“…The variations in output parameters like PPC for BBALR can be seen in the graphs (Figures 12, 13, and 14). Due to the smaller reference power values, no significant variation could be observed in the PPC of the simulation for high traffic rates [12].…”

“…Adaptive link rates have the advantage of turning on only the required number of line cards to an active state, but adaptive link rates are not intended for burst-based transmission that guarantees assured energy savings. Burst-based adaptive link rate is a hybrid technique that collectively ensures the benefit of both [12]. In this technique, all the line cards sleep, as happens in burst transmission.…”

“…When comparing BBALR, the existing policies double its utilization or energy cost for higher traffic rates. The results of the simulation [12] are based on the increase of difference in mean interarrival time whose units are seconds, whereas the results of this work are based on units in microseconds. Because of this change, PPC, LUF, and LRR vary in magnitude with similar behaviors.…”

In recent times, energy consumption in communication media has been increasing drastically. In the literature, energy-saving techniques that enable network devices to enter sleep state or limit the data rate have been proposed to reduce energy costs. In our earlier work, we proposed an energy-saving technique called burst-based adaptive link rate (BBALR), the simulation of which assures increased energy savings. In this paper, we have emulated the hardware implementation of BBALR and compared its performance with the outputs of other prominent energy-saving policies based on dynamic link rate adaption. The energy savings are mapped from the measured sleep time and reference power values. We have used NetFPGA as the testbed, which is a research platform for building real-time network hardware prototypes.

SummaryRecent studies have shown that a large amount of energy consumption in the communication medium occurs at the data processing plane. The data plane executes the forwarding decisions in the routers and switches. Through initial studies, the line card was identified as the most granular component of the router and later forward engine, a sub component of line card has been recognized as the most power intensive component of routers. Fundamental techniques like link rate adaption, sleep and wake‐up have been imposed to reduce the energy at line cards and forward engines. On the other hand, router's architectures undergo drastic changes like empowering data plane with parallel processing due to the rise of gigabit routers. In this paper, to increase the degree of local autonomy and better energy savings, we have adopted the parallel processing design and imposed a variable amount of traffic on different line cards. The existing parallel forward engines perform load balancing in synchronous manner. In our design, asynchronous behavior is imposed such that every line card could independently decide to wake up or turn off their forward engine based on the traffic parameters. We have done simulations and witnessed increased energy savings (average sleeping time) without compromising the completion of lookup process.
