17-Year-Old Designs Super Fast Server That Requires Less Power
Jan 29, 2014 20:45
Meet Thomas Sohmers, a very talented 17-year-old who has unveiled a new
super fast computer server that uses a fraction of the electricity that a
normal computer does.
The trick to this is very powerful machine is that it was built using ARM processors, which is the same kind low-power processors that run in smartphones and tablets. These servers will thus allow more computing power to be packed into a smaller space. Think of it as like a supercomputer running on the equivalent of smartphone battery.
Sohmers was already an electrical engineering prodigy by the age of 13, and was working at the research lab at MIT when he met his 52-year-old Kurt
Keville. The two decided to join forces to launch REX
Computing, and the computer is the first product from the startup. Here's what Sohmer had to say about his promising future:
"If I don’t end up changing the world with this I can find something
else," he said. "People think that there’s a big thought war between
these two sides [education versus entrepreneurship]. But when it comes
to the researchers, they care less about the degrees that you have, and
more about what you can actually do."
The design is set to be showcased during the Open Compute Project (OCP) Summit in San Francisco, which is a Facebook-led project that seeks to change the data center hardware
industry.
