    Der Glaube an die Machbarkeit der sogenannten Energiewende durch die volatilen Energieerzeuger Windkraft und Photovoltaik wird genährt durch das trügerische Arbeiten mit Mittelwerten, das Täuschen mit statistischen Falschangaben sowie das Weglassen wichtiger Konsequenzen.Auch der Umgang mit den Größenordnungen und die Umrechnung zwischen Mega, Giga, Tera bereitet vielfach etliche Probleme und führt daher zu unglaublichen Trugschlüssen in Bezug auf die Machbarkeit und Durchführung der Energiewende, ganz zu schweigen von den technischen und ökonomischen Konsequenzen.Die gegenwärtig beschrittenen Wege führen in ein unausweichliches Chaos, nämlich den Verlust einer zuverlässigen und bezahlbaren Energieversorgung, die für eine Industrienation unverzichtbar ist.Im vorliegenden Buch möchten die Autoren die Leser durch sorgfältig beschriebene Analysen auf der Basis von Daten offizieller Stellen mitnehmen, damit sie sich ein eigenes Urteil über die sogenannte Energiewende und deren Konsequenzen bilden können.

    This book addresses the urgent issue of massive and inefficient energy consumption by data centers, which have become the largest co-located computing systems in the world and process trillions of megabytes of data every second. Dynamic provisioning algorithms have the potential to be the most viable and convenient of approaches to reducing data center energy consumption by turning off unnecessary servers, but they incur additional costs from being unable to properly predict future workload demands that have only recently been mitigated by advances in machine-learned predictions.This book explores whether it is possible to design effective online dynamic provisioning algorithms that require zero future workload information while still achieving close-to-optimal performance. It also examines whether characterizing the benefits of utilizing the future workload information can then improve the design of online algorithms with predictions in dynamic provisioning. The book specifically develops online dynamic provisioning algorithms with and without the available future workload information. Readers will discover the elegant structure of the online dynamic provisioning problem in a way that reveals the optimal solution through divide-and-conquer tactics. The book teaches readers to exploit this insight by showing the design of two online competitive algorithms with competitive ratios characterized by the normalized size of a look-ahead window in which exact workload prediction is available.
