One of the first books of its kind, this timely reference illustrates the need for and the state of increasingly energy efficient distributed computing systems. Featuring the latest research findings on emerging topics by well-known scientists, it explains how constraints on energy consumption creates a suite of complex engineering problems that need to be resolved in order to lead to "greener" distributed computing systems. Practitioners, postgraduate students, postdocs, researchers, engineers and scientists working in high-performance computing areas will find the insights in this work…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
One of the first books of its kind, this timely reference illustrates the need for and the state of increasingly energy efficient distributed computing systems. Featuring the latest research findings on emerging topics by well-known scientists, it explains how constraints on energy consumption creates a suite of complex engineering problems that need to be resolved in order to lead to "greener" distributed computing systems. Practitioners, postgraduate students, postdocs, researchers, engineers and scientists working in high-performance computing areas will find the insights in this work invaluable.
The energy consumption issue in distributed computing systems raises various monetary, environmental and system performance concerns. Electricity consumption in the US doubled from 2000 to 2005. From a financial and environmental standpoint, reducing the consumption of electricity is important, yet these reforms must not lead to performance degradation of the computing systems. These contradicting constraints create a suite of complex problems that need to be resolved in order to lead to 'greener' distributed computing systems. This book brings together a group of outstanding researchers that investigate the different facets of green and energy efficient distributed computing.

Key features:
One of the first books of its kind
Features latest research findings on emerging topics by well-known scientists
Valuable research for grad students, postdocs, and researchers
Research will greatly feed into other technologies and application domains
