Carbon-Aware Microservice Deployment for Optimal User Experience on a Budget
The carbon footprint of data centers has recently become a critical concern. So far, most carbon-aware strategies have focused on leveraging the flexibility of scheduling decisions for batch processing by shifting the time and location of workload executions. However, such approaches cannot be applied to service-oriented cloud applications, since they have to be reachable at every point in time and often at low latencies. We propose a carbon-aware approach for operating microservices under hour…

WattsOnAI: Measuring, Analyzing, and Visualizing Energy and Carbon Footprint of AI Workloads
The rapid advancement of AI, particularly large language models (LLMs), has raised significant concerns about the energy use and carbon emissions associated with model training and inference. However, existing tools for measuring and reporting such impacts are often fragmented, lacking systematic metric integration and offering limited support for correlation analysis among them. This paper presents WattsOnAI, a comprehensive software toolkit for the measurement, analysis, and visualization of …

Ichnos: A Carbon Footprint Estimator for Scientific Workflows
Scientific workflows facilitate the automation of data analysis, and are used to process increasing amounts of data. Therefore, they tend to be resource-intensive and long-running, leading to significant energy consumption and carbon emissions. With ever-increasing emissions from the ICT sector, it is crucial to quantify and understand the carbon footprint of scientific workflows. However, existing tooling requires significant effort from users - such as setting up power monitoring before execu…

Energy-Aware Workflow Execution: An Overview of Techniques for Saving Energy and Emissions in Scientific Compute Clusters
Scientific research in many fields routinely requires the analysis of large datasets, and scientists often employ workflow systems to leverage clusters of computers for their data analysis. However, due to their size and scale, these workflow applications can have a considerable environmental footprint in terms of compute resource use, energy consumption, and carbon emissions. Mitigating this is critical in light of climate change and the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions. In this chapte…
