Computer and model generation method
The CPU of the management node measures the power consumption of a computer node while causing the computer node to execute the power measurement benchmark that uses hardware whose resource is allocated to a program to be executed by the computer node, where the CPU is changing the use amount of the resource while causing the computer node to execute the power measurement benchmark. The CPU generates a power consumption model representing a relationship between an allocation amount of the resource to be allocated to the program and the power consumption on the basis of a measurement result obtained by measuring the power consumption.
