Controlling Heat in Large Data Centers

Dr. Dobb's | Controlling Heat in Large Data Centers | June 9, 2009: "Approximately a third of the electricity consumed by large data centers doesn't power the computer servers that conduct online transactions, serve Web pages or store information. Instead, that electricity must be used for cooling the servers, a demand that continues to increase as computer processing power grows. And the trend toward cloud computing will expand the need for both servers and cooling."
