Abstract

An approach is provided for providing energy optimization in multi-level distributed computations. A distributed computation energy optimization platform determines energy availability information associated with at least one level of a computational architecture executing at least portion of one computation closure. The distributed computation energy optimization platform also determines energy consumption information associated with the at least portion of one computation closure. The distributed computation energy optimization platform further processes and/or facilitates a processing of the energy availability information, the energy consumption information, or a combination thereof to determine whether to migrate the at least portion of one computation closure to at least one other level of the computational architecture.
