报告摘要：Green computing or Green IT, refers to a large collectionof research and practice of designing, manufacturing, utilizing and disposingof computers, storage, networking and communications systems, in striving forenvironmentally sustainable computing. This is one of the most critical, yetperhaps least explored topics in computing and communications today. Inparticular, large-scale datacenters --- the fundamental utility and infrastructurethathost and enablea wide range of cloud computing, big data, HPC and IoTapplications --- have incurred tremendous energy consumption, electricity cost,and high carbon emission worldwide.Why, when, where and how to evolve towardsgreen datacenters for achieving an era of green computing? In this talk, weexploredatacenterenergy management problem in a "Step-by-Step Approach", from power monitoringoflegacy datacenters, topower-performance tradeoff optimization ofgeo-distributed datacenters, as well as their interaction with smart gridsandrenewable energy resources(e.g., solar, wind, water and heat) to shape a"Green World" for the nextdecade.Concrete case studieson new energy-awarearchitectures,co-design of software-hardware systems, and emerging techniqueswill beillustrated to bridge theoryand practice, so as to foster comprehensive researchopportunities and cross-disciplinaryresearch collaboration.
