  1. Are these slides parked someplace? Unfortunately the floorplan for “Data Center Now” is shown only momentarily around 6:37.

    Interesting talk with some areas for questions:
    –CFD used to model airflows? Thermal imaging was interesting.
    –didn’t appear that their was row containment
    –voltages to rack currently?
    –power cost per kw-hour?
    –if the whole campus not just the computer center, is out of chilled water and the campus is charged for peak usage, why not remote the computing and use Research/Education fiber to connect to the remote site?
