    Seymour Cray's "get the heat out" motto was central to his design philosophy and has continued to be a key issue in supercomputer architectures, e.g., in large-scale experiments such as Blue Waters. [4] [5] [6] The large amount of heat generated by a system may also have other effects, such as reducing the lifetime of other system components. [7]
