报告题目：Heterogeneity to achieve energy proportionality
报告邀请人：2138com太阳集团于戈教授
报告简介：
Energy consumption of IT infrastructures is regularly growing. Energy efficiency has been increasing since the last years. However the question of having a fully proportional architecture is still not resolved. A proportional computer in terms of energy consumption would consume 0 watt when not used, and linearly increasing with the load of the system. After motivating the need of having such improvement, I will propose an architecture composed of several heterogeneous units to tackle this problem. Moreover I will investigate the dynamic provisioning of resources in this architecture and propose some dedicated algorithms for assigning resources and user loads to each of the computing units. Finally I will investigate the future directions of this work and the needed steps for developing the concept, opening novel research questions.
报告人简介：
Jean-Marc Pierson serves as a Full Professor in Computer Science at the University of Toulouse (France) since 2006. He received his PhD from the ENS-Lyon, France in1996. He was an Associate Professor at the University Littoral Cote-d'Opale (1997-2001) in Calais, then at INSA-Lyon (2001-2006).
He is a member of the IRIT Laboratory and Chair of the SEPIA Team on distributed systems. His main interests are related to large-scale distributed systems. He serves on several PCs and editorial boards in the Cloud, Grid, Pervasive, and Energy-aware computing area.
Since the last years, his researches focus on energy aware distributed systems, in particular monitoring, job placement and scheduling, virtual machines techniques, green networking, autonomic computing, mathematical modeling.
He was chairing the EU funded COST IC804 Action on “Energy Efficiency in Large Scale Distributed Systems” and participates in several national and European projects on energy efficiency in large scale distributed systems.
