Energy-Efficient Distributed Computing Systems 

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
