Electrical Circuit Analogy-Based Maximum Latency Calculation Method of Internet Data Centers in Power-Communication Network

This letter has developed an electrical circuit analogy-based maximum latency calculation (MLC) method of the internet data center (IDC) in power-communication network. Firstly, by analogy with the circuit model, the basic concepts to describe information flow are defined, including information current, information resistance, information conductivity, and information voltage. Based on these concepts, the information processing model considering both channel blocking and user priority is established. By analogy with the electrical circuit, the information flow calculation laws are introduced to calculate the maximum latency of IDCs. Verification results show that the maximum latency of IDCs in power-communication network can be accurately calculated by the proposed MLC method.
