Video: Convey's Hybrid-Core Computers

Nov 18
LIVE@SCO9: Bruce Toal, CEO, President and Co-Founder of Convey Computer demonstrates how their hybrid-core computing technology delivers significantly higher performance at much lower power. And how, with their proprietary adaptive architecture, servers can dynamically and transparently reload different "personalities” that are optimized for different applications. Convey (www.conveycomputer.com) was presented with an HPCwire Editors’ Choice Award as a top vendor “positioned to lead FPGAs out of the HPC wilderness”. Take a look at their virtual booth video live from SC09.

NASA Looks to Move Science Apps Into the Cloud

It seems only natural that the US space agency would be casting its eyes toward the clouds. Sure enough, NASA is now looking to cloud computing to optimize the operation of the agency's IT infrastructure for some of its science codes. Like many commercial businesses and government organizations, NASA is being asked to do more computing with fewer datacenter resources.

Appro Assists LLNL with Cluster Designed for Extreme Scale Visualization

Jan 11 | | LLNL is home to some of the fastest computers in the world. In 2012, LLNL expects to have the Sequoia supercomputing cluster operational with a projected performance of over 20 PFLOP/s. These systems will focus on strengthening the foundations of predictive simulation through running large suites of complex simulations and then comparing model predictions with experimental data. To visualize this project’s large amount of data, LLNL requested an Appro Supercomputing Cluster specifically designed to support interactive data analysis.
