics applications, but also for general computationally complex data intensive applications. On the other hand, power and energy consumptions are also becoming important design criteria. Consequently, software designs have to consider the power/energy consumptions together with performance when they are developing software.The GPU therefore does the 100% of the CPU work in its idle state .Hence the power consumed by the GPU will be low. Also when the GPU is doing all the work the CPU will remain at a load less than its idle load. Hence the power consumed will be equal to the power consumed by the CPU at a load less than its idle load plus the power consumed by a GPU.
