Optimum Control of Electrical Power in IT Systems by ULP Networked Sensing Systems

Research Project Outline

Energy demands has been increased dramatically for IT systems, such as personal computers and IDC (Internet data center). Ultra Low Power (ULP) networked sensing systems are proposed to visualize the energy consumption of IT systems. Employing the visualized consumption maps, IDC control system is to be developed for minimizing energy consumption. Furthermore, social experiments are planned to establish the reduction method of all energy consumption for all IT systems including air conditioning facilities.
