DESCRIPTION:The unprecedented growth of artificial intelligence (AI) is fun
 damentally transforming data center design. Industry initiatives centered 
 around 800VDC power distribution have emerged as a promising pathway to re
 duce conversion stages\, improve energy efficiency\, lower copper usage\, 
 and support ultra-high-density computing environments. This presentation w
 ill examine the technical and economic drivers behind the transition towar
 d Direct Current (DC) data centers\, including increasing AI workloads\, g
 rowing power demands\, and evolving sustainability requirements. It will p
 rovide an overview of current industry developments\, emerging technologie
 s\, and architectural approaches.\n\nSpeaker(s): Joel Liu\, \n\nAgenda: \n
