Full textAbstract:
The intensification of Russian horticulture in modern conditions is impossible without a comprehensive assessment of fruit crop varieties, including already introduced ones, to identify the most ecologically adaptive and productive genotypes for cultivation. The purpose of this study was a comprehensive assessment of the biological potential of newly-introduced plum varieties and the peculiarities of their implementation under the conditions of the North Caucasian horticultural region, intending to select the best ones to expand the regional assortment. The research focus was the plum varieties of Italian breeds: Big Stanley (Prunus domestica L.), Blue Moon (Prunus domestica L.), August Delight (Prunus domestica L.), Dark Sunlight (Prunus domestica L.), Crimson Glo (Prunus cerasifera L.) of differentecological and geographical origin. The August Delight, Blue Moon, Crimson Glo and Dark Sunlight varieties are earlymaturing and start bearing fruits in 3 years and Big Stanley in 4 years. These varieties have a restrained spread, respond positively to alternative methods of crown formation and are technologically advanced. According to the ripening time of the fruits, the varieties can be divided into distinct groups: August Delight and Blue Moon are middle-late, while Big Stanley, Crimson Glo and Dark Sunlight are late. Under the research conditions, the August Delight, Blue Moon and Big Stanley varieties developed large fruits of 44.6-52.4 g, while very large fruits, between 75.5 and 78.9 g, were found in the Crimson Glo and Dark Sunlight varieties, respectively. Under extreme weather conditions, Crimson Glo (19.5 t/ha) and Dark Sunlight (22.3 t/ha) varieties were characterised by higher yields, while for the Big Stanley, Blue Moon, August Delight varieties, the yield was at the level of the control group (15.0-16.2 t/ha). Newly-introduced varieties have several agronomic characters, allowing them to be recommended for expanding the regional assortment and plum supply of late varieties. This strategy can provide an increase in the arrival duration of fresh fruits by 26-30 days.

Full textAbstract:
This paper deals with an evaluation of the economics in two commercial plum orchards which were established between 1993–1997 using dense tree-spacing and modern principles of orchard management. This evaluation was conducted in 1994–2004 with the following cultivars: Bluefre, Common Prune, Čačanska lepotica, Čačanska najbolja, Gabrovska, Hamanova, Opal, President, Ruth Gerstetter,Stanley, and Valjevka. Orchard establishment costs, pruning costs, annual orchard operating and pest management costs and returns up to 11 years of growth are given. A denser planting had a positive influence on total yields per hectare with higher returns. Costs per ton of fruit mostly varied between 4 and 7 thousand CZK, whereas farmer prices fluctuated between 7.6 to 13.6 thousand CZK per ton. The highest returns after seven years of growth from one hectare were exhibited by the cultivar President on rootstock St. Julien A in the spacing 4 × 2.5 m followed by the cultivar Stanley on rootstock Myrobalan and the same spacing.

Full textAbstract:
Unlike those who read Fish as declaring that free speech is an illusion or incoherent, I argue that Fish provides a superior explanation of what makes free speech possible, and a more insightful description of what judges are doing when they decide cases under laws which protect it. In this paper I first identify the central philosophical commitment from which Fish derives most of his controversial positions. Next, I demonstrate how his position on free speech in particular flows from this central philosophical commitment. Finally, in the main section of the paper, I consider three serious objections to Fish’s analysis of free speech, and consider how Fish might respond to them. I seek to defend Fish's denial that the relationship between freedom and constraint is one of simple opposition; rather he claims that constraint is the precondition for freedom. He therefore sees all speech as made under conditions of constraint. He also sees a commitment to censoring some speech as inherently contained within any commitment to freedom of speech, and so toleration of all viewpoints is impossible. He denies that any free speech principle can be neutral regarding viewpoints, and he denies that any "free market of ideas" is without bias and exclusions. He therefore rejects the accounts given by American courts deciding cases under the First Amendment which stress a fidelity to neutral principle. Since there are no such principles in existence, such courts are really doing one of two things. Either they are pragmatically advancing a partisan agenda, and constraining some speech in a way which is obfuscated, or their false belief in the existence of neutral principles paralyses them in the face of danger and prevents them from performing this pragmatic exercise.

Full textAbstract:
Background:The OMERACT Ultrasound (US) in calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD) sub-task force has been working on the use of US in CPPD since 2014 first creating definitions for CPPD identification and then assessing the reliability[1].Objectives:Objective of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy (truth) of US in CPPD.Methods:Consecutive patients waiting to undergo knee replacement surgery due to osteoarthritis were enrolled in 12 centres from 6 countries. Each patient underwent US examination of the knee, focusing on the menisci and the hyaline cartilage, the day prior to surgery, scoring each site for presence/absence of CPP as defined previously[1]. After surgery, the menisci and the condyles were retrieved and examined microscopically. Six samples were collected, both from the surface and from the internal part of menisci and cartilage trying to cover a large part of it. All slides were observed under transmitted light microscopy and by compensated polarised microscopy. A dichotomous score was given for the presence/absence of CPP. US and microscopic analysis were performed by different operators, blind to each other’s findings. Sensitivity and specificity of US were calculated using microscopic findings as the gold standard.Results:101 patients have been enrolled in the study. 33 patients have been excluded due to loss of anatomical pieces at surgery. The mean age of the remaining 68 pts was 71yo (±8), 44 women, 34 were affected by CPPD according to microscopy. Overall and per site diagnostic US accuracy results are presented in table 1Diagnostic accuracySensitivitySpecificityPositive Predictive valueNegative Predictive valueGlobal0.750.910.590.690.87Medial meniscus0.820.870.770.770.87Lateral meniscus0.750.830.680.680.83Medial cartilage0.860.790.920.880.85Lateral cartilage0.820.710.880.770.84Medial side (combined cartilage and meniscus)0.820.880.760.790.87Lateral side (combined cartilage and meniscus)0.780.880.690.730.86Conclusion:Our results demonstrate that US is an accurate exam for identification of CPPD.

Full textAbstract:
Stanley Hauerwas and others argue that Luther’s understanding of justification denies the theological and ethical significance of the body. Indeed, the inner, spiritual person is the one who experiences God’s grace in the gospel, while the outer, physical (read: bodily) person continues to live under law and therefore coercion and condemnation. While not denying that Luther can be so read, I argue that there is another side of Luther, one that recognizes the body’s importance for Christian life. I make this argument through a close reading of Luther’s reflections on Adam and Eve’s Fall in his Lectures on Genesis (1545) and the sacramental theology in ‘Against the Heavenly Prophets’. For this Luther, disconnection from our bodies is not a sign of justification but rather the sin from which justification saves us. Accordingly, justification results in a return to embodied creatureliness as the way we receive and live our justification.

Quarterly Publication of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA) 21, no. 4 (December 1, 2011): 573–92. http://dx.doi.org/10.1075/prag.21.4.04gun.
Full textAbstract:
This paper investigates ways in which participants in everyday German narratives construct emotions as social phenomena; i.e. in particular, how they organize and communicate emotional involvement. I will argue that contextualizing emotions and affects permeates various levels of linguistic and interactional structures – even grammar: Participants in everyday German storytelling use specific syntactic patterns as resources for indexing affective stances and making past events interpretable and emotionally accessible to their co-participants. The analysis concentrates on particular syntactic resources (such as averbal constructions, infinite constructions, minimal syntactic phrases etc.) used to contextualize affect and emotion. Instead of treating these ‘dense constructions’ (e.g. averbal constructions “I:CH (.) mit meinen sachen rAuf, […] ICH (-) wieder rUnter,”; ‘me (.) with my stuff upstairs, […] me (-) down again,’) as elliptic structures and conceptualizing them as incomplete or reduced sentence patterns, this study explores the specific forms and functions of ‘dense constructions’ in interactive usage. I will argue that ‘dense constructions’ – even though they do not follow the rules of the grammar of Standard German – represent conventionalized patterns participants use to fulfil various communicative tasks in specific communicative genres. In producing such ‘fragmentary gestalts’, conversationalists index sudden, reflex-like actions, and thus, stage dramatic, emotionally loaded events for their co-participants to “re-experience” (Goffman 1974/1986: 506).

Full textAbstract:
Dennett’s account of consciousness starts from third-person considerations. I argue this is wise, since beginning with first-person access precludes accommodating the third-person access we have to others’ mental states. But Dennett’s first-person operationalism, which seeks to save the first person in third-person, operationalist terms, denies the occurrence of folk-psychological states that one doesn’t believe oneself to be in, and so the occurrence of folk-psychological states that aren’t conscious. This conflicts with Dennett’s intentional-stance approach to the mental, on which we discern others’ mental states independently of those states’ being conscious. We can avoid this conflict with a higher-order theory of consciousness, which saves the spirit of Dennett’s approach, but enables us to distinguish conscious folk-psychological states from nonconscious ones. The intentional stance by itself can’t do this, since it can’t discern a higher-order awareness of a psychological state. But we can supplement the intentional stance with the higher-order theoretical apparatus.

This chapter offers another passage of summary, but here not in exalted style. Rather, Plutarch uses the medium of a supposed inscription to show the Roman people’s appreciation of Cato the Elder’s censorship, and his moral rescue of the Roman res publica. The historicity of the inscription is extremely doubtful; but the passage shows a fruitful interaction between the austere moral ethos of the Middle Republic (as restored by Cato) and the rich and stylish eloquence of Greek Imperial prose. The passage is not mere hagiography: Cato’s stance on statues has changed. The passage moves away from dense rhythm into a witty and irresistible mot.

Full textAbstract:
Twelve visions of living in a climate-changed world. We are living in the Anthropocene—an era of dramatic and violent climate change featuring warming oceans, melting icecaps, extreme weather events, habitat loss, species extinction, and more. What will life be like in a climate-changed world? In Tomorrow's Parties, science fiction authors speculate how we might be able to live and even thrive through the advancing Anthropocene. In ten original stories by writers from around the world, an interview with celebrated writer Kim Stanley Robinson, and a series of intricate and elegant artworks by Sean Bodley, Tomorrow's Parties takes rational optimism as a moral imperative, or at least a pragmatic alternative to despair. In these stories—by writers from the United Kingdom, the United States, Nigeria, China, Bangladesh, and Australia—a young man steals from delivery drones; a political community lives on an island made of ocean-borne plastic waste; and a climate change denier tries to unmask “crisis actors.” Climate-changed life also has its pleasures and epiphanies, as when a father in Africa works to make his son's dreams of “Viking adventure” a reality, and an IT professional dispatched to a distant village encounters a marvelous predigital fungal network. Contributors include Pascall Prize for Criticism winner James Bradley, Hugo Award winners Greg Egan and Sarah Gailey, Philip K Dick Award winner Meg Elison, and New York Times bestselling author Daryl Gregory.

Came, Daniel, ed. Nietzsche on Morality and the Affirmation of Life. Oxford University Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198728894.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
At the core of Nietzsche’s famous critique of ‘morality’ lies the sweeping claim that morality is the primary source of a stance of ‘life-denial’, and hence an obstacle to the possibility of an affirmative stance towards life. Moral values, Nietzsche argues, are inimical to the affirmation of life, since they typically denigrate certain ineliminable features of the world and human existence (suffering, loss, impermanence, the body, instinctual desire). Other values, allegedly, are life-affirming because they cultivate or augment a life-affirming tendency. Nietzsche’s pervasive concern with undermining morality and fostering an affirmative attitude towards life are thus closely intertwined: he attacks morality because it underwrites a condemnation of life and seeks to supplant morality with an alternative, life-enhancing ethics of affirmation. This volume brings together a number of new essays by leading Nietzsche scholars to examine these centrally important and overlapping themes in Nietzsche’s philosophical enterprise.

Full textAbstract:
Schopenhauer holds that emotions impair cognition, while Nietzsche apparently replies that they are ineliminable from cognition, and that they enhance it. For Schopenhauer, human cognition is normally in the service of affective states that he classes as ‘movements of the will’. But he sees cognition as spoiled, warped, or tainted by its inability to shake off the emotions, desires, or drives that belong to human nature. The exception is a rare kind of cognition in which an individual becomes the ‘pure subject of cognition’. Nietzsche accepts something analogous to Schopenhauer’s descriptive position on the relation between cognition and the affects. But he firmly rejects Schopenhauer’s evaluative stance, and denies the possibility of a pure, objective, affect-free cognition. Nietzsche argues that the influence of the affects on human cognition is not only necessary, but beneficial. This, the chapter argues, is at the heart of Nietzsche’s famous ‘perspectivism’.

Full textAbstract:
Having dismissed two other anti-separationist strategies, this chapter presents the best way of attacking separationism and articulating nonseparationism. It is denied that thick concepts can be split into thin evaluation and nonevaluative descriptive content by showing that thick evaluation is itself a basic and fundamental response to the world. Evaluation cannot be reduced to stances that are merely pro or con, as separationists do, because doing so results in a strange view of the world. This idea is elaborated in many ways: the proposal’s radical nature is revealed since the notion of the evaluative is shown to stretch further than one might think; it is suggested that there is no obvious clear dividing line between evaluative and nonevaluative concepts; there is a final discussion of evaluative flexibility; and two worries from Chapter Two are met. Work by Jonathan Dancy, Philippa Foot, Gilbert Ryle, and Bernard Williams is discussed.

Full textAbstract:
The belief that people are free human beings is central to much explanation of human behavior as well as to a broad set of social practices such as law, ethics, and politics. Neuroscience has been heralded as a game-changer that will radically alter how people perceive human freedom and potentially lead to the denial of its very existence. This chapter first examines some of the claims made by neuroscience research that challenge beliefs in free moral agency. It posits that a commonly held but unfounded objectivist and essential stance toward free moral agency and an equally common dichotomist fact–value/is–ought tension are at the center of these problematic interpretations. A resolution can be found in pragmatist theory and recent research in social psychology, both of which suggest that knowledge can also empower moral agency.

Full textAbstract:
What should be the role of our institutions of higher education? To promote good moral character? To bring an end to racism, sexism, economic oppression, and other social ills? To foster diversity and democracy and produce responsible citizens? In Save the World On Your Own Time, Stanley Fish argues that, however laudable these goals might be, there is but one proper role for the academe in society: to advance bodies of knowledge and to equip students for doing the same. When teachers offer themselves as moralists, political activists, or agents of social change rather than as credentialed experts in a particular subject and the methods used to analyze it, they abdicate their true purpose. And yet professors now routinely bring their political views into the classroom and seek to influence the political views of their students. Those who do this will often invoke academic freedom, but Fish suggests that academic freedom, correctly understood, is the freedom to do the academic job, not the freedom to do any job that the professor so chooses. Fish insists that a professor's only obligation is "to present the material in the syllabus and introduce students to state-of-the-art methods of analysis. Not to practice politics, but to study it; not to proselytize for or against religious doctrines, but to describe them; not to affirm or condemn Intelligent Design, but to explain what it is and analyze its appeal." Given that hot-button issues such as Holocaust denial, free speech, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are regularly debated in classrooms across the nation, Save the World On Your Own Time is certain to spark fresh debate--and to incense both liberals and conservatives alike--about the true purpose of higher education in America.

Full textAbstract:
This book is aimed at giving readers an introduction to the practical side of game data science and thus can be used a textbook for game analytics or game user research class or as a reference to self learners and enthusiasts. Game data science is a term that we use to denote a process composed of methods and techniques by which an analyst or a data scientist can make sense of data to allow decision makers in a game company to make informed decisions. This process involves: statistical analysis, visualization, abstraction of low-level data, machine learning and sequence data modeling. The book introduces different methods borrowing from different fields including human computer interaction, machine learning, and data science, focusing on methods and techniques used by both industry and researchers within the field of games. The book examples and case studies specifically focus on gameplay log data. The book takes a practical stance on the subject by discussing theoretical foundation, practical approaches, and delves deeply into the different techniques proposed and used through labs, examples, and comprehensive surveys of various case studies from both industry and academia. Topics range from simple approaches to more advanced ones. No prior knowledge is required. The book is developed to be self contained and can be used as a good way to introduce the reader to data science and how it is applied to the filed of games.

Full textAbstract:
The ICC arbitration, being one of the most common ones in international commercial arbitration, is also one of the most benevolent to the application of supranational substantive rules, including the lex mercatoria. While it has not always been the case, since 1998, the arbitrators may less focus on complex reasoning as to why the lex mercatoria might be applicable, and rather may fully concen-trate on the rightful adjudication of the dispute. This article presents a summary of changes in ICC arbit-ration stance on the applicability of lex mercatoria, as voiced by the permission to inter partes elect, or ex post determine, substantive “rules of law” rather than just a “law”. Connotations of ICC jurispru-dence towards applicable lex mercatoria and its relationship to state law is also discussed and evalu-ated.

AbstractThis chapter presents and analyses various official statements, 2021 election programmes and party manifestos, media reports as well as public hearings with regard to the changing view of China in the German public discourse. While the importance of economic interests is still the overarching topic in German-Chinese relations (China has been Germany`s most important trading partner since 2015), there has been a shift towards a more critical stance with regard to human rights issues in recent years. Germany was also the driving force behind the Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (CAI) with China, which the EU signed in December 2020 under Germany’s presidency of the EU Council but so far never ratified.After the formation of a new SPD led government under chancellor Olaf Scholz, the two smaller coalition partners, the Alliance 90/The Greens, and the FDP, are said to have a much more critical view of China’s human rights issues. In particular, the new German foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock has publicly vowed to change Germany’s China policy. While Germany has remained within the hedging zone a shift from “economic pragmatism” to “soft balancing” can be observed, most noticeably in political terms: in particular, the new foreign minister Annalena Baerbock stresses the necessity for a closer cooperation both with the United States, but also a common policy of the EU towards China. Thus Germany, and the EU in general, seems to have shifted from “economic pragmatism” to “dominance denial” since the new government came into power, and the war in Ukraine has led to an even closer alliance of Germany, with the EU and the United States.

Full textAbstract:
One thread running through this book so far has been a concern that medicine is not all it is cracked up to be. This chapter considers the most dramatic version of this stance, namely Medical Nihilism. Nihilism is the view that its object is worthless, accompanied by an emotional reaction of despair. Medical Nihilism is this attitude toward medicine. It was a common stance in the 19th century because of the persistent elusiveness of cures. The chapter considers Wootton’s nihilism about historical Western medicine, but focuses on Stegenga’s recent arguments for low confidence in contemporary medicine. Stegenga’s arguments are ultimately rejected, but the larger lesson is Medical Nihilism relies heavily on the Curative Thesis. Even if Therapeutic Nihilism were warranted (which the chapter denies), this would not warrant Nihilism about the whole of medicine, if medicine is properly characterized by the Inquiry Thesis, as the earlier parts of the book contend.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter investigates the various ways in which Chabrol’s cinema engages with genre(s). Although his output is generically diverse, Chabrol remains mostly associated with the crime thriller. The focus is on how Chabrol works broadly within the confines of a generic frame while managing to reflect it in very different ways. The first case study, on Le Boucher, shows how a generically stable thriller transcends the genre at the end in order to become a philosophical investigation into civilisation and the human. In so doing, it identifies Stanley Kubrick’s 2001 A Space Odyssey as a key, undiscovered intertext for Le Boucher. The other films examined in this chapter, Masques, La Fille coupé en deux and Bellamy show how Chabrol resorts to reflexive modes (parody, theatricality) in order to raise questions about spectatorship. Finally, by examining the fortunes of the adjective ‘chabrolien’ in film reviews and identifying a number of Chabrolean markers through two case studies (films by Anne Fontaine and Denis Dercourt), this chapter explores Chabrol’s lasting legacy on the contemporary French thriller.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Wollstonecraft’s call for a revolution in female manners entails a revolution of loves, earthly and divine. That such a revolution is inherently political has been denied or ignored by many, a source of anxiety for others. From premoderns like Plato, Aristotle, and Augustine to late moderns like Hannah Arendt, James Baldwin, Stanley Hauerwas, Martha Nussbaum, Alexander Nehamas, and Danielle Allen the political perils of love, friendship, and religion have been a matter of ongoing dispute. Wollstonecraft is keenly aware of the dangers of disordered loves. Oppressive relations of every kind require a revolution, a reordering of loves, desires, and relations as well as of laws, social norms, and institutions. The political virtues of friendship, generosity, and charity or love supplement the virtues of justice by perfecting all manner of loves—love of self, family, spouse, friends, strangers, enemies, country, nature, and God. Such virtues simply are common goods.

Full textAbstract:
At the core of Nietzsche’s critique of ‘morality’ lies the sweeping diagnostic claim that morality is the primary source of a stance of ‘life-denial’, and hence an obstacle to the very possibility of an affirmative stance towards life. Moral values, Nietzsche insists, are inimical to the affirmation of life, since they typically denigrate certain pervasive and ineliminable features of the world and human existence (suffering, loss, impermanence, the body, instinctual desire, and so on). Other values, allegedly, are life-affirming because they cultivate or augment a life-affirming tendency. Nietzsche’s almost ubiquitous concerns with undermining morality and fostering an affirmative attitude towards life are thus closely intertwined: he denigrates or criticizes morality because it underwrites a condemnation of life, and he seeks to supplant morality with an alternative, life-enhancing ethics of affirmation. This volume brings together a number of new essays to examine these centrally important and overlapping themes in Nietzsche’s philosophical enterprise....

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Schopenhauer holds that affects and emotions impair cognition, while Nietzsche apparently replies that they are ineliminable from cognition, and that they enhance it. For Schopenhauer, human cognition is normally in the service of affective states that he classes as ‘movements of the will’. But he sees cognition as spoiled, warped, or tainted by its inability to shake off the emotions, desires, or drives that belong to human nature. The exception is a rare kind of cognition in which an individual becomes the ‘pure subject of cognition’. Nietzsche accepts something analogous to Schopenhauer’s descriptive position on the relation between cognition and the affects, but firmly rejects Schopenhauer’s evaluative stance, and denies the possibility of a pure, objective, affect-free cognition. Nietzsche argues that the influence of the affects on human cognition is not only necessary, but beneficial. This, the chapter argues, is at the heart of Nietzsche’s famous ‘perspectivism’.

Full textAbstract:
The following chapter provides the reader with a brief history of the Italian Risorgimento, the sociopolitical movement that led to the unification of the country in 1870. The importance of Risorgimento ideas and values in the life of Arturo Reghini, who was born only eight years after the birth of the Italian nation, is highlighted and explored, especially through the works of Mario Banti and Denis Mack Smith. An analysis of the main threads of the occult tradition that flourished in nineteenth-century Italy and their impact on Reghini is also attempted, with special relevance given to Freemasonry, Spiritualism, and the occult ideas of Italo/Roman primacy, which blossomed in Naples toward the end of the century and strongly informed Reghini’s worldview. A short excursus on the history of the Vatican State and the Roman question is also attempted, since this event influenced Reghini’s strong anti-clerical stance.

Abstract This chapter examines the international feud between Frances Willard and journalist Ida B. Wells from 1893 to 1895. Wells called attention to Willard’s silence on African American lynching in the South, noting Willard’s reluctance to criticize southern whites who denied the realities of these crimes. The chapter discusses Wells’ support from British reformers such as Catherine Impey, as well as from African American leaders like Frederick Douglass. It also brings attention to the politics of the World’s Woman’s Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) where many British women, notably Florence Balgarnie, challenged Willard to take a stronger stance against lynching. Although Willard weathered the storm, the Wells controversy highlights Willard’s lack of sustained engagement with issues of racism.

Full textAbstract:
The data center of tomorrow is characterized as one containing a dense aggregation of commodity computing, networking and storage hardware mounted in industry standard racks. In fact, the data center is a computer. The walls of the data center are akin to the walls of the chassis in today’s computer system. The new slim rack mounted systems and blade servers enable reduction in the footprint of today’s data center by 66%. While maximizing computing per unit area, this compaction leads to extremely high power density and high cost associated with removal of the dissipated heat. Today’s approach of cooling the entire data center to a constant temperature sampled at a single location, irrespective of the distributed utilization, is too energy inefficient. We propose a smart cooling system that provides localized cooling when and where needed and works in conjunction with a compute workload allocator to distribute compute workloads in the most energy efficient state. This paper shows a vision and construction of this intelligent data center that uses a combination of modeling, metrology and control to provision the air conditioning resources and workload distribution. A variable cooling system comprising variable capacity computer room air conditioning units, variable air moving devices, adjustable vents, etc. are used to dynamically allocate air conditioning resources where and when needed. A distributed metrology layer is used to sense environment variables like temperature and pressure, and power. The data center energy manager redistributes the compute workloads based on the most energy efficient availability of cooling resources and vice versa. The distributed control layer is no longer associated with any single localized temperature measurement but based on parameters calculated from an aggregation of sensors. The compute resources not in use are put on “standby” thereby providing added savings.
