Abstract
A system comprising a group of computers including a group power controller is provided. Each computer of the group has a performance monitor for monitoring a measure of performance of the computer. The measure of performance is the value of at least one performance metric of the computer excluding contributions to the activity metric(s) of one or more predetermined activities. The group power controller is configured to allocate to the computers of the group shares of a maximum power consumption of the group. The shares are allocated in dependence on the monitored measures of performance. Each computer of the group has an individual power controller configured to limit the power consumption of the computer to the share allocated by the group power controller.
