摘要： In a method for manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure containing one or more adaptive vent tiles, correlations between opening levels of the one or more adaptive vent tiles and an environmental condition at one or more heat dissipating devices are identified. In addition, one or more environmental conditions at locations proximate to or within the one or more heat dissipating devices are received and errors between the received one or more environmental conditions and one or more reference environmental conditions are identified. Moreover, opening levels for the one or more adaptive vent tiles are determined based upon the identified correlations and errors.

摘要： The present disclosure includes a system and method for apportioning power consumption. In an example of apportioning power consumption according to the present disclosure, a transaction mix for a service is determined (104, 204, 330, 420), component resource usage for each of a number of components that are used while completing the service is determined (106, 206, 108, 208, 422), and component power consumption for each of the number of components is determined by use of the component resource usage (334, 424).

摘要： A system and method for manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure containing a fluid moving device are disclosed that include identifying correlations between operational settings of the fluid moving device and environmental conditions resulting from changes to the operational settings. In addition, an environmental condition detected at a location proximate to or within the plenum following supply of fluid into the plenum by the fluid moving device is received and errors between the received environmental condition and a reference environmental condition are identified. Operational settings for the fluid moving device to achieve the reference environmental condition are determined based upon the identified correlations and errors.

摘要： Managing computer resources. Workload state information associated with one or more servers in a data center is accessed by a computer, the workload state information comprises workload placement on one or more servers, cooling conditions of the one or more servers, and performance requirements associated with a data center. Cooling state information of cooling resources associated with the one or more servers are accessed by the computer, the cooling state information comprises cooling conditions of the cooling resources. The workload state information and the cooling state information are compared by the computer. Based on the comparing, the computer generates workload repositioning instructions that instruct repositioning of workload on the one or more servers to meet the performance requirements.

摘要： A data center workload distribution management system includes a cooling cost engine to determine a cooling cost or cooling capacity for each of a plurality of zones of a data center and a workload distribution engine. The workload distribution engine is to identify the zone that has a lowest cooling cost and sufficient cooling capacity and also has sufficient processing capacity for a workload, determine a local cooling efficiency index for at least one location within the identified zone, and distribute the workload to the location having a local cooling efficiency index that indicates the highest cooling efficiency.

摘要： In a method for manipulating environmental conditions in an infrastructure containing one or more adaptive vent tiles, correlations between opening levels of the one or more adaptive vent tiles and an environmental condition at one or more heat dissipating devices are identified. In addition, one or more environmental conditions at locations proximate to or within the one or more heat dissipating devices are received and errors between the received one or more environmental conditions and one or more reference environmental conditions are identified. Moreover, opening levels for the one or more adaptive vent tiles are determined based upon the identified correlations and errors.
