SXSW Adds Digital Convergence Panels

The Digital Convergence Initiative (DCI) announced it is organizing a conference track for SxSWi, the South by Southwest Interactive Festival, ground zero for the digital creatives who push the cutting edge of technological change, March 10-14, 2006, in Austin, Texas.

DCI's conference track features 12 panels between March 11 and March 14 addressing "Digital Convergence and Creativity" (March 11-12) and "Digital Convergence and Commerce" (March 13-14).

Aimed at the creators of content, inventors of technology, and the entrepreneurs and investors who create new businesses and industries, the panels explore digital convergence, a process that flattens and blurs the barriers between formerly discrete business sectors -- film, video, games, semiconductors, training, education, telecomm and wireless services, music, entertainment, healthcare and medical devices and services, computers and personal devices, home electronics, information technology, security, digital rights, advertising and mass media, and software development.

All the panels are listed at http://dcitexas.org/sxsw-sessions.html

AI-Driven Data Center Liquid Cooling Demand

The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and hyperscale cloud computing is fundamentally reshaping data center infrastructure, and liquid cooling is emerging as an indispensable solution. As traditional air-cooled systems reach their physical limits, the IT industry is under pressure to adopt more efficient thermal management strategies to meet growing demands, while complying with stringent environmental regulations. Liquid Cooling Market Development The latest ABI Research analysis reveals momentum in liquid cooling adoption. Installations are forecast to quadruple between 2023 and 2030. The market will reach $3.7 billion in value by the decade's end, with a CAGR of 22 percent. The urgency behind these numbers becomes clear when examining energy metrics: liquid cooling systems demonstrate 40 percent greater energy efficiency when compared to conventional air-cooling architectures, while simultaneously enabling ~300-500 percent increases in computational density per rac...
