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 …

Nowadays two main approaches are being pursued to reduce energy consumption of
networks: the use of sleep modes in which devices enter a low-power state during inactivity …

The IEEE 802.3 az standard provides a new low power mode that Ethernet network
interfaces can use to save energy when there is no traffic to transmit. Simultaneously with …

The last few years have seen a surge in the awareness of energy efficiency in many fields,
including the networking community. As an answer towards such demands the IEEE has …

The energy demands of Ethernet links have been an active focus of research in the recent
years. This work has enabled a new generation of energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE) interfaces …

Switching the operating state on machines is probably the simpler way to reduce the energy
consumption of otherwise non energy-aware devices. Indeed, many energy-aware systems …

Using cloud services from mobile devices has become a growing trend because of its
mobility and convenience. However, mobile devices join and leave cloud services more …

The IEEE 802.3 bj standard defines two potential low power operating modes for high speed
energy efficient ethernet (EEE) physical interfaces working at 40 and 100 Gb/s: a not-so …

Frame coalescing is one of the most efficient techniques to manage the low power idle (LPI)
mode supported by energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) interfaces. This technique enables EEE …

The rapidly growing energy consumption of the Internet core network has been a growing
concern. In this respect, we have proposed a distributed and load adaptive energy saving …
