Two IT-system control methods, which realize efficient bat- teryusageforbattery-poweredITsystemstargetingdevelopingcountries suchasIndia,areproposed.TheproposedmethodscontroltheITequip- mentandcoolingpowercollaborativelyonthebasisofaforecastofpower outage duration. To quantitatively evaluate these methods, power out- ages in Bangalore, India, were measured. The proposed methods were evaluated by using this measured power outage data. According to the evaluation results,theproposedmethodscan improveameasureofbat- tery efficiency, namely, IT-used-energy (Q )/battery-used-energy (Q ), t u by 39% compared to that of conventional ITsystems. 1 Introduction AsIT-systemmarketsindevelopedcountriesgrowandmature,thoseofdevelop- ing countries are becoming more important. Among such developing countries, India is one of the most promising. Specially, IT systems targeting small and medium sized business (SMB) markets are becoming more important because thatmarketisincreasinginIndia.InIndia,ITsystemsforsuchSMBsarenotso differentfromthoseofdevelopedcountries.However,thereisonecleardifference in terms ofthe power supply equipment used, thatis, use of anon-line-type un- interruptible power supply (UPS) and its add-on large capacity batteries. This state of affairs is due to poor power quality in India, where power supply prob- lems such as surges, dips, interruptions and long duration power outages are frequent. Surges, dips and interruptions can be solved by installing on-line-type UPS,whichsuppliespowerindirectlythroughbatteries.Similarly,longduration power outages can be solved by installing large capacity batteries. In general, thelead-acidbatteryisusedforUPS.This,however,posesaproblembecauseof its largeareaandheavyweight.Forexample, tocoveratwohourpoweroutage, batteriesweighingabout600kgareneededfor4-kWclassIT-systems.Moreover, a special floor construction is needed to support such a heavy weight. In light of the above described circumstances, it can be said that there is uniqueandnovelresearchareaforITsystemstargetingIndia,thatis,developing a battery-aware IT system. In the mobile systems field, battery-aware systems have been commonly researched, and there are a lot of related works [1]-[5]. These previous works mainly apply some optimization process before system A.Auweteretal.(Eds.):ICT-GLOW2012,LNCS7453,pp.1–17,2012. (cid:2)c Springer-VerlagBerlinHeidelberg2012 2 T. Matsumura and T. Yamada runtime. Such optimization is feasible because the task set and the timing of the task input of an embedded system are known in the system design phase. In the case of server applications other than embedded systems, however, the task set is not known at the system design phase. Moreover, task input timing depends on the server user. Because of these reasons, it is difficult to apply an optimization process for server applications in advance of the runtime. In response to the above described issues, the authors propose two runtime dynamicIT-systemcontrolmethodsbasedonforecasting.Theproposedmethods make power control guidelines on the basis of a power outage duration forecast andIT-loadforecast.TheITsystemandcoolerpoweraredynamicallycontrolled collaboratively at runtime. According to the forecast, the IT system can be cooled in advance. The power outage forecast and advanced cooling are the novelties concerning the proposed method. To the authors’ knowledge, there have been no papers about power outage duration forecasting and utilizing the forecast for advanced cooling of battery-awareIT systems. 2 Related Works In the mobile-application field, design of battery-aware systems has been well researchedsincebatterycapacityisstrictlyrestricted[1,2].Amongsuchprevious researchworks, task scheduling and dynamic voltage scheduling (DVS) are well known [3,4]. It is known that due to a battery feature called the rate capacity effect, the power-consumption profile of a battery can affect battery efficiency even if total energy consumption is the same. These previous works aim to optimize the power profile by controlling the voltage or task-execution order so as to maximize battery efficiency. The rate capacity effect is more significant in the case of the lead-acid battery used in current UPSs than in the case of the lithium-ion battery used in mobile systems. These previous works can therefore also be expected to be more effective for IT systems than for mobile systems. In the meantime, unlike designers of embedded systems (such as mobile ap- plications), designers of IT systems do not know task sets at the system design time. Moreover,taskinputtimingdepends onthe user.Asaresult,itisdifficult to schedule an IT-system task in advance. Given that difficultly, in the current work, two runtime dynamic IT-system power-controltechniques, based on fore- casting instead of in-advance scheduling, are proposed. With these techniques, power-outage duration is forecasted by analyzing power-outage history statisti- cally. In the field of mobile applications, a battery-awaretechnique that utilizes forecastinghasalsobeenproposed[5]. Withthis technique,thetimetothe next chargingopportunityisforecastedbyanalyzingusagehistorystatistically.Meth- ods for forecasting IT load have also been reported [6,7]. Forecasting of power- outageoccurrencesisalsopossible,andsummaryofpower-outagepredictionhas been published [8]. However, to the authors’ knowledge, power-outage-duration forecasting has not yet been reported.
