Abstract
Data centers can provide demand-side flexibility by shifting adjustable computing workloads, but price-aware scheduling must preserve service completion and control delay loss. This paper proposes reliability-oriented electricity-computing coordination for data centers. Under a seven-day minute-level setting, an FCFS-like baseline is compared with a price-aware model that constructs start-time candidates for urgent and normal tasks, minimizes combined energy and delay cost, and refines the schedule through local search and rolling-window mixed-integer linear programming. A Cost-Adjusted Operational Reliability Index (CORI) combines workload completion with energy and delay-related service costs. Both models complete the same workload and consume 22975.21 kWh. The collaborative model reduces energy cost from 9555.65 RMB to 9228.17 RMB, delay cost from 4950.00 RMB to 614.44 RMB, and total task cost from 14505.65 RMB to 9842.61 RMB (32.15%). CORI increases from 100.00 to 147.38, indicating improved scheduling resilience and cost-adjusted operational reliability under the adopted deadline and penalty settings.
Data centers can provide demand-side flexibility by coordinating computing workloads, cooling systems, and on-site energy resources. However, facility demand varies with information technology (IT) load and cooling operation, making a fixed power usage effectiveness (PUE) or a forecast independent of planned controls i...

The increasing penetration of renewable generation and the rapid growth of data-center demand require coordinated use of heterogeneous flexibility while respecting network operating limits. This study proposes a three-objective electricity–computing–carbon dispatch method that minimizes physical system cost, direct car...
Data centers are now the largest users of electricity, carbon, and water, driving rapid cloud computing growth and a global shift to renewable-powered, sustainable cloud infrastructure. The large-scale integration of solar and wind energy creates fundamental operational challenges due to their intermittency, uncertaint...
