OpenGL Test Applications for GPU Energy and Power Consumptions |

Biagio Cosenza |
| Description |
Energy and power consumptions have become very important for nowadays architectures, and it is also important for graphics applications based on OpenGL to know how much energy consumes a given algorithm. In fact, different rendering algorithms, having similar performance (fps and latency) and visual quality may show very different energy and power consumptions on the GPU.
For instance, it’s known that the power consumption of an external memory access is substantially higher than both floating-point and integer operations.
The goal of this project is to code different test rendering algorithms (in OpenGL) and to run them on the GPU. Each proposed code will be evaluated according to its visual quality, performance, and energy consumption. |
| Tasks |
- Familiarize with OpenGL and study common rasterization-based rendering algorithms
- Implement a set of test applications focusing on memory accesses and computation
- Measure Energy and Power consumptions for the implemented codes (details on how to measure power/energy will be given during the thesis)

Webinterface for FLD

English or German |
| Description |
The FLD – documentation of research done – is an university and inter-university collection of the active research done at the divers institutes. Conference papers as well as editor-ships and public works are recorded.
This bachelor thesis should create an interface for entering all necessary information into an own database, while it provides and validates(!) most information out of a given DOI-Link and IEEE/Springer/ACM/DBLP libraries. It should generate BibTeX and an overview/report.
The used back-end (frameworks/languages/own things/…) can be discussed.Die FLD – Forschungsleistungsdokumentation – ist eine universitaere und interuniversitaere Zusammenfassung der aktiven Forschung. Hier werden nicht nur Papers von Konferenzen eingetragen, sondern auch Editorenschaften und  Oeffentlichkeitsarbeit.
Diese Bachelorarbeit soll nun ein Interface zum Eintragen aller notwendigen Informationen anbieten, wobei moeglichst vieles automatisch aus DOI-Link bzw IEEE/Springer/ACM/DBLP-Bibliothek generiert und vor allem auch ueberprueft, werden soll. Die Implementation soll sowohl BibTeX als auch eine Uebersicht ausgeben koennen.
Welches Back-End verwendet werden soll (Framework/Sprache/eigenes…) ist dem Studenten, in Absprache mit dem Betreuer, selber ueberlassen. |
| Tasks |
- Read background literature (given by supervisor)
- Evaluate information required (with supervisor)
- Build up a “simple” interface and the output.
- Evaluate information retrievable by DBLP/…
- Build a system to retrieve information
- Test the tool.
