Host Chris Adams and guest Romain Jacob delve into the often-overlooked energy demands of networking infrastructure to discover A Greener Internet that Sleeps More. While AI and data centers usually dominate the conversation, networking still consumes significant power, comparable to the energy usage of entire countries. They discuss innovative practices to make the internet greener, such as putting networks to sleep during low usage periods and extending the life of hardware. Romain talks about his recent Hypnos paper, which won Best Paper at HotCarbon 2024. He shares his team's award-winning research on how energy demand for networking kit powering the internet can be reduced by simply by powering down links when not in use.

Chris Adams is joined by special guest Kate Goldenring, Senior Software Engineer at Fermyon. Together, they ask the real questions “is serverless computing the greener choice?” and “if so, under what circumstances is this true?” Tune in for an illuminating conversation on the current state, news, and future of green computing, digging into the topics of cloud computing, soft allocation, WebAssembly, and more.

A new study uses artificial intelligence to show that each of our ten fingerprints are remarkably similar to one another. Plus, honey could be the secret ingredient in building a more eco-friendly “memristor,” which transmits data through malleable pathways.Is Each Fingerprint On Your Hand Unique?We often think about each fingerprint as being completely unique, like a snowflake on the tip of your finger.But a new study shows that maybe each person's fingerprints are more similar to each other than we thought. Researchers trained artificial intelligence to identify if a thumbprint and a pinky print came from the same person. They found that each of a person's ten fingerprints are remarkably similar in the swirly center.Ira talks with study author Gabe Guo, an undergraduate at Columbia University majoring in computer science, based in New York City.In This Computer Component, Data Slides Through HoneyA honey bear is probably one of the weirder things you'd see in a science lab, especially in a lab making computer parts.“It's just processed, store-bought honey,” said Ph.D. student Zoe Templin. “Off the shelf — a little cute bear so we can put it in photos.”But for Templin and her colleagues at Washington State University, Vancouver, the honey is key.“It is cheap and it is easily accessible to everyone,” said master's student Md Mehedi Hassan Tanim.The honey also has natural chemical properties that make it a promising foundation for a new kind of environmentally friendly computer component — one that could make computing faster and more energy efficient while reducing the impact on the environment.Read the rest of this article on sciencefriday.com.Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Live from Las Vegas*,  Reimagining Cyber is back.In this episode Rob and Stan find out how CISOs can battle the cybersecurity challenges in sustainability and transformation projects.Their guest is Edward  Amoroso one of the world's first ever CISOs. Ed spent over 30 years at AT&T and since retiring in 2016 he has founded TAG Cyber LLC.  TAG concentrates on global cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and sustainability, making him the ideal guest for this episode: “[TAG] pick topics that we think are consequential to the world, things that have existential consequence if we get it wrong.  In cyber we spend out whole life worrying about the implications of attacks on critical infrastructure and so on. We've all seen the beginnings of that. AI right now is certainly existential, I hope in a good way.  I hope we we find ways to make use of AI to improve our world. There's certainly every reason to believe that we can but there's also a dark side to any innovation. Then on the sustainability front the sort of the clarity that's emerged in the last five years around how important it is to rethink manufacturing, rethink the way we do transportation and more than anything rethink energy. So all of those things come together in topics that are prone to misinformation, topics that businesses are seeing as really important.”Some other key quotes from the episode:"We've been doing cyber for 30 years, we've learned that if you're doing something consequential or potentially vulnerable, you probably ought to have one or two board members who help to set up the culture and mood and priorities.""One of the reasons we focus on artificial intelligence is because I think the prospects are spectacular for artificial intelligence as a base for having a really amazing defense, cyber defense that scales.""We're dealing with a generation of young people that were raised to think very creatively. We in cyber just haven't learned these lessons and it's urgent.""Being critical is an act of respect. It's showing non-respect when we just say, “thank you for doing what you do” without taking a moment and saying, “let's make this better.”""I don't know too many people that are as vocal as me. I get away with it because I'm old. I just say what I'm saying because I want to make it better." "I'm not a big fan of the big analyst firms, I think most of them just rehash a lot of… I would use a curse word here that describes manure .It's not even data science.

Il démarre chez Qarnot, société qui vise à utiliser la chaleur dégagée par les cartes mères de serveurs informatiques pour se chauffer (pour en savoir plus sur Qarnot, vous pouvez également écouter l'épisode CTO # 35 avec Clément Pellegrini). Après cette expérience, il cofonde Dametis.    Dametis propose à ses clients industriels de diminuer les gaspillages et de faire des économies de matières premières et d'énergie. Dametis utilise une multitude de capteurs pour mesurer, monitorer, analyser les coûts et les pertes de matières premières. Leur expertise permet à leurs clients de réaliser des gains de plus de 10%.    J'ai eu souvent l'occasion d'échanger avec des CTO dans des start'up - scale up avec des levées de fonds comme accélérateur fort. Cette fois-ci, nous sommes dans un contexte différent avec une société qui croit de manière organique, sans accélérateur de ce type et avec un business rentable dès aujourd'hui. La croissance de l'équipe IT suit cette croissance organique.    Plus atypique, Dametis naît sur une activité qui, pour des raisons d'ordre légales, était vouée dès le début à disparaître. Dès la création de la société, il y a un objectif et une petite course contre la montre pour faire pivoter l'activité “vache à lait” vers la future activité “star” qui se basera sur le soft dont Nicolas a la charge.    Dans cet épisode vous découvrirez Nicolas, dont les contraintes sont liées aux gros volumes de données qu'il traite mais aussi au fait qu'il doit faire basculer l'activité et la culture de la société historiquement non informatique vers une activité qui se rapproche de l'édition logicielle.Hébergé par Ausha.
