Abstract: Energy consumption of current computer fleets of most organizations can be substantially reduced by using power management systems. Energy saving is an important matter as, with the sustained increment of the cost of electricity, the monetary savings can be significant. This paper presents a technique to minimize the power consumption of the computer fleet or an organization. The technique is based on a distributed system where a central manager coordinates the local power manager of each computer. A method to determine the profitability of this type of management system is also proposed. The key element to save energy is the idle timer used by local power controllers. When the controller detects that the computer is inactive, it starts the timer, and when the timer expires, the controller puts the computer in suspension or hibernation, or turns off the computer. This paper proposes a systematic technique to estimate the appropriate values of the idle timers for the computers of the fl

Abstract: This paper presents an active queue management (AQM) method of uncertain TCP network using the robust control. A numerical simulation for AQM of uncertain TCP network is conducted to justify the validity and feasibility of the proposed approach which is robust to high load variations in steady-state behavior.
