Due to the continuous growth of customer population, the spreading of broadband access, the increase in energy price, and the expanding number of services being offered by telecoms and providers, energy efficiency issue has become a high-priority objective for wired networks and services infrastructures. Current network devices are well-known...

In this paper, we focus on energy-aware devices able to reduce their energy requirements by adapting their performance. We consider the device to be able to save energy through two main energy-aware primitives, namely, low power idle and power scaling. In such an environment, we propose a novel and original model for accurately representing how...
