ETCInfer: An Energy-efficient Thermal-aware Cooling-joint Scheduler for LLM Inference in AI Datacenters
Large language model (LLM) inference in AI datacenters creates a coupled control problem between GPU serving and facility cooling. Raising ambient temperature setpoints can reduce cooling energy and carbon, but also shrinks thermal headroom, induces GPU throttling, and leads to Service-Level-Objective (SLO) violations....
