Short Introduction: This talk reviews the history of the changing “balances” between computation, memory latency, and memory bandwidth in deployed HPC systems, then discusses how the underlying technology changes led to these market shifts. Key metrics are the increasing relative “cost” of memory accesses and the massive increases in concurrency that are required to obtain […]
SC16 Invited Speaker Spotlight: Dr. Kristin A. Persson Presents “The Materials Project – A Google of Materials”
Short Introduction: This talk will focus on how The Materials Project (www.materialsproject.org) is harnessing the power of supercomputing together with state-of-the-art quantum mechanical theory to compute the properties of all known inorganic materials and beyond, design novel materials and offer the data for free to the community together with online analysis and design algorithms. Invited […]
Don’t Miss SC16’s 55 Great Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions
The Birds-of-a-Feather (BOF) component of the SC16 technical program will feature 55 BOF sessions spanning a range of important and timely topics, including hardware and software research, government program updates and various areas of computational science. These 55 sessions will run throughout the day (Tuesday through Thursday) in parallel with other elements of the technical […]
SC16 Invited Talk Spotlight: Dr. Tamara G. Kolda Presents “Parallel Multiway Methods for Compression of Massive Data and Other Applications”
Short Introduction: Scientists are drowning in data. The scientific data produced by high-fidelity simulations and high-precision experiments are far too massive to store long term. The unwieldy nature of the data makes it difficult to analyze or to retain for future analysis or comparison. Data compression is a necessity, but there are surprisingly few options […]
SC15 Paper Highlighted in Effort to Raise HPC Research Integrity to Serve as Basis for SC16 SCC Reproducibility Application Challenge
Authors of a paper judged at SC15 in Austin, Texas, have transformed a portion of their experiment into an application challenge for the SC16 Student Cluster Competition (SCC) as part of a larger effort to raise the bar for experimental research in computing. SC is responding to the growing need for scientific repeatability, replicability and […]
