Powering the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
Overview The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) wanted to increase processing capabilities to keep up with rapid expansion of the SETI@home volunteer program, which constitutes the largest distributed supercomputer in the world and maximize real estate by putting more processing capability into the limited data center space used by SETI at the University of California, Berkeley. The challenge was to control costs by reducing energy consumption and cooling requirements. As a solution SETI is migrating to servers with Dual-Core and Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors, capitalizing on multi-core performance to double the program's processing capabilities.
