Abstract:
With power and cooling becoming an increasingly costly part of the operating budget of a server, the old trend of striving for higher performance with little regard for power is over. Emerging semiconductor process technologies, multicore architectures, and new interconnect technology provide an avenue for future servers to become low power, compact, and possibly mobile. This talk is a follow-on from the talk I gave several months ago entitled: "PicoServer - Building a Compact Energy Efficient Multiprocessor." In the talk we will examine how ensembles of PicoServers can be combined into standard rack units to create servers that have the potential to significantly improve the power efficiency of data centers.

Bio:
Prof. Trevor Mudge received the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of Illinois, Urbana, in 1977. Since then, he has been on the faculty of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Three years ago he was named the first Bredt Family Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science after concluding a ten year term as the Director of the Advanced Computer Architecture Laboratory -- a group of about 8 faculty and 80 graduate students. He is author of numerous papers on computer architecture, programming languages, VLSI design, and computer vision. He has also chaired 33 theses in these research areas. In addition to faculty position, he runs Idiot Savants, a chip design consultancy. Trevor Mudge is a Fellow of the IEEE, a member of the ACM, the IET, and the British Computer Society. |
