A cyber-physical systems approach to energy management in data centers

This paper presents a new control strategy for data centers that aims to optimize the trade-off between maximizing the payoff from the provided quality of computational services and minimizing energy costs for computation and cooling. The data center …

A Unified Thermal-Computational Approach to Data Center Energy Management

This paper presents a unified, coordinated, thermal-computational approach to the data center energy management problem. A data center is modeled as two coupled net-works: a computational and a thermal network. The first network describes the …

Reducing Data Center Energy Consumption via Coordinated Cooling and Load Management

This paper presents a unified approach to data center energy management based on a modeling framework that characterizes the influence of key decision variables on computational performance, thermal generation, and power consumption. Temperature …
