Environments that support supercomputing and high-performance computing have traditionally been deployed to bare-metal hardware. Improvements in virtualization technologies now make it possible to run ...

High-performance computing (HPC) for the past ten years has been dominated by thousands of Linux servers connected by a uniform networking infrastructure. The defining theme for an HPC cluster lies in ...

High-performance computing is, according to Nucciarone's slides: "A paradigm where you use supercomputers, computing clusters and grids to solve advanced scientific challenges." Nucciarone — a ...

The biggest mistake in the cloud-versus-on-premise HPC debate is treating it as a technology contest. It is not. An on ...

High-performance computing arose decades ago as an affordable and scalable method for tackling difficult math problems. Today, many organizations turn to HPC to approach complex computing tasks such ...

It is very rare indeed to get benchmark data on HPC applications that shows it scaling over a representative number of nodes, and it is never possible to get cost allocations presented that allow for ...

As costs drop and use cases multiply, high performance computing is attracting new adopters of all types and sizes. Expanding options include supercomputer-based HPC systems, cluster-based HPC, and ...

The build versus buy argument for high performance computing clusters has gathered steam lately, in part because some of the critical missing pieces both performance and software ecosystem-wise are ...

ARCC's SLURM HPC Scheduling Policy is subject to adjustments. These proposed changes are intended to improve and incentivize the following: Encourage fair-share access to ARCC resources and limit ...

Cardiff University has deployed 90 Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, with Logicalis technology, to support high-performance computing (HPC) research. The university’s Advanced Research Computing @Cardiff ...
