Jonas Gustafsson received his Ph.D. in Industrial electronics from Luleå University of Technology in 2011. Jonas joined RISE in 2015 as operations manager for the data centre research facility I.C.E., where he also had the role as program manager and is now working as senior researcher with focus on data centre technologies and systems. System efficiency and sustainability are two topics that has been central to Jonas’ research, independently of whether the application has been deeply embedded devices with onboard power harvesting or mega-scale data centres. Jonas has been central to the establishment of the RISE I.C.E. data center research facility buildout and has a broad network with regional and national industry, something that has demonstrated to be critical to build and operate with an ever-changing research laboratory environment. Lately, the focus on his research has been focused on upcoming edge data center solutions, and how to integrate edge data centers in cities and regions with limited power availability. With an increased amount of ICT-hardware being deployed, the importance of well-integrated solutions, where flexibility between energy sources, and efficient re-use of waste heat streams has become central aspects in his research.
