As energy consumption of network systems grow, it is important for network administrators to monitor the power consumption of ICT devices connected to the network. Conventional monitoring of these devices burdens the administrators because they have to install power measurement tools on each device. In this paper, we propose a method to estimate power consumption of ICT devices utilizing only network traffic information. Our method can reduce the administrator's burdens because it only requires network traffic information that can be collected from a router or switch. |
