- A fish-eye view of some of the Yellowstone supercomputer's 100 racks. An iconic scene from Yellowstone National Park is featured mosaic-style on the ends of each rack.
Reason
- It would be a mammoth technical undertaking, but a University of Southern California graduate student thinks there’s a very good reason for doing this: It would help alleviate a coming deep-space network ...
- But the main reason is that I really like Andreas and the folks at Adapteva – I remember a couple of years ago when Andreas left his job, disappeared down into his ...
Supercomputing
- The NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputing Center in Cheyenne, Wyoming opens its doors today, unleashing a powerful supercomputer on an ambitious agenda of experiments that will improve predictions of earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes.
- Imagine the pace of innovation, change and breakthrough that could happen if supercomputing was made affordable, accessible and adaptable to the average developer. It’s a dream that isn’t far off becoming ...
World's
- The Oak Ridge National Laboratory has completed work on the world’s fastest “open science” supercomputer, dubbed Titan. The system is powered by thousands of microprocessors from Advanced Micro Devices and graphics chips ...
- Oak Ridge National Lab's 20+ Petaflops System -- Powered by 18,000-Plus NVIDIA Tesla K20 GPUs -- Paves Path to Efficient, Affordable Exascale Computing
- While we here on the forums try to reach the highest 3DMark scores we can, the researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have been working to build the world's fastest supercomputer ...
Architecture
- Yesterday, I mentioned that Navy researchers had a white whale on their hands who tried to imitate human speech. And along the way, I noted that the art and architecture collective Ant ...
- , and – working in his basement and living off his pension fund – single-handedly invented a new computer architecture. Andreas designed his own System-on-Chip (SoC) from the ground up – Including ...
- Watson’s nerve center in Yorktown Heights, New York. In the past couple years, we’ve watched IBM’s supercomputer Watson mature at an alarming rate. A mere concept birthed five years ago, the cybernetic ...
- Cray's Jaguar (or XK7) supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been loaded up with the first shipping NVIDIA Telsa K20 GPUs and
- Linux accounts for as much as 94.2% share as Supercomputer OS! This might come to you as a pleasant surprise, but indeed, Linux outshines anyother operatin
- NantHealth has collaborated with AT&T, HP, Intel and Verizon on a supercomputer to reduce the time required to analyze the genomic data of cancer patients.
- A PROFESSOR from Perth has employed Google Earth to collect an awe-inspiring series of satellite photos showing fractal patterns around the world.
- Titan, the U.S. Department of Energy's top open science computer, is going live on Monday with an upgrade that will likely make it the fastest supercomputer on the planet. At 20 petaflops ...
Powerful
- Sequoia, the most powerful supercomputer (for now) and a 2012 PM Breakthrough Award winner, was built to model nuclear weapons explosions. But before the machine goes fully classified, scientists used its incredible ...
- Sequoia, currently the world's most powerful supercomputer, was built for upkeep of nuclear weaponry. But researchers have put it to work on a groundbreaking simulation of something a bit more salutary: the human heart.
Parallella
- Adapteva is raising funds for Parallella: A Supercomputer For Everyone on Kickstarter! The Parallella project will make parallel computing accessible to everyone.
- This project has been blogged here almost a month ago. Now they are closer to their deadline ($105,345 needed). Recently they've provided many interesting updates on the project (I wish they've done that sooner).
