Video: 10 Petaflop Mira Supercomputer Installation
March 28, 2013 by
In this time-lapse video, the Mira supercomputer is assembled at Argonne National Laboratory. With an amazing 1048 nodes per rack, the 10 Petaflop IBM Blue Gene/Q system was reportedly brought up and running production codes in record time.
More Noble Truths About Exascale
March 27, 2013 by
Over at The Exascale Report, Mike Bernhardt and Doug Black continue their series of features on the Noble Truths of Exascale. And while they aren’t very encouraging, we’ll just cut to the chase here and list them: The U.S. is unsure about Exascale Private industry alone can’t get us there. The discussion of the computation […]
Video: Challenging Large-Data Problems at NASA
March 27, 2013 by
In this video from the 2013 National HPCC Conference, Dr. Tsengdar Lee from NASA presents: Challenging Large-Data Problems at NASA. NASA’s observations from Earth-orbiting satellites and outputs from computational climate models have contributed to one of the most data-intensive scientific disciplines today. The Earth system science tries to analyze the data, turns the data into […]
HPC People on the Move: More Exodus at Tabor Communications
March 27, 2013 by
Hello. It’s me again–Dr. Lewey Anton. I’ve been commissioned by insideHPC to track HPC People on the Move. The personnel landscape in HPC continues to ebb and flow out there. And in a small community like this, the company names on the badges may change, but faces remain the same. Here are the most recent […]
Minding the Missing Middle at Zipp Speed Weaponry
March 27, 2013 by
In this video from the 2013 National HPCC Conference, Dr. Josh Poertner, Technical Director at Zipp Speed Weaponry presents: Minding the Missing Middle. I’ll be talking about how we leveraged a team of folks in your industry to make it happen, and how we had to change everybody’s behavior and expectations to get it done, […]
Gordon Supercomputer Powers Battle against Autism
March 27, 2013 by
Researchers are using the unique capabilities of the flash-powered Gordon supercomputer at SDSC to find transcription factors that could be used to treat mental disorders such as autism. We live in the unique time when huge amounts of data related to genes, DNA, RNA, proteins, and other biological objects have been extracted and stored,” said […]
Video: EUDAT and Big Data in Science
March 27, 2013 by
In this video from the 2013 National HPCC Conference, Wolfgang Gentzsch presents: EUDAT and Big Data in Science. Big data science emerges as a new paradigm for scientific discovery that reflects the increasing value of observational, experimental and computer-generated data in virtually all domains, from physics to the humanities and social sciences. Addressing this new […]
Altair and HP White Paper: An Integrated Approach to Workload and Cluster Management
March 26, 2013 by
Altair’s PBS Professional® is now fully integrated with HP’s Insight Cluster Management Utility (CMU), automating 80% or more of administrator’s cluster and workload management tasks. Setting up a cluster can be challenging for a system administrator. The burden of installing a complete software stack across hundreds or thousands of compute nodes, combined with the pressure […]
