A presentation I gave at IEEE Cloud 2012 – one of the premier conferences on Cloud Computing for a paper by Ali Khajeh-Hoessini and myself.The paper is entitled “CloudMonitor: Profiling Power Usage” and discusses the CloudMonitor software and how it could be used to create an energy tariff for Cloud providers.I’m very grateful to my supervisor Prof Ian Sommerville for encouraging me to go to the conference, to LSCITS for funding the trip and for Google for giving me the time off!More information on CloudMonitor can be found here: http://jws7.net/cloudmonitor

Previous work
• by Bohra, Ata & Chaundary - VMeter
• linear power model is workload-specific
• our work is workload-independent
• calculate once - valid for all machines of the same configuration
