A Survey of Green Networking Research

Abstract: Abstract-Reduction of unnecessary energy consumption is becoming a major concern in wired networking, because of the potential economical benefits and of its expected environmental impact. These issues, usually referred to as "green networking", relate to embedding energy-awareness in the design, in the devices and in the protocols of networks.In this work, we first formulate a more precise definition of the "green" attribute. We furthermore identify a few paradigms that are the key enablers of energy-aware ne… Show more

“…This includes initiatives pushing for rapid power up/down methods and energy efficient sleep/idle modes for networking equipment (from access equipment to core equipment). Furthermore, noting the diurnal nature of communication network traffic, proposals for powering down parts of a network infrastructure during low load periods to save power and OPEX costs have appeared in the literature [3]. This literature has focused on saving energy without regard for the effects on resilience, which will be longer restoration times, less fault tolerance and lower levels of availability.…”

“…A network is considered to be idle if U max is below a determined threshold, T 1 . If the network is idle then the PSR will verify if the network connectivity can be maintained in his absence.…”

“…Energy issues are a growing concern on the early XXI century [1]. According to [2], energy consumption by telecommunication networks account to about 5% of the total energy consumption of developed countries, being a major concern nowadays not only for environmental, but also due to economical reasons.…”

“…However, the exponential increase in data traffic is accompanied by a rapid increase in energy and environmental costs [2]. Interestingly, the small cell architecture is not only energy efficiency but the low transmit power required also allows for the employment of renewable energy sources at the basestations (BSs).…”
