Online Dynamic Capacity Provisioning in Data Centers
- How many servers to be kept active
- How much workload to be delayed for energy saving while meeting every deadline.
- We present an offline LP formulation for capacity provisioning by dynamic deferral and give two online algorithms to:
- determine the capacity of the data center
- the assignment of workload to servers dynamically.
