A Performance-Conserving Approach for Reducing Peak Power Consumption in Server Systems

by Wes Felter, Karthick Rajamani, Tom Keller, Cosmin Rusu - In Proceedings of ICS , 2005
"... The combination of increasing component power consumption, a desire for denser systems, and the required performance growth in the face of technology-scaling issues are posing enormous challenges for powering and cooling of server systems. The challenges are directly linked to the peak power consump ..."

1Social Networking Reduces Peak Power Consumption in Smart Grid

by Qiuyuan Huang, Xin Li, Jing Zhao, Dapeng Wu, Xiang-yang Li
"... Abstract—Minimizing the peak power consumption of elec-trical appliances under delay requirements is shown to be NP hard. To address this, we propose a “family plan ” approach that partitions users into groups and schedules users ’ appliances to minimize the peak power consumption of each group. Our ..."

Real-Time Dynamic Voltage Scaling for Low-Power Embedded Operating Systems

by Padmanabhan Pillai, Kang G. Shin , 2001
"... In recent years, there has been a rapid and wide spread of nontraditional computing platforms, especially mobile and portable computing devices. As applications become increasingly sophisticated and processing power increases, the most serious limitation on these devices is the available battery lif ..."

However, for a large class of applications in embedded real-time systems like cellular phones and camcorders, the variable operating frequency interferes with their deadline guarantee mechanisms, and DVS in this context, despite its growing

Differential Power Analysis

by Paul Kocher, Joshua Jaffe, Benjamin Jun , 1999
"... Cryptosystem designers frequently assume that secrets will be manipulated in closed, reliable computing environments. Unfortunately, actual computers and microchips leak information about the operations they process. This paper examines specific methods for analyzing power consumption measuremen ..."

Telos: Enabling Ultra-Low Power Wireless Research

by Joseph Polastre , Robert Szewczyk , David Culler , 2005
"... We present Telos, an ultra low power wireless sensor module (“mote”) for research and experimentation. Telos is the latest in a line of motes developed by UC Berkeley to enable wireless sensor network (WSN) research. It is a new mote design built from scratch based on experiences with previous mote ..."

We discuss how hardware components are selected and integrated in order to achieve these goals. Using a Texas Instruments MSP430

Power-Aware Routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

by Mike Woo, Suresh Singh, C. S. Raghavendra , 1998
"... In this paper we present a case for using new power-aware metrics for determining routes in wireless ad hoc networks. We present five different metrics based on battery power consumption at nodes. We show that using these metrics in a shortest-cost routing algorithm reduces the cost/packet of rout ..."

Power provisioning for a warehousesized computer,”

by Xiaobo Fan , Wolf-Dietrich Weber Luiz , André Barroso - ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News, , 2007
"... ABSTRACT Large-scale Internet services require a computing infrastructure that can be appropriately described as a warehouse-sized computing system. The cost of building datacenter facilities capable of delivering a given power capacity to such a computer can rival the recurring energy consumption ..."

Topology Control of Multihop Wireless Networks using Transmit Power Adjustment

by Ram Ramanathan , Regina Rosales-hain , 2000
"... We consider the problem of adjusting the transmit powers of nodes in a multihop wireless network (also called an ad hoc network) to create a desired topology. We formulate it as a constrained optimization problem with two constraints- connectivity and biconnectivity, and one optimization objective- ..."

We analyze the throughput, delay, and power consumption of our algorithms using a prototype software implementation, an emulation of a power-controllable radio, and a detailed channel model. Our results show that the performance of multihop wireless networks in practice can be substantially
