    The energy consumption of mobile broadband networks is comparable to that of data centres.
  • The APROPOS project aims at decreasing energy consumption in both distributed computing and communications for cloud-based cyber-physical systems.
  • Luckily, in many parts of global data acquisition, transfer, computation, and storage systems, its possible to reduce accuracy to allow reduced energy and time consumption.
