Collaborations in European Programs, except FP7

  • Program: COST

  • Project acronym: IC0804

  • Project title: Energy efficiency in large scale distributed systems

  • Duration: Jan 2009 - May 2013

  • Coordinator: J. M. Pierson

  • Other partners: More than 20 European countries.

  • Abstract: The COST Action IC0804 proposes realistic energy-efficient alternate solutions to share IT distributed resources. As large scale distributed systems gather and share more and more computing nodes and Storage resources, their energy consumption is exponentially increasing. While much effort is nowadays put into hardware specific solutions to lower energy consumptions, the need for a complementary approach is necessary at the distributed system level, i.e. middleware, network and applications. The Action characterizes the energy consumption and energy efficiencies of distributed applications.
