ERIDIS: ENERGY-EFFICIENT RESERVATION INFRASTRUCTURE FOR LARGE-SCALE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

摘要

At the age of petascale machines, cloud computing and peer-to-peer systems, large-scale distributed systems need an ever-increasing amount of energy. These systems urgently require effective and scalable solutions to manage and limit their electrical consumption. As of now, most efforts are focused on energy-efficient hardware designs. Thus, the challenge is to coordinate all these low-level improvements at the middleware level to improve the energy efficiency of the overall systems. Resource-management solutions can indeed benefit from a broader view to pool the resources and to share them according to the needs of each user. In this paper, we propose ERIDIS, an Energy-efficient Reservation Infrastructure for large-scale DIstributed Systems. It provides a unified and generic framework to manage resources from Grids, Clouds and dedicated networks in an energy-efficient way.
