Population, consumption and resources: Ethical issues
Ecological Economics, 1998Abstract This article is about the concept of optimum population and consumption. Even though it is primarily concerned with foundational issues, the various ideas that have been discussed in the literature are tested in the context of economic models with limited resources. It is argued that, broadly speaking, existing theories of optimum population

Energy Resources and Their Consumption
2022Power is a significant cause of economic growth and crucial to the sustainability of the economy. Energy consumption is an indicator of a nation's economic growth. Economic growth is focused, among other aspects, on the long-term acquisition of affordable, existing resources, and their use does not pollute the environment.

Energy consumption awareness for resource-constrained devices
2016 European Conference on Networks and Communications (EuCNC), 2016The devices running embedded applications tend to be battery-powered, and the energy efficiency of their operations is an important enabler for the wide adoption of the Internet-of-Things. Optimization of energy usage depends on modelling power consumption.

CHERUB: power consumption aware cluster resource management
Cluster Computing, 2011This paper presents an evaluation of ACPI energy saving modes, and deduces the design and implementation of an energy saving daemon for clusters called cherub. The design of the cherub daemon is modular and extensible. Since the only requirement is a central approach for resource management, cherub is suited for Server Load Balancing (SLB) clusters ...

World Energy Resources and Consumption
1980Throughout the thousands of years prior to the industrialisation of societies, mankind’s requirements for energy have been met primarily by muscular effort, wind and water currents, fuel wood, direct solar warming and other ‘renewable’ sources, punctuated only occasionally by the use of minor outcrops of coal and oil for the high-temperature fires ...

Optimal Resource Consumption Control with Interval Restrictions
Journal of Applied and Industrial Mathematics, 2018Summary: Some method is developed for calculating the optimal resource consumption control with interval restrictions on the components of the control vector. The approach is based on the sequential adjustment of the values of a quasioptimal control actions up to their limit values.

Targets for Global Resource Consumption
2013Global warming, the overall extraction of minerals and the expansion of cultivated land for biomass harvest are growing globally. These “Big Three” represent key environmental pressures which may lead to a continuous degradation of the living environment, if not controlled at levels with acceptable low risk.
