The problem of reducing power consumption in backbone networks by adopting sleep
modes has been extensively studied in the literature. In contrast to previous work, we …

In this work we propose a strategy to minimize the impact of energy saving techniques on
the performance of an Internet Service Provider network. We study the problem of putting in …

Energy saving in networks has traditionally focussed on reducing battery consumption
through smart wireless network design. Recently, researchers have turned their attention to …

The increased number of devices and links in today's backbones networks of Telecom, in
order to maintain quality of service during busy or rush hour loads, has become in a critical …

We focus on the problem of reducing power consumption in backbone networks by putting in
sleep mode IP links in order to save energy. We propose a new algorithm, called DAFNES …

Today, backbone networks of telecom operators deploy a large number of devices and links.
This is mainly due to both redundancy purposes for network service reliability and resource …

In the last decade, the impact of energy consumption on the environment became more
apparent. As the Internet has grown over the past, also it's power consumption has …

Nowadays two main approaches are being pursued to reduce energy consumption of
network devices: the use of sleep modes in which devices can be put in low-power state …

A detailed survey of approaches reducing energy consumption of core networks is
presented in this paper. We consider a multilayer architecture, in which the optical layer can …

We target the maximization of the operator profitability in a LTE cellular network with e-
NodeBs (eNBs) exploiting sleep mode power states. The profitability is composed of …
