MIT's Christina Delimitrou uses machine learning to make data centers more efficient

MIT associate professor Christina Delimitrou is applying machine learning to make large-scale data centers more efficient, secure, and reliable, rethinking how servers and networking equipment operate.

Her group redesigns outdated cloud systems, manages shared hardware resources, and creates streamlined server architectures so operators can extract more computing power from existing hardware.

She also uses AI to help programmers find and fix problems in cloud-based applications, reducing downtime that hampers performance and drains resources.
