Energy performance of green façades
RIVISTA DI STUDI SULLA SOSTENIBILITA', 2023Green façades consist of the application of vegetation on buildings' vertical enve-lope. The integration of vegetation into the building fabric improves not only the aesthetic appearance, but also the energy performance of the building itself. The introduction of green façades mainly aims at a passive thermal control of build-ings' for enhancing ...

Energy–Performance Tunable Logic
IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, 2009We propose a new logic family that enables the user to tune the transistor's effective threshold voltage after fabrication for higher speed or lower power. This technique along with dynamic voltage scaling allows simultaneous optimization of static and dynamic power based on the application/workload requirements.

Energy Performance of Interior Lighting Systems
IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 2012The authors suggest a methodology to evaluate the energy performance of lighting systems. The methodology is useful in the designing time to optimize, luminaires, system and control and in management time to certificate the systems. Four energy performance indicators are suggested: EP L for the luminaires like a label, EP S for the lighting systems ...

On Energy Proportionality and Time-Energy Performance of Heterogeneous Clusters
2016 IEEE International Conference on Cluster Computing (CLUSTER), 2016Energy efficiency is an area of growing importance in datacenters. While the energy proportionality wall poses a challenge to further improve the dynamic power range of servers, heterogeneous systems offer a new opportunity to achieve higher energy efficiency by improving the match between application workload demands on the large heterogeneous system ...

Energy Expenditure in the Performing Arts
Medical Problems of Performing Artists, 2011Two papers in this issue of MPPA examine energy expenditure while playing a wind instrument and dancing. Measurement of the amount of energy required to play an instrument, dance, or sing has been done in the past, but these two papers advance our understanding of how performing artists carry out their professional activities.

ENERGY: resources and building performance
2018The use of energy in buildings is a complex problem, but it can be reduced and alleviated by making appropriate decisions. Therefore, architects face a major and responsible task of designing the built environment in such a way that its energy dependence will be reduced to a minimum, while at the same time being able to provide comfortable living ...

Trading Memory for Performance and Energy
2011Managing extremely large amounts of data with high performance and low power consumption is very difficult. We look at this urgent problem from an architectural perspective and present our prototype design and implementation of a three-layer database storage system, which uses flash-based devices as an intermediate caching layer.

Analysis of Performance and Energy Consumption in the Cloud
2017We analyze here a cloud system represented by hysteresis multi server queueing system. It is characterized by forward and backward thresholds for activation and deactivation of block of servers representing a set of VMs (Virtual Machines). The system is represented by a complex Markov Chain which is difficult to analyse when the size of the system is ...

The measurement of energy performance
2012ADEME (the French national environmental and energy agency) develops tools in order to measure farm energy performance. The actual measurement is based on the total amount of energy consumed by farmers. The main objective of this paper is to propose an alternative method that can be used in order to improve this measurement. The alternative method that
