This study discusses causes and problems of high power/energy consumption, and presents a taxonomy of energy-efficient design of computing systems covering the hardware, operating system, virtualization, and data center levels.
Abstract
Traditionally, the development of computing systems has been focused on performance improvements driven by the demand of applications from consumer, scientific, and business domains. However, the ever-increasing energy consumption of computing systems has started to limit further performance growth due to overwhelming electricity bills and carbon dioxide footprints. Therefore, the goal of the computer system design has been shifted to power and energy efficiency. To identify open challenges in the area and facilitate future advancements, it is essential to synthesize and classify the research on power- and energy-efficient design conducted to date. In this study, we discuss causes and problems of high power/energy consumption, and present a taxonomy of energy-efficient design of computing systems covering the hardware, operating system, virtualization, and data center levels. We survey various key works in the area and map them onto our taxonomy to guide future design and development efforts. This chapter concludes with a discussion on advancements identified in energy-efficient computing and our vision for future research directions.

Greening geographical load balancing

TL;DR: This paper explores whether the geographical diversity of Internet-scale systems can additionally be used to provide environmental gains and shows that if electricity is dynamically priced in proportion to the instantaneous fraction of the total energy that is brown, then geographical load balancing provides significant reductions in brown energy use.
