Abstract: A self-supporting panel is used to form building components, including roofs that have no independent supports for the panels between the ends of the panels. The panel system includes a base support or structural component having a top face sheet supported by longitudinally load carrying webs and a layer of insulation on the exterior of the face sheet. The insulation spans the entire face sheet to overlie connectors between the edges of adjacent panels when the panels are assembled to form a wall or roof, to eliminate thermal shorts.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring power usage in a data storage environment, the system comprising a data storage system, a power monitor coupled to the data storage system and configured to monitor power consumption of the data storage system, a database in communication with the power monitor in order to communicate the monitored power consumption to the database, and computer-executable program code operating in memory coupled with a processor in communication with the database, wherein the computer-executable program code is configured to enable a processor to execute logic to receive power consumption information about the monitored power consumption, and display the monitored power consumption information to a user.
