ITTC Project
Maximizing the Utilization of Renewable Energy to Optimize the Soft-Error Robustness of GPGPU-based Data Centers
Project Award Date: 05-01-2012
Description
The data centers consume tremendous amount of power with the rapid growth to support various services such as cloud computing. It will exacerbate the global energy crisis and lead to serious concerns on the environment and the climate change of our planet (e.g. global warming). Recently, renewable energy is receiving increased attentions due to its advantages such as absence of fuel cost and it is environmental friendly. The designers have started to consider using it to operate the data centers.
