Neha Aggarwal, Tripatjot Singh Panag, Hardeep Singh Ryait . Optimization of Energy Utilization in Future Internet: A Study of Existing Approaches and a Proposed Conceptual Framework based upon Neural Networks.

As the internet penetration increases, the realization for energy efficient networking has also begun, particularly in the last few years. In addition to the ecological concerns, having energy efficient networks make economic sense as well, since both energy cost and electrical equipment requirements of the telcos and internet service providers' will also proportionately increase with increase in demand for internet connectivity. The present study provides a brief insight into the work that has already been done and is being currently carried out to optimize the energy consumption of the optical networks. The paper also proposes a conceptual framework based upon neural networks which can lead to lowering of energy consumption in the optical networks.
