16. KempnerPulse#

KempnerPulse is a terminal dashboard developed at the Kempner Institute for NVIDIA DCGM hardware-counter metrics. It helps distinguish headline GPU utilization from actual SM, tensor-core, memory, and graphics-engine activity, with awareness of SLURM and CUDA GPU visibility.

Best for

  • Monitoring live GPU jobs on SLURM-managed GPU clusters.

  • Inspecting per-GPU activity through Fleet, Focus, Plot, and Job views.

  • Capturing or replaying DCGM metrics for debugging, comparison, and utilization analysis.
