Carbon and Hot-spot Management in Green Data-Centric Networks: Self-Organization, Cellular Automata and Agents

By Samreen Laghari, Muaz A. Niazi, Dr. Muaz A Niazi

Large data centers are an enormous source of greenhouse gases.
Hotspots in data centers cause inefficient air-conditioning.
Can easy and effecting modeling and simulation techniques be used to better optimize data center and task-allocation algorithms?

With cloud computing, the business model for large firms has shifted to large data centers. Modeling power consumption in data centers can be complex and, therefore, infeasible for simplistic simulation models.

Agent-based modeling and cellular automata offer techniques to handle complex problems simply.

This book offers a unique method of agent-based modeling and cellular automata to handle complexity and hotspots in data centers.
