Abstract

A time-aware application task scheduling system for a green data center (GDC) that includes a task scheduling processor coupled to one or more queue processors and an energy collecting processor connected to one or more renewable energy sources and a grid power source. The systems is capable of determining a service rate for a plurality of servers to process a plurality of application tasks in the GDC and scheduling, via processing circuitry, one or more of the application tasks to be executed in one or more of the servers at a rate according to a difference in an accumulated arriving rate for the plurality of application tasks into the one or more queues and a removal rate for the plurality of application tasks from the one or more queues. The system is further capable of removing the one or more application tasks from their associated queues for execution in the scheduled one or more servers.
