Motivation
•
Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Japan report
concluded that ICT equipment (routers, servers, PCs and
network systems) consumed 4% of the total electricity generated
all over Japan in 2006, a figure of 45,000,000 MWh. Over the
past five years the figure has grown by more than 20% [1].
•
The goal is to reduce this figure and its CO2 impact. It also has
to be observed that ICT can help reduce the ecological impact
by reducing journeys and introducing more efficient business
processes.
•
Studies indicate that for ICT equipment, 50% of CO2 emission is
due to the production stage, 45% due to the usage stage and 5%
due to the recycling/disposal stage [2]. Therefore it pays to
reduce the number of elements in the network and to design
architectures and protocols with the per-element usage in mind.
4
Access network power consumption trends
•
The figure shows NTT DoCoMo’s energy consumption for communication
equipment and number of 3G base stations [1]
•
Energy consumption increase is proportional to the number of installed base
stations
5
Power usage efficiency (PUE)
•
PUE is defined as the ratio of “total energy consumption” to “IT
equipment energy consumption” [1].
•
In addition to IT equipment, lighting and air conditioning are the
main contributors to the total energy.
•
A typical value of PUE is 1.7 [1].
•
Therefore it is worthwhile reducing the equipment, designing the
usage carefully, but also examining high temperature / uncooled
components.
•
Advanced hardware design and removing the cooling element
reduces CO2 emission by 20% to 40% it is estimated [3].
6
Photonic versus electronic switching
•
Photonic switching has much lower energy consumption
compared to electronic switching.
•
It has been shown that the power needed per bit for switching is
100 to 1000 times higher in an electronic semiconductor switch
as compared to a photonic switch [4].
7
Terminal versus network power consumption
•
Typical current mobile terminal power consumption is 0.83Wh
per day (including battery charger and terminal) [1].
•
The corresponding network power consumption is 120Wh [1].
•
The ratio is 150:1 and therefore the network power consumption
is the main contributor to CO2 and effort has to be directed at the
network primarily.
•
Significant research effort has gone into extending the mobile
terminal battery life by optimising and reducing its power
utilisation from 32Wh per day in 1990 to 0.83Wh per day in
2008, a factor of 38 [1, 5].
•
In comparison the network power consumption has received little
attention to date.
8
Wired and wireless network energy consumption
comparison
•
•
•
•
A university campus network has been reported to use 6% of the total
campus power [6]. This amount corresponds approximately to the
production of 13 tons of nitrogen oxides (a precursor to ozone), 35 tons of
sulphur dioxide and 5100 tons of carbon dioxide as a result of burning
fossil fuels. If the associated heating and cooling are added, network
energy consumption will double [6].
As a result of monitoring on campus networks [6], it was observed that the
power consumption of multi port hubs and switches is almost independent
of the number of devices connected to the hub or switch. For example a
Cisco switch consumed 40 watts with no devices connected and 42 watts
with 16 devices connected. Therefore it pays to reduce the number of
elements in the network.
It was found on campus [6] that the wired network consumed between
200,000 and 500,000 kWh per year, while the wireless network consumed
only 30,000 kWh. A factor of 10 difference between wired and wireless
which indicates that the focus has to be on the wired network for energy
saving.
In the US, ICT accounts for 3% of the total country energy consumption
9
[7, 8].
Power management approaches
•
Internet power usage has continued to increase over the past
decade due to (i) more absolute number of devices (ii) higher
active power of devices and (iii) more active hours of usage per
day [9].
•
Can shut off CPU and instruction level (nano to micro seconds),
inter-packet or intra-flow CPU halt or shut-off (micro to
millisecond) and inter-flow, the entire computer/communication
can be turned off (seconds to hours) [9].
10
Access, metro, core power consumption (1)
•
Energy consumption is rapidly developing into an environmental and
political concern [11, 12]. It has been studied in transport, buildings etc,
but less in telecom.
•
There is also concern about constructing and maintaining large data
centres and switching centres [13].
•
Therefore the question has been raised whether the Internet growth will
be constrained by power rather than bandwidth [11].
•
In [11] the conclusion reached is that photonic switching alone will not
solve the Internet energy consumption problem (ie need to look at the
overall picture including switching, routing protocols etc).
•
In some studies the extra power needed for cooling is assumed to be
equal to the power used by the equipment [11, 14].
•
In the access (based on PON) typical power consumption estimates are
10W for optical network units (ONU) and 100W for optical line terminal
which resides in an edge node and connects to several ONUS [11].
•
A typical edge router in the metro, for example Cisco 12816, consumes
4.21 kW [11, 15].
•
A typical core router, such as Cisco CRS-1 multishelf system with 92 Tb/s
full duplex switching capacity consumes 1020 kW [11, 15].
11
Access, metro, core power consumption (2)
•
WDM systems connecting the edge nodes to the core node
consume 1.5 kW for every 64 wavelengths [11, 16].
•
Typically one multiwavelength amplifier is required per fibre,
consuming around 6W [11, 16].
•
The WDM terminal systems connecting core nodes consume
811 W for every 176 channels, while each intermediate line
amplifier consumes 622 W for every 176 channels [11, 17].
12
Some more on motivation & techniques
•
•
Current estimates indicate that power consumption accounts for
about half the cost of ownership of communication networks [18,
19].
Energy saving in networks is possible due to two main reasons
[18]:
•
Networks are provisioned at present for the worst case scenario
and many times over provisioned (3 to 5 times). Therefore
varying the number of active elements and sections of a network
according to demand can save power.
•
The power consumption of the network at present remains
substantial even when the network elements are idle. Therefore
provisioning just the right amount and introducing sleep
operations during idle times can help.
13
Summary
•
Consider energy used in manufacturing as well as operation,
therefore reduce the number of network components.
•
Consider PUE, therefore uncooled components and systems are
attractive.
•
Photonic switching instead of electronic routing whenever
possible.
•
Network power consumption higher than that of the terminal.
•
Wired part still consumes more power than the wireless part.
•
Reduce the “over provisioning” whenever possible.
•
Introduce sleep modes and sleep cycles.
•
Power consumption can account for up to half of the operating
costs in networks.

Energy efficient routing in optical networks
•
The energy costs of the network will grow as the amount of data on
the network increases.
•
As the network expands in its capacity, energy consumption in the
core network is an important concern for the networking industry.
•
Some of the possible approaches that can reduce the energy
consumption include,
• put to sleep some of the wavelength routed nodes and,
• at a network level consider changing routes during low traffic
periods.
•
These two approaches decrease the QoS and connectivity. Energy
consumption can be reduced so long as the QoS performance
remains within SLA
16
Energy efficient routing in optical networks
•
Using intelligent optical control planes, lightpaths (or
wavelength channels) can have dynamic route selection
polices.
•
By using an efficient optical control management mechanism,
network nodes (WRN) can be set to ON or OFF states.
•
During the OFF cycle the nodes, adopt a sleep mode, cutting
down the traffic routed through them. Traffic originating at the
node or destined to the node is handled
•
The energy reduction achieved due to a sleep cycle is at the
cost of decrease in QoS.

Energy Efficient Routing (EER) Algorithm
•
We propose an Anycasting routing technique to minimize
the energy consumption in the optical network.
•
Anycasting is defined as the communication paradigm, in
which the user has the ability to choose a probable
destination from a group of possible destinations unlike
deciding it a-priori as in unicast.
•
An Anycast request is denoted as a two-tuple (s,Ds),
where s is the source node initiating a session and Ds is
set of probable destinations.
•
A sleep cycle is defined as the time duration in which a
WRN cuts off the traffic routed through it and adopts an
OFF state.

Related Work
•
•
Different solutions have been proposed to save energy in optical networks
In previous work [1] a static sleep cycles algorithm was proposed to reduce
the amount of energy consumed in optical networks.
• The network is divided into clusters of nodes. Clusters are set to switch between
•
the ON and OFF modes statically.
Putting some nodes in sleep state means that some traffic flows will have to
take longer routes, i.e. energy is saved at the expense of QoS.

Intelligent sleep cycles for energy efficiency
•
In this work we propose an intelligent sleep cycles algorithm where
nodes switch between the ON and OFF modes dynamically according
to the traffic flows in the network.
•
The major consideration for any energy saving solution is the trade off
between the amount of energy saved and the level of performance
degradation.
•
Dynamic sleep cycles are expected to save more energy while keeping
the network performance within acceptable levels.
•
When nodes go to sleep, they can still transmit and receive traffic but
they cannot route traffic.
•
Nodes monitor the traffic flows passing through. A monitoring window
period is defined.
•
If within the monitoring window the overall blocking probability is less
than a certain threshold, some nodes are selected to go to sleep
according to the traffic flow and their location in the network topology.
37
Intelligent sleep cycles for energy efficiency
• A node which is the only neighbour for another node cannot go to
sleep.
• If the network blocking probability exceeds the acceptable (service)
blocking probability threshold, the most recent node to sleep wakes
up to improve the blocking probability.
• In this algorithm, the blocking probability threshold is setup (within
SLA) to achieve a trade-off between the amount of energy saved
and the network performance.

Anycasting Algorithm
• In this work we assume a Grid scenario where OBS is
implemented as the switching technique and anycasting as the
routing paradigm.
• The anycast algorithm proposed in [1] is implemented. It is based
on selecting the Grid resources that achieve the lowest number of
hops to reduce the total amount of energy consumed.
• A more “static” OCS / dynamic OCS optical network can also be
considered,

• Simulation results have shown that the intelligent sleep cycles
algorithm has succeeded to save a considerable amount of
energy with a limited performance degradation, specially at
lower network loads.
