Abstract

We consider a system which has, in addition to an on-state, a set of energy-saving states. For each of these states the system has an associated energy cost and a cost to power up to the on-state. Requests for service, i.e. for when the device has to be in the on-state, are not known in advance; thus strategies for powering down are studied in the framework of online competitive analysis. We study a systems with a continuous infinite number of states where associated costs are given by two linear functions on the states and give strategies which are analyzed in terms of online competitive analysis.
