ABSTRACT:
According to one embodiment, a system comprises a plurality of resources. The resources may be any limited-capacity computing resource that is capable of serving a computing demand of a resource user. A resource user refers to any entity which consumes computing capacity of a resource. The system comprises at least one power consumption profile associated with a respective resource user. The system also comprises at least one power management agent for measuring power consumption by ones of the plurality of resources in serving computing demands of the resource user, wherein said power consumption profile contains information based at least in part on the measured power consumption. The system also comprises at least one allocation agent for dynamically allocating the resource user to at least one of the resources based at least in part on the resource user's power consumption profile.
