Energy-efficient video distribution systems have become an important tool to deal with the rapid growth in Internet video traffic and to maintain the environmental sustainability of the Internet. Due to the limitations in terms of energy-efficiency of the conventional server centric method for delivering video services to the end users, storing video contents closer to the end users could poten...

We have constructed Envismo (energy-visualization-mobility), a prototype of a real-time energy-monitoring platform that pairs common mobile Internet devices (Nokia N810 internet tablets) with cheap, readily available environmental sensors and a webbased datastore tied to an existing energy-monitoring network. This allows for the collection of real-time fine-grained environmental and energy usag...

Assessments of digital services wishing to take into account an energy footprint of the Internet typically require models of the energy intensity of the Internet. A common approach to the modeling of the energy intensity is to combine estimates of market surveys of installed network devices on a national or global scale and their related power consumption with the total data volume transported ...

The development of the energy internet has become one of the key ways to solve the energy crisis. This paper studies the system architecture, energy flow characteristics and coordinated optimization method of the regional energy internet. Considering the heat-to-electric ratio of a combined cooling, heating and power unit, energy storage life and real-time electricity price, a double-layer opti...

The carbon dioxide emissions dramatically increased during the past 10 years, accelerating the greenhouse effect. With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the percentage of global emissions attributable to Information Systems is expected to further increase in the coming years, due to a proliferation of Internet-connected devices omnipresent in our daily lives (e.g., electric meters, we...

The main challenge in designing mobile embedded systems for internet of things is to provide a solution that has the limitied power by battery lifetime, in addition to overcome frequent battery recharging or replacement. The help of solar and wind energy harvesting systems is an attractive method to increase the autonomy of mobile embedded systems for internet of things trying to make a continu...

Integration of different energy networks will increase additional flexibility to system operation. The key component in such a coupled infrastructure is the energy router, which plays an important role in energy transition and storage to smoothing the prediction error both in renewables and load. The router has the multi-carrier energy generation capability, and builds physical linkages among t...

in proclaiming an international year focusing on the topic of light science and its applications, the un has recognized the importance of raising global awareness about how light-based technologies promote sustainable development and provide solutions to global challenges in energy, education, agriculture, and health. light plays a vital role in our daily lives and is an imperative cross-cuttin...
