whitepaper This paper will examine this technology and discuss the acoustical benefits of a quieter and more efficient cooling system. Personal workstations have provided users with substantial increases in processing power over the past decade.
[16 May 2008]
whitepaper Energy efficiency is a top concern as IT managers struggle with rising power bills, cooling problems, usage limits imposed by local utilities, or requirements to deploy additional servers without expanding an existing data center or building a new...
[16 May 2008]
whitepaper In addition, cooling requirements for dense servers are driving power demand and taxing the normal datacenter operational procedures. This paper provides a framework for improving the energy efficiency of both new and existing datacenters.
[16 May 2008]
whitepaper A simple, more accurate efficiency model is described that provides a rational basis to identify and quantify waste in power and cooling equipment. Estimates of electrical losses are typically made by summing the inefficiencies of various...
[15 May 2008]
whitepaper Servers continue to proliferate, but they are often underutilized, leading to higher capital, maintenance, power, cooling, and software costs. IT engineers at Intel face the significant challenge of managing the cost and efficiency of the data...
[15 May 2008]
whitepaper This paper presents five strategies for increasing data center cooling efficiency. Coupled with emerging technologies such as higher-efficiency processors and new chip-based cooling technologies, these measures can keep energy costs in line as...
[14 May 2008]
whitepaper This stored cooling solution is designed to optimize the efficiency of equipment that is often overprovisioned and running at low utilization and efficiency. IBM IT Facilities Assessment, Design and Construction Services - data center stored...

whitepaper This paper provides ten approaches for increasing cooling efficiency, cooling capacity, and power density in existing data centers. However, depending on the deployment, they can present a significant cooling challenge.
[18 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Looming over the heads of any environmentally conscious company, is the threat of global warming. Considerable effort has been taken to decrease the carbon footprint of the organization through various means: paperless offices, hybrid company cars...
[11 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Third, concerns about power and cooling costs and general environmental inefficiency are leading to maximizing the efficiency of every system. Many IT executives today are looking at consolidating IT operations for several reasons.
[11 Apr 2008]
whitepaper These figures continue to rise as compute needs grow, density increases, and power and cooling demands climb. Intel sees many opportunities to improve energy efficiency in nearly every aspect of data center operation that consumes power.
[11 Apr 2008]
whitepaper This paper provides a ten-step approach for increasing cooling efficiency, cooling capacity, and power density in existing data centers. High-density servers present a significant cooling challenge. Vendors are now designing servers that can demand...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper This paper provides a ten-step approach on how to increase the cooling efficiency, the cooling capacity, and the power density of existing data centers. Vendors are now designing servers that will demand up to 20kW of cooling if installed in a...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Estimates of electrical losses typically are made by summing the inefficiencies of the various electrical devices, such as power and cooling equipment. The conventional models used to estimate electrical efficiency of data centers are grossly...
[10 Apr 2008]
whitepaper This paper presents a detailed quantitative efficiency comparison between the most efficient DC and AC power distribution methods, including an analysis of the effects of power distribution efficiency on the cooling power requirement and on total...
[09 Apr 2008]
Comment Powering and cooling of IT equipment can be done more efficiently in a data centre than in an uncontrolled environment. A lot can also be done in the data centre to reduce, or more effectively manage, electricity consumption, from simple steps such...
[07 Apr 2008]
whitepaper An appropriate specification for data center density should assure compatibility with anticipated high density loads, provide unambiguous instruction for design and installation of power and cooling equipment, prevent oversizing, and maximize...
[07 Apr 2008]
whitepaper Traditional data centers have been provisioned to supply 40 - 60 W per square foot, but densities of 20 - 25 kW per rack would require power and cooling capacity of up to 600 W per square foot - a level that typically exceeds acceptable efficiency...
