This application seeks funding to acquire a low-cost experimental platform to support multiple research projects under a unifying theme: enabling efficient resource utilization of modern, highly-tunable, heterogeneous platforms at the individual level and in the aggregate. To this end, we plan to acquire 20 low-power NVIDIA Jetson TX2 Development Kits and the supporting infrastructure (network switch, cabinet, power distribution, power meters, and a management server) to build a cost-efficient, low-power cluster.

该申请旨在获得一个低成本的实验平台，以支持一个统一主题下的多个研究项目：在个人层面和总体上实现现代，高度可调，异构平台的有效资源利用。为此，我们计划购买20个低功耗NVIDIA Jetson TX2开发套件和支持基础设施（网络交换机、机柜、配电、功率计和管理服务器），以构建一个经济高效的低功耗集群。
