Boosted race trees for low energy classification

The Morning Paper

Boosted race trees for low energy classification Tzimpragos et al., We don’t talk about energy as often as we probably should on this blog, but it’s certainly true that our data centres and various IT systems consume an awful lot of it. One efficient way of doing that in analog hardware is the use of current-starved inverters.

Reducing Embodied Carbon is Important

ACM Sigarch

Specifically, we agree that one of the grand challenges of sustainable computing is matching electrical load with the availability of low-carbon electricity. Chien, we assert that it is impractical and insufficient to rely on quickly deploying renewable energy to decarbonize manufacturing. Unlike Prof. Therefore, the $1.4B

Measuring Carbon is Not Enough?—?Unintended Consequences

Adrian Cockcroft

Let’s start by assuming that you have figured out a way to estimate the energy consumption and carbon footprint for a workload that is sensitive enough to register changes in the way you run the workload. The first thing to understand is that doing things consumes time and energy and has a carbon footprint of its own.

Achieving 100Gbps intrusion prevention on a single server

The Morning Paper

Improving the efficiency with which we can coordinate work across a collection of units (see the Universal Scalability Law ). FPGAs are chosen because they are both energy efficient and available on SmartNICs). The FPGA hardware really wants to operate in a highly parallel mode using fixed size data structures.
