Impact of office productivity cloud computing on energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions

DR Williams, Y Tang - Environmental science & technology, 2013 - ACS Publications
Cloud computing is usually regarded as being energy efficient and thus emitting less
greenhouse gases (GHG) than traditional forms of computing. When the energy …

Enabling non-repudiable data possession verification in cloud storage systems

Z Mo, Y Zhou, S Chen, C Xu - 2014 IEEE 7th International …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
After clients outsource their data to the cloud, they will lose physical control of their data.
Many schemes are proposed for clients to verify the integrity of their data. This paper …

Optimizing power and performance trade-offs of MapReduce job processing with heterogeneous multi-core processors

F Yan, L Cherkasova, Z Zhang… - 2014 IEEE 7th …, 2014 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Modern processors are often constrained by a given power budget that forces designers to
consider different trade-offs, eg, to choose between either many slow, power-efficient cores …

Profiling energy consumption in distributed simulations

A Biswas, R Fujimoto - Proceedings of the 2016 ACM SIGSIM …, 2016 - dl.acm.org
An energy profile indicates the amount of energy consumed by different parts of a parallel or
distributed simulation program. Creating energy profiles is not straightforward because high …
