DKM department Seminar
This Thursday 24th of April, we welcome Anne-Cécile at 10h30 in Aurigny for the DKM seminar. Anne-Cécile is a research scientist (Directrice de recherche) at CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in the Magellan team at IRISA. Her main research topics are energy-efficiency and environmental impacts of distributed systems, including cloud infrastructures, telecommunication networks, and smart grids.

Présentation d'Anne-Cécile ORGERIE ( Magellan) - Jeudi 24 avril 2025 - Salle Aurigny

Distributed systems, such as Clouds or data centers, are increasingly spanning worldwide, with digital services hosted all around the globe and often belonging to complex systems, utilizing many other services and hardware resources themselves. Along with this increase comes an alarming growth of Cloud devices and their related energy consumption. Despite the distributed systems’ complexity, understanding how they consume energy is important in order to hunt wasted Joules and reduce their environmental impact. This talk will deal with measuring the energy consumption of distributed systems and deriving models from these measurements to evaluate their energy consumption and their environmental impact.
