Energy proportional and opportunistic computing systems<\/span><\/p>\n

With the emergence of the Future Internet and the dawning of new IT models such as cloud computing, the usage of data centers (DC), and consequently their power consumption, increase dramatically. Besides the ecological impact, the energy consumption is a predominant criteria for DC providers since it determines the daily cost of their infrastructure. As a consequence, power management becomes one of the main challenges for DC infrastructures and more generally for large-scale distributed systems. In this paper, we present the EPOC project which focuses on optimizing the energy consumption of mono-site DCs connected to the regular electrical grid and to renewable energy sources.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In this project, partners aim at focusing on energy-aware task execution from the hardware to application’s components in the context of a mono-site data center (all resources are in the same physical location) which is connected to the regular electric Grid and to renewable energy sources (such as windmills or solar cells).<\/p>\n

We propose to address three major challenges in this context :<\/p>\n
