چکیده
In this work, we present a software-based solution to automate the power control of desktop computers. The deployment of the proposed software system is simply done over the existing infrastructure of the organization, thus minimizing the required investment. Our initial analysis shows a cost reduction of more than 52% by reducing the power consumption of computers and their monitors.

متن کاملEnergy Conservation for Servers
Introduction Power management has been thoroughly studied for applications running on battery-powered platforms [3,5]. We take the position that power management is equally important for server environments, where high performance and reliability have traditionally been the most important design and evaluation factors. This position breaks with tradition and argues for considering energy consum...
