Overview
\"The trend is good right now, but it's questionable what it's going to look like in 5-10 years,\" says Dale Sartor, who oversees the Center of Expertise for Energy Efficiency in Data Centers at the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California. With the spectre of an energy-hungry future looming, scientists in academic labs and engineers at some of the world's wealthiest companies are exploring ways to keep the industry's environmental impact in check. Even in temperate climates, warm-water cooling has become the de facto solution for managing high-performance computers that are run fast and hot, including those in US Department of Energy labs and the Bavarian Academy of Sciences' SuperMUC supercomputer in Garching, Germany. POWER PLAY At their core, data centres are only as good as the processors they're made of - and there's scope for improvement there, too. Since the 1940s, the number of operations a computer can perform with each kilowatt hour (KWh) of energy has doubled about once every 1.6 years for peak performance and every 2.6 years for average performance.
