High Performance Computing: Compatible Acceleration Using Fine Grain, Parallel Processing

Tags:
processors

Overview In many cases, organizations are not realizing expected performance increases when running large, complex applications on High Performance Computing (HPC) computers. A mismatch between existing computer architectures and the applications running on them is exacerbating the inefficiencies inherent in these systems. Tailoring a computer to meet the specific resource requirements of a group of applications can yield an optimal machine without the massive expense in time and dollars of changing the architecture and rewriting the software. Multi-processor in Memory (MNM) technology, combined with CPU Tech's System-on-a-Chip (SoC) integration, can produce high throughput compatible processing at very low power and cost.

Microsoft takes on Linux in supercomputing

And Linux is popular on clusters, too.number two system "Thunder", California Digital's 4,096-processor machine built for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, runs Linux, as do the two new Blue Gene/L prototypes from IBM that are in the top...

What's in the box? IBM's Power5 architecture…

We are close to bringing out sub-CPU partitioning capability as well," he said. Linux led to about 20 additions to the Power5 design in areas such as how the chip addresses memory and locks computing resources that are in use, Arimilli said.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
