Distributed Systems''
a special issue of
International Journal of Communication Networks and
Distributed Systems (IJCNDS), Inderscience Publishers, UK
Theme
-----
In pursuit of a wider bandwidth and higher communication
efficiency, traditional buses are being replaced by
innovative communication fabrics as the principal
interconnect. However, these interconnection networks
consume a significant portion of the total system
energy. It has been reported in most systems up to
35% of energy is consumed by the interconnection
networks. Thus, we must develop innovative and effective
solution that can reduce power consumption for the
interconnection networks for high-performance distributed
systems.
Subject Coverage
----------------
The special issue will primarily encompass theoretical and
practical solutions for energy-efficient communications for
high-performance distributed systems. The topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:
. Voltage and frequency scaled networks
. Energy-efficient communication protocols
. Switching and routing protocols
. Hardware solutions for achieving energy efficiency in
large-scale networked systems
. Application specific communication protocols for emerging
distributed systems paradigms
. Multi-objective optimization procedures for achieving
high-throughput for energy-efficient systems
. Cross layer protocol design aiming at energy efficient
solutions
. Network models and simulation modules/tools for energy
efficient solutions
. Virtualisation techniques for energy efficiency
. Remote waking up techniques, protocols and strategies
. Energy consumption surveys for network elements
. Holistic models for energy efficient computing
