Towards Greening MapReduce Clusters Considering Both Computation Energy and Cooling Energy

Increased processing power of MapReduce clusters generally enhances performance and availability at the cost of substantial energy consumption that often incurs higher operational costs (e.g., electricity bills) and negative environmental impacts (e.g., carbon dioxide emissions). There exist a few greening methods for computing clusters in the literature that focus mainly on computational energy consumption leaving cooling energy, which occupies...
