Aggregation-Based Colocation Datacenter Energy Management in Wholesale Markets
Abstract
Introduction
Aggregation-Based Colocation Datacenter Energy Management in Wholesale Markets From the demand side, substantial efforts have been made to reduce the growing electricity bills of datacenters, ranging from hardware such as energy-efficient servers, storage devices, and network switches to software such as virtualization and dynamic CPU speed scaling and capacity provisioning, which has led to dramatic improvements in datacenter energy efficiency. On the other hand, it is also important for datacenters to manage their energy costs from the supply side. As large consumers, data centers typically have multiple options to supply electricity to meet their power demand.

Platform : cloud computing
Conclusion
We model this aggregation process as a cooperative game and present a cost allocation mechanism based on each datacenter’s marginal contribution to the total cost expected to distribute the optimal cost expected within the grand coalition to each datacenter.
