Abstract

This paper presents a hierarchical approach to energy management in data centers. The control architecture decomposes the problem into a fast computational layer (server workload scheduling) and a slower thermal layer (cooling management), enabling scalable coordinated optimization. The hierarchical structure exploits the natural timescale separation between computational and thermal dynamics.
