More computing, less energy

achievements, memory, research, servers, thermalaware

Today’s data centres have an efficiency problem – much of their energy is used not to process data, but to keep the servers cool. A new server architecture under development by the EU-funded COMPUSAPIEN project could solve this. © cherezoff / Adobe Stock As the digital revolution continues to accelerate, so too does our demand (…)

Servers designed to look like humans

research, servers, thermalaware

David Atienza believes that when it comes to IT systems, everything that can be done locally, should be. That includes processing data where they are generated – thereby substantially reducing the amount of power required. EPFL’s Embedded Systems Laboratory (ESL) is studying two major energy-related problems with servers. The first is that they aren’t being (…)
