This document (TANGO Use Case Beta version) presents the progress made through the project second year. The objective of this work package is to perform the validation of the TANGO Toolbox mainly through use-case implementation identified by industrial partners, BULL and DELTATEC. The Use Cases under consideration are:
 The HPC mini-app, proposed by BULL, which represent the use of the TANGO framework in the HPC world;
 The remote application from DELTATEC, which represent the high-end industrial image processing segment;

This document presents the progress made in Year 2 of the TANGO project. In particular, this document is dedicated to the TANGO architecture components’ scientific contributions. It is important to note that in the 2nd year of TANGO, two new TANGO architecture components are introduced, i.e., Self-Adaptation Manager (SAM) and the Device Emulator (DE).

This document accompanies the software release of the TANGO project at the end of Year 2 (Quality optimisation and trade-offs). It presents the installation manuals of the different software components found in the overall TANGO architecture. First, it presents the installation of development tools and then of the software to install on the operational/runtime infrastructure of heterogeneous hardware.

This document reports the alpha version validation for TANGO Toolbox. It details progress in Use Cases architecture and implementation and validation and verification experiments performed regarding TANGO Toolbox components. In addition, it will provide lessons learned from this first iteration that will be used as inputs for the Beta Version of the TANGO Toolbox.

This document is the updating of the TANGO requirements and architecture for second iteration (Beta version). It is an upgrade of Alpha version.

This document provides the installation manuals of the various software packages found in the TANGO architecture. The results achieved at the end of Year-1 makes it possible to use development tools to shape application code and then to run application on an heterogeneous hardware obtain time and energy consumption profile can be collected in order for developers to establish the desired benchmarks and to assist them in making requirements, design and coding decisions.

This deliverable present the progress of the TANGO project at the end of its first Year. The scientific contributions of several TANGO tools and components are provided, notably, for the energy modeller, the design-time optimiser, the C/OMPSs programming model integration and the code optimiser. Furthermore, two testbeds are made available, a first one with CPU, GPU and Xeon Phi nodes and another one with CPU and FPGA to conduct experimental runs and collect time and energy performance of different small computation: matrix multiplication, Hydro and NBody simulation.

Computer systems have faced significant power challenges over the past 20 years; these challenges have shifted from the devices and circuits level, to their current position as first-order constraints for system architects and software developers. TANGO’s goal is to characterise factors which affect power consumption in software development and operation for heterogeneous parallel hardware environments.
