    Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods for energy harvesting in data centers are disclosed. An example apparatus includes interface circuitry; machine-readable instructions; and at least one processor circuit to at least one of instantiate or execute the machine-readable instructions to estimate first power consumption values for electronic components of a first rack; estimate second power consumption values for electronic components of a second rack; determine a first selection score for the first rack based on the first power consumption values and a second selection score for the second rack based on the second power consumption values; select a first electronic component of the first rack or a second electronic component of the second rack to receive a workload based on the first selection score and the second selection score; and cause the selected one of the first electronic component or the second electronic component to perform the workload.

    Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a liquid cooling system having multiple heat-exchangers and multiple valves. The multiple valves are to enable/disable participation of individual ones of the heat-exchangers within the liquid cooling system. The apparatus includes an information keeping device to store information that correlates a number of the multiple heat exchangers to be enabled to realize one or more semiconductor chips' target temperature for a power consumption of the one or more semiconductor chips for a plurality of combinations of target temperature and power consumption. The controller is coupled to the liquid cooling system and the information keeping device to dynamically determine during runtime of a system having the one or more semiconductor chips an appropriate number of the multiple heat exchangers to enable to realize a particular target temperature for the one or more semiconductor chips for a particular power consumption of the one or more semiconductor chips, and, update the information in the information keeping device with a new correlation that correlates the appropriate number with the particular target temperature and particular power consumption.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of improving the thermal performance of processor-based devices. Such thermal performance improvement may include limiting the degree of tilt experienced by a semiconductor device as a thermal solution coupled to the semiconductor device is tightened to the substrate. Such thermal performance improvements may include increasing the available heat transfer area associated with a particular heat producing semiconductor device. Such thermal performance improvements may include thermally coupling one or more cool blocks thermally coupled to one or more remote heat-producing devices to a central cool block that may be cooled using a cooling medium or coupled to a central heat-producing semiconductor device.

    Abstract: Reconfigurable cooling assemblies for thermal management of integrated circuitry are provided. Such assemblies can be modular and can permit or otherwise facilitate scalable thermal performance with respect to power dissipation demands. In some embodiments, a reconfigurable modular cooling assembly can be reversibly configured to adjust reversibly the cooling capacity of the assembly for a defined power dissipation requirement. A form factor of a reconfigurable modular cooling assembly can be based at least on the defined power dissipation requirement. In some embodiments, a reconfigurable modular cooling assembly can include a pedestal member and multiple attachment members that can be reversibly coupled to or reversibly decoupled from the pedestal based at least on a power dissipation condition and/or a change thereof in a dissipative electronic component included in a semiconductor package. Scalability of thermal performance of the reconfigurable modular cooling assembly can be achieved, at least in part, by the addition of attachment members.
