Power management is an expensive and important issue for large computational infrastructures such as datacenters, large clusters, and computational grids. However, measuring energy consumption of scalable systems may be impractical due to both cost and complexity for deploying power metering devices on a large number of machines. In this paper, we propose the use of information about resource utilization (e.g. processor, memory, disk operations, and network traffic) as proxies for estimating power consumption. We employ machine learning techniques to estimate power consumption using such information which are provided by common operating systems. Experiments with linear regression, regression tree, and multilayer perceptron on data from different hardware resulted into a model with 99.94% of accuracy and 6.32 watts of error in the best case.

The energy consumption of the HVAC system accounts for a significant portion of the energy consumption of the public building system, and using an efficient energy consumption prediction model can assist it in carrying out effective energy-saving tra nsformation. Unlike the traditional energy consumption prediction model, this paper extracts features from large data sets using XGBoost, trains them separately to obtain multiple models, then fuses them with LightGBMs independent prediction results using MAE, infers energy consumption related variables, and successfully applies this model to the self-developed Internet of Things platform.
The vast majority of todays mobile malware targets Android devices. This has pushed the research effort in Android malware analysis in the last years. An important task of malware analysis is the classification of malware samples into known families. Static malware analysis is known to fall short against techniques that change static characteristics of the malware (e.g. code obfuscation), while dynamic analysis has proven effective against such techniques. To the best of our knowledge, the most notable work on Android malware family classification purely based on dynamic analysis is DroidScribe. With respect to DroidScribe, our approach is easier to reproduce. Our methodology only employs publicly available tools, does not require any modification to the emulated environment or Android OS, and can collect data from physical devices. The latter is a key factor, since modern mobile malware can detect the emulated environment and hide their malicious behavior. Our approach relies on resource consumption metrics available from the proc file system. Features are extracted through detrended fluctuation analysis and correlation. Finally, a SVM is employed to classify malware into families. We provide an experimental evaluation on malware samples from the Drebin dataset, where we obtain a classification accuracy of 82%, proving that our methodology achieves an accuracy comparable to that of DroidScribe. Furthermore, we make the software we developed publicly available, to ease the reproducibility of our results.
The world is increasingly urbanizing and the building industry accounts for more than 40% of energy consumption in the United States. To improve urban sustainability, many cities adopt ambitious energy-saving strategies through retrofitting existing buildings and constructing new communities. In this situation, an accurate urban building energy model (UBEM) is the foundation to support the design of energy-efficient communities. However, current UBEM are limited in their abilities to capture the inter-building interdependency due to their dynamic and non-linear characteristics. Those models either ignored or oversimplified these building interdependencies, which can substantially affect the accuracy of urban energy modeling. To fill the research gap, this study proposes a novel data-driven UBEM synthesizing the solar-based building interdependency and spatial-temporal graph convolutional network (ST-GCN) algorithm. Especially, we took a university campus located in downtown Atlanta as an example to predict the hourly energy consumption. Furthermore, we tested the feasibility of the proposed model by comparing the performance of the ST-GCN model with other common time-series machine learning models. The results indicate that the ST-GCN model overall outperforms all others. In addition, the physical knowledge embedded in the model is well interpreted. After discussion, it is found that data-driven models integrated engineering or physical knowledge can significantly improve the urban building energy simulation.
The enormous power consumption of Bitcoin has led to undifferentiated discussions in science and practice about the sustainability of blockchain and distributed ledger technology in general. However, blockchain technology is far from homogeneous - no t only with regard to its applications, which now go far beyond cryptocurrencies and have reached businesses and the public sector, but also with regard to its technical characteristics and, in particular, its power consumption. This paper summarizes the status quo of the power consumption of various implementations of blockchain technology, with special emphasis on the recent Bitcoin Halving and so-called zk-rollups. We argue that although Bitcoin and other proof-of-work blockchains do indeed consume a lot of power, alternative blockchain solutions with significantly lower power consumption are already available today, and new promising concepts are being tested that could further reduce in particular the power consumption of large blockchain networks in the near future. From this we conclude that although the criticism of Bitcoins power consumption is legitimate, it should not be used to derive an energy problem of blockchain technology in general. In many cases in which processes can be digitised or improved with the help of more energy-efficient blockchain variants, one can even expect net energy savings.
In informal learning scenarios the popularity of multimedia content, such as video tutorials or lectures, has significantly increased. Yet, the users interactions, navigation behavior, and consequently learning outcome, have not been researched exten sively. Related work in this field, also called search as learning, has focused on behavioral or text resource features to predict learning outcome and knowledge gain. In this paper, we investigate whether we can exploit features representing multimedia resource consumption to predict of knowledge gain (KG) during Web search from in-session data, that is without prior knowledge about the learner. For this purpose, we suggest a set of multimedia features related to image and video consumption. Our feature extraction is evaluated in a lab study with 113 participants where we collected data for a given search as learning task on the formation of thunderstorms and lightning. We automatically analyze the monitored log data and utilize state-of-the-art computer vision methods to extract features about the seen multimedia resources. Experimental results demonstrate that multimedia features can improve KG prediction. Finally, we provide an analysis on feature importance (text and multimedia) for KG prediction.
