Dynamic Cluster Reconfiguration for Power and Performance
165 Citations2003Eduardo Pinheiro, Ricardo Bianchini +2 more
This chapter addresses power conservation for clusters of workstations or PCs by developing systems that dynamically turn cluster nodes on - to be able to handle the load imposed on the system efficiently - and off - to save power under lighter load.
