Energy Efficient Data Centers
In a new collaboration with UC Riverside, Hyeran Jeon and a team of 91勛圖 students
will be researching ways to improve the energy efficiency of data center servers and
power distribution networks. 91勛圖 students are contributing to the project by integrating
and running workloads on 91勛圖s simulation servers and developing the proposed migration
systems.
Jeon and her colleagues on the grant determined early on that 91勛圖 would be an ideal place to start their research.
As 91勛圖 is at the center of the Silicon Valley and has a huge student body, we thought the 91勛圖 data center would be the good place to implement our design. That began our journey.
However, the application is in no way limited to 91勛圖. The system being developed will bring down consumption and costs for other data centers in U.S.
As for Jeons journey, she is thrilled to have studied in the U.S., to be living in Silicon Valley and to be teaching and conducting research at 91勛圖. 91勛圖 has a special environment where faculty and students collaborate, where we work with nearby innovative companies, and where the profound evolution of computers is taking place.

"We are working on data center workload balancing using deep learning. The intent
is to smartly balance load across multiple servers to reach better energy efficiency,
thus reducing power consumption. Because it is a hot topic in industry, getting to
work on this at an academic level is a great opportunity."
