High Performance or High Functionality or both?
|
Posted by Ken Farmer on Friday May 04 2007 @ 02:39PM EDT views: 1102
IT-Director.com: Readers of these pages will have noticed that Concertant is described as being both an HPC and an HFC practice. While HPC clearly stands for High Performance Computing, what does HFC mean? The answer is High Functionality Computing. An odd thing to link to HPC? perhaps not. Read on.

Looking for needles in haystacks, and other quixotic pasttimes

Scalability.org: I have been wanting to get CCS adoption data. It helps us understand whether this is a viable target for software development, and whether or not we want to invest limited resources in it. We had been asked previously by Microsoft to “benchmark” applications, though they seem to have missed our point about porting the applications to run fast natively before we benchmark.

Boeing Tests High-Performance Computing Cluster, Significantly Improves Processing Time
|
Posted by Ken Farmer on Friday April 27 2007 @ 06:01PM EDT views: 1012
Whitepaper: The Distributed Software and Systems Integrations (DSSI) group in the Phantom Works advanced research and development organization at Boeing, a global aerospace company, wanted faster processing of finite element analysis projects and a platform that could handle a spectrum of applications. Engineers processed jobs on local workstations and sought a solution that would speed up service delivery to internal customers. Boeing required a platform that would be easier to use and could accommodate a wide variety of Windows-based
applications. The company selected Windows® Compute
Cluster Server 2003 on an HP Cluster Platform 4000
in a lab testbed environment to evaluate application
compatibility and performance.

How to detect CCS
|
Posted by Ken Farmer on Friday April 27 2007 @ 10:19AM EDT views: 1162
Because ISVs have to support solutions from multiple vendors, I frequently get asked: "How do I know if I am running on CCS?" It's a good question. Also, as future versions of the product get shipped, it will be increasingly important to be able to tell which version of CCS is installed, so that setup programs can be act accordingly.

Webcast: RADIOSS-Altair Engineering's Solution for Crash and Multi Physics Analysis on CCS
|
Posted by Amy Marino on Thursday April 19 2007 @ 05:13PM EDT views: 969
High-performance computing (HPC) is a crucial capability for many industries involved in structural CAE design - taking into account dynamic loadings like crash, impacts, aero acoustic CAE design and more. The close collaboration between Altair Engineering, a leader in CAE and Microsoft has resulted in a well integrated and seamless solution. Join us for this exciting look into the Altair/Microsoft solution and learn how it combines the supercomputing scalability and performance of RADIOSS, one of the market leading solvers for multi physics simulations (especially Crash) with Windows Compute Cluster Server (CCS).
