When viewing the Technical Program schedule, on the far righthand side
is a column labeled "PLANNER." Use this planner to build your own
schedule. Once you select an event and want to add it to your personal
schedule, just click on the calendar icon of your choice (outlook
calendar, ical calendar or google calendar) and that event will be
stored there. As you select events in this manner, you will have your
own schedule to guide you through the week.
You can also create your personal schedule on the SC11 app (Boopsie) on your smartphone. Simply select a session you want to attend and "add" it to your plan. Continue in this manner until you have created your own personal schedule. All your events will appear under "My Event Planner" on your smartphone.
Hybrid Solutions with a Vector-Architecture for Efficiency
SESSION: Heterogeneous Computing
EVENT TYPE: Exhibitor Forum
TIME: 2:00PM - 2:30PM
Presenter(s):Rudolf Fischer
ROOM:WSCC 611/612
ABSTRACT: The important topic of HPC these days is sustained performance on real applications per total cost of ownership. NEC’s target is to optimise this by providing hybrid systems, addressing the diversity of user requirements in the optimal way.
NEC’s scalar product line, the LX-Series, is based on industry-standard components and very successful because of NEC’s ability to maximize application performance on x86-based and GPU-accelerated compute clusters.
Vector architectures feature a high efficiency by design. Therefore NEC is developing the next generation NEC SX vector system focussing on TCO-enhancements through superior computational and power efficiency.
The real challenge lies in the seamless integration of a variety of such components into a hybrid system. NEC has installed such systems at big customer sites, getting valuable feedback, and is working to enhance the seamless integration to improve the personal efficiency of the scientific user.
