In recent years, the power costs of cloud data centers have become a practical concern and
have attracted significant attention from both industry and academia. Most of the early works …

Abstract The Information and Communication Technology sector is considered to be a major
consumer of energy and has become an active participant in Green House Gas emissions …

Cloud based applications and services require high performance and strong reliability
provided by data center networks. To overcome the problem of traditional tree based data …

We design predictors of user dissatisfaction with the performance of applications that use
networking. Our approach combines user-level feedback with low level machine and …

The cellular system is the world's largest network, providing service to over five billion
people. Operators of these networks face fundamental trade-offs in coverage, capacity and …

We investigate the power consumption of a network server based on a multiclass open
queuing network with closed-form solution. The model consists of service stations that …

Reducing the network energy waste is one of the key challenges of the Future Internet. Many
Internet-based applications require preserving network connectivity for getting incoming …

Until now, green computing research has largely relied on few, short-term power
measurements to characterize the energy use of enterprise computing. This paper brings …

The distribution of television is currently dominated by three technologies: over-the-air
broadcast, cable, and satellite. The advent of IP networks and the increased availability of …

Studies have shown that much of today's data centers are over-provisioned and
underutilized. Over-provisioning cannot be avoided as these centers must anticipate peak …
