Abstract

The increasing growth of energy-aware and power-aware computing is driven by the following concerns: The widespread use of mobile battery-powered devices, where the available time-for-use depends on the power consumption of the device The power dissipation within a large system-on-chip that leads to high internal temperatures and hot spots that have a negative impact on the chip’s reliability, possibly physically destroying the chip The high cost of the energy for the operation and cooling of large data centers, and finally The general concern about the carbon emissions of the ICT industry, which is of about the same magnitude as the carbon emissions of the air-transport industry.
