The winners in four categories are=0Aannounced: HPL, Global-RandomAccess, EP-STREAM-Triad per system, and=0AGlobal-FFT.=0A=0A Class 2: Most Elegant awards an implementation of three or more=0Aof the HPC Challenge benchmarks with special emphasis put on: HPL,=0AGlobal-RandomAccess, STREAM-Triad and Global-FFT. This award would be=0Aweighted 50% on performance and 50% on code elegance/clarity/size. In=0Aaddition, we allow presentation of additional codes that are critical to scientific=0Aapplications.=0A=0A Competition in Class 1 offers a rich view of contemporary supercomputers as they compete for supremacy not just in one category but in four.=0A=0A Class 2, on the other hand, offers a glimpse into high end programming technologies and the effectiveness of their implementation. The audience will have a chance to look at new programming environments. SUMMARY:The 2011 HPC Challenge Awards PRIORITY:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
