Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.

Abstract (eng):ICT systems, especially data centers, consume a significant amount of energy in our daily life.
With the rapidly increasing number and size of data centers, energy management is becoming essential.
Thus, it is beneficial if the used energy in data centers can be utilized more efficiently.
In this thesis, we analyze the energy-aware performance of queueing systems from the traffic point of view.
The focus will be on using queueing theory to model and analyze a single processor in data centers.
In data centers, the energy consumed by a processor depends on the processing speed.
With higher speed, more energy is consumed, while with lower speed, the performance will be decreased.
Thus, we consider the trade-off between the performance and energy consumption of processors.
Based on this, we introduce a speed scaling method, which adjusts the processing speed of processors according to the traffic load of the queueing system.
We mainly analyze and compare three optimized speed scaling methods, which are static, gated and linear speed scaling.
In the gated and linear schemes, there is a switching delay when the processor is switched from the idle state to the busy state.
The results demonstrate that the switching delay has a great impact on the optimized trade-off.
In our scenario, without switching delay, gated and linear schemes have the same performance, and they are better than the static scheme.
With switching delay, however, the linear scheme is always better than the gated scheme.
With a long switching delay, even the static scheme can be better.
In practice, the trade-off of our model is highly affected by the parameters in the model.
