A Taxonomy and Survey of Energy-Efficient Data Centers and Cloud Computing Systems (2010, background): “e infrastructures, such as clusters and data centers. It was estimated that in 2006 IT infrastructures in the US consumed about 61 billion kWh for the total electricity cost about 4.5 billion dollars [4]. The estimated energy consumption is more than double from what was consumed by IT in 2000. More”

Understanding and Mitigating the Effects of Device and Cloud Service Design Decisions on the Environmental Footprint of Digital Infrastructure (2016, neutral): “The US EPA [70] identified the growth of energy consumption by data centers as a cause for concern, and Greenpeace [24] has campaigned on the issue.”
DENS: data center energy-efficient network-aware scheduling (2010, background): “The cost and operational expenses of data centers have skyrocketed with the increase in computing capacity [7].”
Energy Efficient Allocation of Virtual Machines in Cloud Data Centers (2010, neutral): “However, a large-scale computing infrastructure consumes enormous amounts of electrical power leading to operational costs that exceed the cost of the infrastructure in few years.”
A Survey of Green Networking Research (2010, background): “Finally, from an engineering point of view , green networking may be better seen as a way to reduce energy required to carry out a given task while maintaining the same level of performance, which is the point of view that we will adopt in the rest of this article.”
Environment-conscious scheduling of HPC applications on distributed Cloud-oriented data centers (2011, background): “The major contributors for the total energy usage in a data center are IT equipment (which consists of servers, storage devices, and network equipment) and cooling systems [19].”
Autonomic multi-agent management of power and performance in data centers (2008, background): “To cite a recent and prominent example, the US Congress mandated a study of energy efficiency for servers and data centers [14].”
