Greenpeace is calling on technology giants like Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo and Facebook to power their data centers with renewable energy sources. Their electricity often comes from utility companies that generate power from burning coal, says the group. Greenpeace estimates that data centres will use 1,963 billion kilowatt hours of electricity by 2020. That is more than the power … [Read more...]
Toward Liquid-Cooled Computers
Experts say a new technique called superwicking could provide a better way to cool computer hardware and could help remove one of the biggest barriers to a new generation of high-powered microprocessors. And in the meantime, it could prove a boon to tiny fluid-based sensors. Optical physicists Chunlei Guo and Anatoliy Vorobyev of the University of Rochester in New York state … [Read more...]
