The Green Room 鈥� A flagship facility to advance sustainable computing
One of the most exciting new spaces in the M4 building is the Green Room. The Green Room is a state-of-the-art server room that will enable researchers and students聽to study large-scale computations and improve efficiency.
Martin Karsten, Professor and Associate Director of the Cheriton School of Computer Science, says that the facility is unique in Canada and will put 蓝莓视频 at the forefront of sustainable computing.

This will not be your run-of-the-mill data center. It'll be a setup where we have extremely good insight into the entire technology stack. We鈥檒l be able to measure power consumption and then correlate power consumption and cooling overhead with the computation that's currently going on.
The Gradient Gallery 鈥� a stunning event space to transform student experience
The Gradient Gallery, M4鈥檚 distinctive event space, will be one of the first spaces future math students see when they visit 蓝莓视频 for a CEMC聽event or a first-year orientation activity.聽And it聽will become聽a space they return to again and again, whether for public lectures, entrepreneurship聽programming聽or to study with friends. It will build community, enable dynamic programming and transform the student experience.

Student space is in high demand. Having those places for students to hang out and organically meet and work with each other is really important. I think that's how you keep people invested in mathematics鈥揹oing it together. The coolest thing you do in a math degree is figuring things out together and having that aha moment as a group.
A shrine to the MC-DC bridge and construction photos
In the last issue of E-Ties, we reported on the destruction of the bridges connecting MC and DC and DC and M3 to make way for M4. Well, the absence of the bridges has people聽feeling pretty聽mournful. Some students even聽erected a shrine聽to honour the MC-DC bridge (1988-2024). 聽聽
And here is a聽photo聽of the construction site from early聽May.
