Large-scale Distributed Systems and Energy Efficiency
Addresses innovations in technology relating to the energy efficiency of a wide variety of contemporary computer systems and networks With concerns about global energy consumption at an all-time high, improving computer networks energy efficiency is becoming an increasingly important topic. Large-Scale Distributed Systems and Energy Efficiency: A Holistic View addresses innovations in technology relating to the energy efficiency of a wide variety of contemporary computer systems and networks. After an introductory overview of the energy demands of current Information and Communications Technology (ICT), individual chapters offer in-depth analyses of such topics as cloud computing, green netw...
Computer Science and Ambient Intelligence
This book focuses on ambient intelligence and addresses various issues related to data management, networking and HCI in this context. Taking a holistic view, it covers various levels of abstraction, ranging from fundamental to advanced concepts and brings together the contributions of various specialists in the field. Moreover, the book covers the key areas of computer science concerned with the emergence of ambient intelligence (e.g. interaction, middleware, networks, information systems, etc.). It even goes slightly beyond the borders of computer science with contributions related to smart materials and ethics. The authors cover a broad spectrum, with some chapters dedicated to the presentation of basic concepts and others focusing on emerging applications in various fields such as health, transport and tourism.
Information and Communication on Technology for the Fight Against Global Warning
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Information and Communication Technology for the Fight against Global Warming, ICT-Glow 2011, held in Toulouse, France in August 2011. The 16 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. They address the following topics: parallel computing, ICT for transportation, cloud and pervasive computing, measurement and control and storage.
High-Performance Computing on Complex Environments
With recent changes in multicore and general-purpose computing on graphics processing units, the way parallel computers are used and programmed has drastically changed. It is important to provide a comprehensive study on how to use such machines written by specialists of the domain. The book provides recent research results in high-performance computing on complex environments, information on how to efficiently exploit heterogeneous and hierarchical architectures and distributed systems, detailed studies on the impact of applying heterogeneous computing practices to real problems, and applications varying from remote sensing to tomography. The content spans topics such as Numerical Analysis ...
Energy Efficient Data Centers
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Energy Efficient Data Centers, E2DC 2014, held in Cambridge, UK, in June 2014. The 10 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from numerous submissions. They are organized in three topical sections named: energy optimization algorithms and models, the future role of data centres in Europe and energy efficiency metrics for data centres.
Advanced Information Systems Engineering Workshops
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the international workshops associated with the 33rd International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2021, which was held during June 28-July 2, 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Melbourne, Australia, but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The workshops included in this volume are: · BC4IS: 1st International Workshop on Blockchain for Information Systems · EMoBI : 3rd International Workshop on Ethics and Morality in Business Informatics · KET4DF : 3rd International Workshop on Key Enabling Technology for Digital Factories · MOBA: 1st International Workshop on Model-driven Organizational and Business Agility · NeGIS: 2nd International Workshop on Next Generation Information Systems They focus on topics and trends ranging from blockchain technologies to digital factories, ethics, and business agility to the next generation of information systems. The 14 full papers and 1 short paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions.
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
