A Vertical Approach to Designing and Managing Sustainable Heterogeneous Edge Data Centers
The increasing demand for Artificial Intelligence (AI) computing poses significant environmental challenges, with both operational and embodied carbon emissions becoming major contributors. This paper presents a carbon-aware holistic methodology for designing and managing sustainable Edge Data Centers (EDCs), based on three design principles that challenge the state-of-the-art optimization paradigms. Our approach employs vertical integration across the architecture, system, and runtime layers, …
