description With energy consumption emerging as one of the biggest issues in the development of HPC (High Performance Computing) applications, the importance of detailed power-related research works becomes a priority. In the last years, GPU coprocessors have been increasingly used to accelerate many of these high-priced systems even though they are embedding millions of transistors on their chips delivering an immediate increase on power consumption necessities. This paper analyzes a set of applications from the Rodinia benchmark suite in terms of CPU and GPU performance and energy consumption. Specifically, it compares single-threaded and multi-threaded CPU versions with GPU implementations, and characterize the execution time, true instant power and average energy consumption to test the idea that GPUs are power-hungry computing devices.
