Accelerating HPC Programmer Productivity with OpenACC and CUDA Unified Memory

Doug Miles from NVIDIA gave this talk at SC17. “CUDA Unified Memory for NVIDIA Tesla GPUs offers programmers a unified view of memory on GPU-accelerated compute nodes. The CPUs can access GPU high-bandwidth memory directly, the GPUs can access CPU main memory directly, and memory pages migrate automatically between the two when the CUDA Unified Memory manager determines it is performance-profitable. PGI OpenACC compilers now leverage this capability on allocatable data to dramatically simplify parallelization and incremental optimization of HPC applications for GPUs.”

Globus for Google Drive Provides Unified Interface for Collaborative Research

Today Globus.org announced general availability of Globus for Google Drive, a new capability that lets users seamlessly connect Google Drive with their existing storage ecosystem, enabling a single interface for data transfer, sharing and publication across all storage systems. “Our researchers wanted to use Google Drive for data storage, but found that they had to babysit the data transfers,” said Krishna Muriki, Computer Systems Engineer, HPC Services, at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. “They were already familiar with using Globus so we thought it would make a good interface for Google Drive; that’s why we partnered with Globus to develop this connector. Now our researchers have a familiar, web-based interface across all their storage resources, including Google Drive, so it is painless to move data where they need it and share results with collaborators. Globus manages all the data movement and authorization, improving security and reliability as well.”

Unified Computing System with Cisco

When used together, Bright Computing and Cisco Systems provide a complete, integrated HPC Ethernet solution that decreases the amount of time IT managers, administrators, and users spend managing a complex collection of vendors, networks, and hardware. With improved focus on results, productivity increases, and costs decrease.

Allinea Demos Unified DDT Debugger and MAP Profiler at ISC'13

In this video from ISC’13, Patrick Wohlschlegel from Allinea demonstrates the newly unified Allinea DDT debugger and Allinea MAP profiling tools. We’ve noticed fluidity in the workflow. A developer uses Allinea DDT to get the code right, then Allinea MAP to understand its performance, and then flicks back into Allinea DDT to uncover a performance […]

Allinea Unified Debugging/Profiling Tools Give Users an Edge

Here at ISC’13 in Leipzig, Germany. It is easy to see that Unification is a good thing. This week Allinea announced a unification of its own with smart 4.1 Release that lets developers and scientists debug and profile interchangeably. We’ve noticed fluidity in the workflow. A developer uses Allinea DDT to get the code right, […]
