Thermal-aware Resource Management for Modern Computing Platforms in the Next Generation of Aircraft

Project description

Keeping cool with hot avionics systems

Things are heating up for electronics, literally. As electronic devices get smaller and more powerful, designers are faced with the growing challenge of optimising processing speed. Faster processors necessitate increased power consumption, which generates heat. The EU-funded project THERMAC is tackling thermal management challenges for avionics systems in small aircraft. Advanced thermal modelling tools should allow the design of smaller, lighter and higher-performance computing platforms that integrate a larger number of functionalities.
