Since 1993 we compile and publish twice a year a list of the mostpowerful supercomputers in the world. In this article we compare the situation of High-Performance Computing (HPC)...
Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing, and are thus attractive in real-time applications. When all computers are up and ...
A recent trend in modern high performance computing (HPC) system architectures employs “lean” compute nodes running a lightweight operating system (OS). Certain parts of the OS...
The interconnect plays a key role in both the cost and performance of large-scale HPC systems. The cost of future high-bandwidth electronic interconnects is expected to increase d...
