Abstract

Cloud computing is a promising approach for delivering ICT services by improving the utilization of data centre resources. One candidate solution for accomplishing energy efficiency within clouds is the adoption of energy-aware pricing by the cloud service providers. In this paper, we compare the economic implications of the choice of pricing schemes under different scenarios.
