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. ASPLOS’19. One such possible representation is pure analog signalling. Introducing race logic.

Effectively automating IT processes is key to addressing the challenges of  complex cloud environments. Relying on manual processes results in outages, increased costs, and frustrated customers. These three types of AI used together enable more effective IT automation than a single form of AI on its own. But what is AIOps, exactly?

Gerry McGovern asked if I had any insight into energy consumption and websites. He was wondering about the specifics of web tech, like… If you do this in HTML it will consume 3× energy but if you do it in JavaScript it will consume 10 ×. Things that lead to poor performance are things that take energy. Imagine images.
