This book was released on 2017-05-29 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific research is traditionally conducted through theory or experimentation, both of which generate data that requires the capacity to be processed and analyzed. The invention of computers permitted this data to be examined with increased speed and complexity. As computational technology advanced, this capacity increased in pace and capability, while the data generated from various sensors and experiments also increased in volume. The advent of scientific discovery in which large volumes of data is gathered and mined to exploit information, sometimes referred to as "big data," has transformed computing technology needs. The greater availability and utilization of these high-speed supercomputers allows increasingly complex scientific research to be achieved. Medical research, energy and environment system simulations, computational chemistry, and innumerable other scientific problems directly benefit from high-performance computing (HPC). Computing speed is measured in floating-point operations per second, or flops. In the 1970's, the first supercomputers had a capacity of about 100 megaflops, or 100 million flops. Through forty years of technology advancement, computing capacity climbed through gigaflops (10 DEGREES9 calculations per second) and teraflops (10 DEGREES12), to current HPC capacity of petaflops (10 DEGREES15). Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of a thousand-fold increase over current petascale computers, or the capability to do a quintillion, 10 DEGREES18, calculations per second. To put this in context, there are currently about 1 sextillion (10 DEGREES21) known stars in the universe - therefore "an exascale computer could count every star in the universe

Download or read book Applications Tools and Techniques on the Road to Exascale Computing written by Koen de Bosschere and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Single processing units have now reached a point where further major improvements in their performance are restricted by their physical limitations. This is causing a slowing down in advances at the same time as new scientific challenges are demanding exascale speed. This has meant that parallel processing has become key to High Performance Computing (HPC). This book contains the proceedings of the 14th biennial ParCo conference, ParCo2011, held in Ghent, Belgium. The ParCo conferences have traditionally concentrated on three main themes: Algorithms, Architectures and Applications. Nowadays though, the focus has shifted from traditional multiprocessor topologies to heterogeneous and manycores, incorporating standard CPUs, GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) and FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). These platforms are, at a higher abstraction level, integrated in clusters, grids and clouds. The papers presented here reflect this change of focus. New architectures, programming tools and techniques are also explored, and the need for exascale hardware and software was also discussed in the industrial session of the conference.This book will be of interest to all those interested in parallel computing today, and progress towards the exascale computing of tomorrow.
Download or read book Transition of HPC Towards Exascale Computing written by E.H. D'Hollander and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US, Europe, Japan and China are racing to develop the next generation of supercomputers – exascale machines capable of 10 to the 18th power calculations a second – by 2020. But the barriers are daunting: the challenge is to change the paradigm of high-performance computing. The 2012 biennial high performance workshop, held in Cetraro, Italy in June 2012, focused on the challenges facing the computing research community to reach exascale performance in the next decade. This book presents papers from this workshop, arranged into four major topics: energy, scalability, new architectural concepts and programming of heterogeneous computing systems. Chapter 1 introduces the status of present supercomputers, which are still about two orders of magnitude separated from the exascale mark. Chapter 2 examines energy demands, a major limiting factor of today's fastest supercomputers; the quantum leap in performance required for exascale computing will require a shift in architectures and technology. In Chapter 3, scalable computer paradigms for dense linear algebra on massive heterogeneous systems are presented, and Chapter 4 discusses architectural concepts. Finally, Chapter 5 addresses the programming of heterogeneous systems. This book will be of interest to all those wishing to understand how the development of modern supercomputers is set to advance in the next decade.

Download or read book Parallel Computing Technology Trends written by I. Foster and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 806 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 2019 marked four decades of cluster computing, a history that began in 1979 when the first cluster systems using Components Off The Shelf (COTS) became operational. This achievement resulted in a rapidly growing interest in affordable parallel computing for solving compute intensive and large scale problems. It also directly lead to the founding of the Parco conference series. Starting in 1983, the International Conference on Parallel Computing, ParCo, has long been a leading venue for discussions of important developments, applications, and future trends in cluster computing, parallel computing, and high-performance computing. ParCo2019, held in Prague, Czech Republic, from 10 – 13 September 2019, was no exception. Its papers, invited talks, and specialized mini-symposia addressed cutting-edge topics in computer architectures, programming methods for specialized devices such as field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and graphical processing units (GPUs), innovative applications of parallel computers, approaches to reproducibility in parallel computations, and other relevant areas. This book presents the proceedings of ParCo2019, with the goal of making the many fascinating topics discussed at the meeting accessible to a broader audience. The proceedings contains 57 contributions in total, all of which have been peer-reviewed after their presentation. These papers give a wide ranging overview of the current status of research, developments, and applications in parallel computing.
