On-site Cogeneration for Reducing Data Center Primary Energy Use
Dustin W. Demetriou, PhD Email: dwdemetr@us.ibm.com As most readers are aware, the data center industry has put an increased focus on energy efficiency and environmental impact. Data centers in the United States are estimated to consume nearly 2% of the total electricity. The de facto metric used in the data center industry to evaluate energy efficiency has been the Power Usage … [Read more...]
An Additive Design Methodology for Heatsink Geometry Topology Identification
Introduction Established heatsink manufacturing processes such as extrusion, casting and milling constrain the achievable topology and geometry of the heatsink. The advent of metallic 3D printing (additive manufacture) processes such as selective laser melting (SLM) may remove many of these constraints, forcing the designer to reconsider the approach taken to determine a … [Read more...]

University Produces Smart Compliers to Assist Research During ‘Dark Silicon’ Era
Researchers from Lancaster University believe a ‘dark silicon’ era is rapidly approaching. This era suggests more than 80 percent of computer processors’ transistors will be turned off and ‘remain dark’ in order to prevent the chips from overheating. “Hardware design is rapidly evolving to prevent this need to 'power down' transistors and coming up with innovative solutions. … [Read more...]
