TL;DR: In this article, the disclosure is directed to a sensor device including processing circuitry, at least one sensor coupled to the processing circuitry and memory responsive to processing circuitry including a static unique identification number.
Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a sensor device including processing circuitry, at least one sensor coupled to the processing circuitry, a serial data interface coupled to the processing circuitry and memory responsive to the processing circuitry. The memory includes a static unique identification number. The serial data interface provides access to retrieve the static unique identification number and sensed data measured with the at least one sensor from the memory.

TL;DR: In this paper, a system for cooling a data center includes a plurality of cooling racks, with each cooling rack including a housing and cooling system components supported by the housing, and the system further includes a fluid communication system coupled to the cooling component components of the plurality of racks.
Abstract: A system for cooling a data center includes a plurality of cooling racks, with each cooling rack including a housing and cooling system components supported by the housing. The system further includes a fluid communication system coupled to the cooling system components of the plurality of racks. The fluid communication system is configured to provide chilled coolant to and exhaust heated coolant from coolant system components of each cooling rack. The system also includes at least one controller coupled to each cooling rack of the plurality of cooling racks to control the operation of each cooling rack. The plurality of cooling racks and the fluid communication system are configured to be modular to allow placement of cooling racks in different locations in a row of equipment racks within the data center. Methods of cooling a data center are further disclosed.
