AutoDC – Autonomous “Smart” Datacenters for long term deployment

The project will provide an innovative design framework for autonomous data centers. An autonomous datacenter should be able to, without any human intervention, from a best effort perspective continue its operation independent of contextual interference, such as intermittent power failure, failing components, overheating etc.
