"Too Hot, Too Cold: Optimizing the Data Furnace Concept for Improved Efficiency"
- Utilized High-Performance Computing (HPC) skills to program a Raspberry Pi-based cluster to function as a programmable thermostat
- Software maintained a specific CPU temperature on 12 nodes while performing repeated calculations
- Confirmed feasibility of cluster to function as both a server and heating appliance concurrently
- Developed software in C with the Visual Studio Code IDE, used Git and GitHub/GitLab for version control
- Delivered report to advisor - examined earlier work, confirmed concept viability, and proposed next steps
