Abstract :
With the wide proliferation of high-performance Information and Communication Technology (ICT) devices, power consumption in the networking field has become a paramount issue. This paper focuses on data transmission between two end hosts and proposes a novel implementation model from the viewpoint of power efficiency during data transmission. Through inter-component coordination and traffic-driven control of power-efficient components, significant power saving is anticipated without any influence on the data transmission throughput. Experimental results verify the feasibility of the implementation model, and show that by using this implementation model, more power can be saved than in traditional approaches, which are based solely on individual components.
