# Power-Capping Strategies
|
|
|
|
_Elektron_ is capable of deploying different power capping strategies. The power capping strategy to be plugged in can be specified using the `-powercap` command-line option.
|
|
|
|
## Power-Capping Policies
|
|
|
|
* **Extrema** - A dynamic power-capping strategy that is able to make smart trade-offs
|
|
between makespan and power consumption. *Extrema* reacts to power trends in the
|
|
cluster and restrains the power consumption of the cluster to a power
|
|
envelope defined by a high threshold and low threshold.
|
|
* **Progressive-Extrema** - A modified version *Extrema* that performs
|
|
power-capping in phases. Unlike in *Extrema*, where picking a previously
|
|
capped node as a victim resulted in a NO-OP, *Progressive-Extrema* applies
|
|
a harsher capping value for that victim. |
