Abstract

Cloud computing is an emerging technology in the field of computing that provides access to a wide range of shared resources. The rapid growth of cloud computing has led to establishing numerous data centers around the world. As data centers consume huge amounts of power, enhancing their power efficiency has become a major challenge in cloud computing. This paper surveys previous studies and researches that aimed to improve power efficiency of virtualized data centers. This survey is a valuable guide for researchers in the field of power efficiency in virtualized data centers following the cloud computing model.
