CAS: Carbon-Aware Strategies (for containerized services)

To run the current app:

$ docker-compose build
$ docker-compose up

Then, you check that different strategies get invoked by repeatedly invoking the service's GET endpoint:

$ curl 127.0.0.1:50000

## Notes on prototypes

• PolicyMaker gets two CSVs (timestamp,carbon,reqs and strategy,duration,error) and outputs a CSV (timestamp,strategy)
• Carbon-aware service takes CSV timestamp,strategy and enforces strategies based on actual time (to be mocked for experiments)

## TODO

• preprocess data with clustering

Notes

• use pyca as reference of existing source for energy mix
• use M. Aiello et al references for showing that co2 can be measured
• mention that we are inspired by something like approximate computing
• mention/demonstrate "temporal shifting" (in addition to "precision shifting")
• mention that we enable (through query params) to explicitly ask for running the app in full power: ?green=false
