NUS' School of Computing Derives the Advantage of Supercomputing Deploying Linux on Dell
White Paper To buy and run number-crunching traditional supercomputers calls for huge sums of money, and uncommon expertise in the knowledge of maintaining those proprietary platforms. High-performance computing has always required significant resources and... [03 Jul 2008]
Wireless Java-Enabled MIDP Devices as Peers in a Grid Infrastructure
White Paper Combining Mobile Internet and Grid technologies could mean the ability to command the power of supercomputers with a mobile device. The computing and data transfer capacities of mobile devices are expanding and Grid-related technologies are already... [03 Jul 2008]
SUNY Buffalo's Bioinformatics Research Accelerates With the World's Largest Academic HPC Linux Cluster
White Paper SUNY required a fast, reliable, and scalable alternative to the costly supercomputers that are typically deployed in life science environments. The Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics at the University of Buffalo is a newly established campus of... [03 Jul 2008]
U.S. Navy Relies on SGI and Platform LSF to Execute Complex Weather Prediction Models
White Paper FNMOC relies on high performance SGI Origin 3000 Series supercomputers running SGI's Trusted IRIX secure operating system, along with efficient and reliable job scheduling and workload management provided by Platform LSF software. [03 Jul 2008]
Energy For A New Tomorrow
White Paper Instead of leasing supercomputers, Amerada Hess uses an array of desktop computers running Red Hat Linux. Leasing supercomputers would have cost a million dollars a year - Amerada Hess gets comparable results with Red Hat Linux for around $100,000... [03 Jul 2008]
AlphaServer SC: Terascale Single-System-Image Supercomputing
White Paper This paper explores the AlphaServer SC family of supercomputers. It provides a detailed explanation of the hardware, software, and development environment for these systems. It is intended to serve as an introduction to the AlphaServer SC family... [03 Jul 2008]
The Power of 9.2 Teraflops
White Paper Now, Linux is enabling true supercomputers at lower cost than traditional platforms, and HP is leading the charge. Many companies have saved money and increased efficiency with HP Linux solutions. In April 2002, HP and the U.S. [03 Jul 2008]
AlphaServer SC: Scalable Supercomputing
White Paper This paper explores the new AlphaServer SC family of supercomputers. It covers the history of supercomputing at Compaq, the architecture and building blocks of the AlphaServer SC family, and presents the unique scalability and upgradability of... [03 Jul 2008]
Globus: a Metacomputing Infrastructure Toolkit
White Paper These applications use high-speed networks to integrate supercomputers, large databases, archival storage devices, advanced visualization devices, and/or scientific instruments to form networked virtual supercomputers or metacomputers. [03 Jul 2008]
Data Management and Transfer in High-Performance Computational Grid Environments
White Paper Such applications arise, for example, in experimental physics, where the data in question is generated by accelerators, and in simulation science, where the data is generated by supercomputers. An emerging class of data-intensive applications... [03 Jul 2008]
ICE (Integrated Cluster Environment) Cluster Management Solution
White Paper They provide greater flexibility, reliability, scalability, and price/performance over traditional supercomputers. Linux clusters are the high performance compute engine of choice for many industries seeking raw number crunching power. [03 Jul 2008]
Technical Summary of RAID
White Paper Small inexpensive disk drives used with personal computers and microcomputers are lower in performance and capacity when compared to the large expensive disk drives used on mainframes and supercomputers. [03 Jul 2008]
Grid Computing Takes Off in the Enterprise
White Paper The concept of grid computing is very similar to the methods used to create many massively parallel supercomputers. The current fastest supercomputers are, after all, federations of thousands of independent processors. [10 Apr 2008]
