In this paper the authors detail the TREND meter, a tool for monitoring the power and the utilization of networked devices. Their solution is based on standard measurements and data export methods. The TREND meter provides graphed energy consumption and load information of each measured device. After detailing the TREND meter architecture, the authors reported the main results that they had obtained by collecting measurements from a variety of devices.

Abstract
In this paper the authors detail the TREND meter, a tool for monitoring the power and the utilization of networked devices. Their solution is based on standard measurements and data export methods. The TREND meter provides graphed energy consumption and load information of each measured device. After detailing the TREND meter architecture, the authors reported the main results that they had obtained by collecting measurements from a variety of devices. Their solution represents the starting point towards a more complex tool able to monitor a network infrastructure and to trigger energy saving techniques when traffic conditions change.
