Future-proof NOW
Forecasts are always difficult, especially when they concern the future. This quote is alternatively attributed to Niels Bohr or Mark Twain. Heiko Ebermann's lecture will venture a look into the future by looking back at cooling solutions of the past. Trends in the current cooling infrastructure will also be critically examined. Liquid cooling takes up a large part of the lecture. Practical examples round off the lecture and underpin the optimistic outlook for the future of IT cooling.
