Abstract

The increase in computational capacities has helped in the exploration, production and research process, this has allowed the use of applications that were infeasible years ago. This increase brings us a new Era (known as Post-Moore Era) and a wide range of promising devices, devices such as Single Board Computers (SBC) or Personal Computers (PC) that achieve performance that a decade ago was only found on a Server. This work presents high performance computing devices with low monetary cost and low energy cost that meet the needs for the development of research in Artificial Intelligent (AI) applications, in-situ data analysis and simulations that can be implemented on a large scale, these devices are compared in different tests, presenting advantages such as its performance per watt consumed, smart form, among others.
