SC15 Panel Line-Up for Nov. 20th
HPC Transforms DoD, DOE, and Industrial Product Design, Development, and Acquisition Supercomputing has been shown to enable massive reductions in product development time, significant improvements in product capability, greater design innovation in new products, and effective systems engineering implementations. Our panelists will share their intimate knowledge of the various methods and practices by which these […]
SC15 Invited Talk – Nils Thuerey Presents Virtual and Real Flows: Challenges for Digital Special Effects
To get the motion of a crown splash right, surface tension is crucial. The simulation shown here uses a mesh-based approach (please click on photo to enlarge). Physics simulations for virtual smoke, explosions or water are by now crucial tools for special effects in feature films. Despite their wide spread use, there are central challenges […]
SC15 Student Cluster Competition Fires Things Up with Secret Sauce
SCC Secret Sauce Salsa secreta. Geheime Sosse. Secret sauce. 紹兴. 沙茶. No matter how you say it, that extra special ingredient known only to you can sometimes make all the difference in the world. And that’s just what nine teams of students are hoping as they converge on Austin, Texas, to demonstrate their prowess in […]
SC15 Invited Talk Spotlight: Dr. Yutaka Ishikawa Presents System Software in Post K Supercomputer
The K computer manufactured by Fujitsu, currently installed at the RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computational Science campus in Kobe, Japan. The next flagship supercomputer in Japan, replacement of K supercomputer, is being designed toward general operation in 2020. Compute nodes, based on a many core architecture, connected by a 6-D mesh/torus network is considered. A […]

Mentor-Protégé Program Needs You
Mentor Jim Ahrens of Los Alamos National Laboratory meets with his protégé, Maria Ruiz, at SC14. Organized as part of the Students@SC program, the Mentor-Protégé Program supports the growth of a vibrant HPC community by connecting the newcomers at the SC conference with experienced conference attendees. The mentors share their experiences from previous SC conferences […]
SC15 Panel Line-Up for Nov. 19th
Asynchronous Many-Task Programming Models for Next Generation Platforms Next generation platform architectures will require us to fundamentally rethink our programming models and environments due to a combination of factors including extreme parallelism, data locality issues, and resilience. As seen in the computational sciences community, asynchronous many-task (AMT) programming models and runtime systems are emerging as […]
SC15 Invited Talk Spotlight: Revealing the Hidden Universe – Supercomputer Simulations of Black Hole Mergers
Numerical Relativity simulation of Binary Black Holes by Campanelli et al, 2006. Supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies power some of the most energetic phenomena in the Universe. Our understanding of these extremely powerful events and their observations has numerous exciting consequences for our understanding of galactic evolution, black hole demographics, plasmas in […]
SC15 Panel Line-Up for Nov. 18th
Supercomputing and Big Data: From Collision to Convergence As data intensive science emerges, the need for high performance computing (HPC) to converge capacity and capabilities with Big Data becomes more apparent and urgent. Capacity requirements have stemmed from science data processing and the creation of large scale data products (e.g., earth observations, Large Hadron Collider, […]
