Objectives:
- Design and develop novel control strategies and algorithms for:
- optimally and jointly synchronizing power states and for dynamically allocating energy resources among heterogeneous sub-components of single devices (e.g., packet processing engines and network link interfaces capable of entering in standby or power scaling modes) in order to meet traffic volumes and service requirements.
- power states synchronization as SW applications, namely energy-aware "governors", which will include interfaces towards the green abstraction layer as specified in T4.2 and T4.3.
- Design and develop advanced control strategies for green equipment in a same site (e.g., cabinets, points of presence, pair of redundant devices) in order to meet traffic service and fault-tolerance requirements.
- Design and develop heat dissipation models of energy-aware devices in a same cabinet/point of presence for adaptively modulating cooling systems.
- Provide a first validation of the local optimization strategies through simulative and/or emulative means.
