摘要:
In a method for managing a facility that is to receive resources from a first resource supply, a supply of resources available from the first resource supply is predicted for a predetermined period of time. In addition, a demand for resources in the facility during the predetermined period of time is predicted. A capacity schedule for the facility is planned to meet a predefined operational goal, in which the plan of the capacity schedule uses as inputs, the predicted supply of resources available from the first resource supply and the predicted demand for resources in the facility during the predetermined period of time. Moreover, a determination as to whether the planned capacity schedule meets the predefined operational goal is made.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to control fluid flow in a data center are disclosed herein. An example method disclosed herein comprises sensing a condition of a fluid in a first contained aisle on a first side of data center equipment, the fluid in the first contained aisle substantially isolated from a second contained aisle on a second side of the data center equipment, and controlling a vent to alter the fluid flow between the first contained aisle and the second contained aisle based on the sensed condition.

Systems and methods of managing multiple cooling systems in a facility are disclosed. An example method may include evaluating efficiency of multiple cooling systems for a runtime operating condition. The method may also include selecting an efficient operating configuration of the multiple cooling systems for the runtime operating condition.

In a method for distributing cooling resources to a plurality of locations using a plurality of hierarchically identified cooling microgrids, conditions detected at the plurality of locations are received. Each level of the hierarchically identified cooling microgrids is a plurality of resource actuators configured to vary distribution of the cooling resources. Settings for the plurality of resource actuators in each of the levels in the cooling microgrid hierarchy that substantially maintain conditions at the plurality of locations within predetermined ranges are determined using a processor, while substantially optimizing at least one measure of performance associated with supplying the cooling resources to the plurality of locations.

In a method for generating a resource management plan for an infrastructure, a resource supply available from a combination of resource sources is determined, an operation of the infrastructure in performing an objective using the determined supply of resources is simulated, in which the simulation is to simulate resource demand of a plurality of infrastructure components in performing the objective, a metric(s) associated with operating the infrastructure based upon the simulation is determined, a determination as to whether the metric(s) satisfies a predetermined goal(s) is made, the resources supplied and/or the simulation of the resource demand of the plurality of infrastructure components is modified in response to the at least one metric failing to satisfy the predetermined goal(s), and a resource management plan for the infrastructure that has been determined to result in the metric(s) satisfying the predetermined goal(s) is generated.

A system for managing distribution of a cooling medium includes a sensor configured to detect a condition, a first agent configured to receive the detected condition and to determine whether a characteristic of the cooling medium controlled via a first actuator is to be manipulated based upon the detected condition. The system also includes a second agent configured to receive at least one of the detected condition and the flow manipulation determination of the first actuator and to determine whether a characteristic of the cooling medium controlled by a second actuator is to be manipulated based upon the at least one of the detected condition and the characteristic manipulation determination of the first actuator.

In a method for managing energy demand in an infrastructure, a coefficient of performance (COP) of the infrastructure as a function of time is determined. The COP is a measure of efficiency of the infrastructure. In addition, an energy demand on the infrastructure as a function of time is determined and an energy demand schedule for the infrastructure that temporally reallocates the energy demand based upon the determined COP of the infrastructure is determined.

In a method of synthesizing components to design a system meeting an exergy loss target value, one or more candidate sets of components are synthesized and an exergy loss value for each of the one or more candidate sets of components are calculated. A determination as to whether at least one of the candidate set of components meets the exergy loss target value is made and at least one candidate set of components determined to meet the exergy loss target value is identified as the set of components for use in the design of the system.

In one implementation, an interactive service management system includes a performance profile module and a performance evaluation module. The performance profile modules defines a performance measure of an interactive service based on a quality assessment associated with the interactive service. The performance evaluation module compares the performance measure with performance target associated with the interactive service, and modifies the performance target associated with the interactive service based on the comparison of the performance measure and the performance target.
