n important goal towards the design of Future Networks is to achieve the best ratio of performance to energy consumption and at the same time assure manageability. This paper presents a general problem formulation for Energy-Aware Traffic Engineering and proposes a distributed, heuristic Energy-Aware Traffic Engineering scheme (ETE) that provides load balancing and energy-awareness in accordance with the operator's needs. Simulation results of ETE compared to the optimal network performance confirm the capability of ETE to meeting the needs of Future Networks.
