IDC’s 2012 Predictions Pave Way for Next HPC User Forum

This week Steve Conway, Earl Joseph, and Chirag DeKate presented a webinar entitled: IDC’s Top 10 HPC Market Predictions for 2012. It was a good talk, and these guys always keep things lively and moving along quickly.

A replay session is available on demand (registration required).

In related news, IDC’s 45th HPC User Forum will take place April 16-18, 2012 in Richmond, Virginia.

The keynote speaker will be Dr. Roger Hunter, NASA Kepler Mission Manager — who researches the search for “exoplanets” that’s been in the news lately. We’ll have major sessions on developments and use cases for data-intensive computing (“Big Data”), along with presentations on advances in parallel programming environments, performance modeling and industrial use of HPC systems. A new focus of our meetings includes disruptive-technologies, those new and emerging technologies that may reshape the HPC market.
