title:Reducing Network Power Consumption Using Dynamic Link Metric Method and Power Off Links
authors：Zhou Jia，Gao Shan，Aya Tsurusaki，Naoaki Yamanaka
abstract：According to several studies, the network power consumption is up to 10% of the worldwide energy consumption. To reduce the network power comsumption, we propose a novel approach to address the problem. The proposed approach dynamically modifies the weights of links and makes traffic aggregated to certain links and sets some links which load no traffic Power-Off. We did some network simulations, and our results indicate it gets good effect on reducing the network power consumption.
