1. A method for providing aggregate power consumption information for a plurality of data processing systems interconnected in a network to form an assemblage of data processing systems, said method comprising the steps of:

  • A) receiving a plurality of recorded power consumption files from each of the data processing systems, each file including a system identifier, a time interval consisting of an interval begin time and an interval end time, and an average power consumption value for that data processing system during that time interval, the recorded power files time intervals for each data processing system being unique in relation to time intervals for recorded power files of other data processing systems; and

    B) summing the power consumption for each data processing system for selected time units to provide an aggregate assemblage power consumption.
