Abstract
Energy Consumption has become a critical issue for all kinds of computer systems, data centers and servers. Their demand for 24X7 connectivity and availability needs huge power in quantity of megawatts. The performance of microprocessors has been improving at an exponential rate and this trend is continuing from past two decades. However, increased performance does not come for free. One of the most important consequences of higher performance has been a dramatic increase in power consumption. For example, Intel 386 processor initially consumed about 2 Watts of energy; a Pentium 4 can use as much as 55 Watts. Various algorithms have been developed with respect to present needs and situations, but no one thinks of the future.
