As the increasing IT energy consumption emerged as a prominent issue, computer system energy consumption monitoring and optimization has gradually become a significant research forefront. However, most existing energy monitoring methods are limited to hardware-based measurement or coarse-grained energy consumption estimation. They cannot provide fine-grained energy consumption data (i.e., component energy consumption) and high-scalability for distributed cloud environments. In this article, the authors first study widely-used power models of CPUs, memory and hard disks. Then, following an investigation into disk power behaviors in sequential I/O and random I/O, they propose an improved I/O-mode aware disk power model with multiple variables and thresholds. They developed EnergyMeter, a monitoring software utility that can provide accurate power estimate by exploiting a multi-component power model. Experiments based on PCMark prove that the average error of EnergyMeter is merely 5% under a variety of workloads

This research provides an insight on the performances of machine learning (ML)-based algorithms for the estimation of the energy consumption in metal forming processes and is applied to the radial-axial ring rolling process. To define the mutual influence between ring geometry, process settings, and ring rolling mill geometries with the resulting energy consumption, measured in terms of the force integral over the processing time (FIOT), FEM simulations have been implemented in the commercial SW Simufact Forming 15. A total of 380 finite element simulations with rings ranging from 650 mm < DF < 2000 mm have been implemented and constitute the bulk of the training and validation datasets. Both finite element simulation settings (input), as well as the FI (output), have been utilized for the training of eight machine learning models, implemented with Python scripts. The results allow defining that the Gradient Boosting (GB) method is the most reliable for the FIOT prediction in forming processes, being its maximum and average errors equal to 9.03% and 3.18%, respectively. The trained ML models have been also applied to own and literature experimental cases, showing a maximum and average error equal to 8.00% and 5.70%, respectively, thus proving once again its reliability.

In this paper, we propose an energy efficient SW based approximate 4:2 compressor comprising a 3-input and a 5-input Majority gate. We validate our proposal by means of micromagnetic simulations, and assess and compare its performance with one of the state-of-the-art SW, 45nm CMOS, and Spin-CMOS counterparts. The evaluation results indicate that the proposed compressor consumes 31.5\% less energy in comparison with its accurate SW design version. Furthermore, it has the same energy consumption and error rate as the approximate compressor with Directional Coupler (DC), but it exhibits 3x lower delay. In addition, it consumes 14% less energy, while having 17% lower average error rate than the approximate 45nm CMOS counterpart. When compared with the other emerging technologies, the proposed compressor outperforms approximate Spin-CMOS based compressor by 3 orders of magnitude in term of energy consumption while providing the same error rate. Finally, the proposed compressor requires the smallest chip real-estate measured in terms of devices.

Abstract The urban climate and outdoor air quality of cities that have a positive thermal balance depending on the thermal consumptions of buildings cause an increase of the urban heat island and global warming effects. The aim of this work has been to develop an energy balance using the energy consumption data of the district heating network. The here presented engineering energy model is at a neighborhood scale, and the energy-use results have been obtained from a heat balance of residential buildings, by means of a quasi-steady state method, on a monthly basis. The modeling approach also considers the characteristics of the urban context that may have a significant effect on its energy performance. The model includes a number of urban variables, such as solar exposition and thermal radiation lost to the sky of the built environment. This methodology was applied to thirty-three 1 km × 1 km meshes in the city of Turin, using the monthly energy consumption data of three consecutive heating seasons. The results showed that the model is accurate for old built areas; the average error is 10% for buildings constructed before 1970, while the error reaches 20% for newer buildings. The importance and originality of this study are related to the fact that the energy balance is applied at neighborhood scale and urban parameters are introduced with the support of a GIS tool. The resulting engineering models can be applied as a decision support tool for citizens, public administrations, and policy makers to evaluate the distribution of energy consumptions and the relative GHG emissions to promote a more sustainable urban environment. Future researches will be carried out with the aim of introducing other urban variables into the model, such as the canyon effect and the presence of vegetation.

Abstract The popularity of smart home equipment has led to higher requirements for equipment automation operation and maintenance. However, the energy consumption status and hidden faults of household equipment cannot be controlled in time only by using traditional monitoring methods. Therefore, this paper proposes a methods of power analysis for smart home appliances based on SSA-TCN using the energy consumption data of smart home appliances. The effective information of the data is extracted through the SSA singular spectrum analysis method, and the data sequence is input into the sequential convolutional network for judgment, so that the energy consumption status and working status of the equipment is obtained. The actual data is used as the training set and the test set to verify the recognition rate of the model. The experimental results show that the recognition rate of the method is about 82%, which provides an effective way for equipment automation and intelligent operation and maintenance.

Abstract Due to their high power density, hydraulic systems are increasingly adapted for human scale devices. For example, commercial and utility electricians use electrohydraulic cutting and crimping tools, rather than human powered tools, to cut and crimp wires that exceed 25mm in diameter. These tools greatly reduce worker-related fatigue and strain-type injuries. To improve electrohydraulic tool technology, there is a need to increase the number of applications from a single battery charge. This paper develops a high fidelity nonlinear lumped parameter model of an electrohydraulic crimping hand tool used by professional electricians. The eleventh-order model can predict tool performance with an average error of 6.9% and 4.4% with respect to the maximum energy consumption and crimp time, respectively. Simulation studies were conducted to investigate reducing the energy consumption of the tool. An independent parameter sweep was performed on the pump piston diameter. The gear ratio was a dependent parameter linked through the maximum motor torque. Increasing the pump piston diameter while increasing the gear ratio was shown to decrease the energy consumption of the tool during crimping applications. Simulations suggest that up to 30% energy can be saved per crimp by increasing the pump piston diameter and gear train ratio.
