صرفه جویی در انرژی، مدلسازی حرارتی و شبیه سازی مراکز داده: نتایج رویکرد و ارزیابی CoolEmAll

This paper describes the CoolEmAll project and its approach for modeling and simulating energy-efficient and thermal-aware data centers. The aim of the project was to address energy-thermal efficiency of data centers by combining the optimization of IT, cooling and workload management. This paper provides a complete data center model considering the workload profiles, the applications profiling, the power model and a cooling model. Different energy efficiency metrics are proposed and various resource management and scheduling policies are presented. The proposed strategies are validated through simulation at different levels of a data center.
