En el foro ha destacado la presencia de Florian Reutsh (Ministro de Economía, Transporte, Urbanismo y Desarrollo Regional de Hesse).

Las compañías del estado alemán de Hesse demandan más de 150.000 trabajadores, fundamentalmente ingenieros industriales (construcción, electrónica, maquinaria y automoción), aeronáuticos e informáticos, con inglés a nivel de negociación y buen dominio de alemán.

El presidente de la Cámara de Comercio de Madrid, Arturo Fernández, junto con la Consejera de Educación de la Comunidad de Madrid, Lucía Figar, y el Ministro Consejero de la Embajada Alemana en Madrid, Ulrich Sante, pusieron de manifiesto la importancia de formar en el idioma alemán a los futuros trabajadores madrileños, así como el acuerdo firmado con este fin entre la Comunidad de Madrid y las autoridades de Hesse.

Englobe Technologies participa en la Conferencia Internacional de Supercomputación (International Supercomputing Conference – ISC) que tendrá lugar en Hamburgo (Alemania) del 30 de Mayo al 3 de Junio.

En esta ocasión Englobe Technologies presentara casos de aplicaciones bajo Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 funcionando en el Supercomputador de escritorio Cray CX1.

“ScaleMP is a leader in the high-performance computing space and will now, with this latest SPECjbb result, further raise the bar for commercial application performance and innovation,” said Shai Fultheim, founder and CTO of ScaleMP. “vSMP Foundation delivers an entirely new software approach to systems scale, demonstrating the powerful capabilities of aggregating commodity x86 servers into large virtual SMPs. Most other solutions on the market require dedicated systems and offer lesser performance at a higher price.”

El grupo de Investigación Aplicada en Ingeniería de Automoción de la británica Universidad de Coventry, ha pasado a usar el entorno virtualizado de supercomputación de ScaleMP como infraestructura de supercomputación. Esto ha permitido una mejora en prestaciones con respecto al anterior equipamiento de HPC tradicional del que disponían, así como una administración más simple de los sistemas.

La citada Universidad había considerado migrar a un sistema MPI basado en la arquitectura x86 y adicionalmente invertir en un sistema de multiproceso simétrico SMP que este grupo reclamaba. Gracias a vSMP Foundation, se ha logrado cubrir ambas necesidades reduciendo el coste y centralizando su administración.

“Somos científicos, no expertos en IT. Necesitábamos un sistema que funcione bien con nuestro software y nos ahorre tiempo para permitir centrarnos que creemos que son los problemas teóricos y modelos más exigentes. Queremos un sistema que trabaje sin errores a un alto nivel de rendimiento de forma que podamos despreocuparnos de él”, dijo Carol Roberts, miembro del grupo de investigación.

vSMP Foundation permite agrupar hasta 16 servidores en un único sistema SMP virtual con hasta 1TB de memoria compartida y 128 cores.

Englobe Technologies dispone ahora de una unidad de demostración Cray

High-End Cray XT6 Supercomputer and Midrange Cray XT6m System Will Extend Cray’s Performance and Productivity Leadership on Challenging Applications
Seattle, WA and Portland, OR – November 16, 2009 – At the 2009 Supercomputing  Conference in Portland, Oregon, global supercomputer leader Cray Inc. (Nasdaq GM: CRAY) today announced the newest upgrades to the company’s industry-leading Cray XT™ supercomputer series.

The high-end Cray XT6™ supercomputer system and its fully-compatible Cray XT6m™ midrange counterpart will combine Cray’s unmatched scalability and architecture with AMD’s (NYSE: AMD) newest innovations in processing for high performance computing (HPC). Scheduled for general availability in the second quarter of 2010, the Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems will continue to set the standard for HPC performance, productivity and energy efficiency.

“The Cray XT5 system was the world’s first supercomputer to achieve sustained petascale performance on customer applications and has played a major role in a number of important scientific breakthroughs around the world,” said Peter Ungaro, president and CEO of Cray. “The new Cray XT6 product will continue to efficiently scale performance to the highest levels for our customers. Its new midrange counterpart, the Cray XT6m, is our second generation of supercomputer designed to effectively scale down our successful high-end solutions and provide the same benefits to a much broader set of scientists and engineers.”

Designed to support the most challenging HPC workloads, the new Cray XT6 system combines unprecedented scalability with exceptional manageability, attractive cost of ownership and broad application support to produce the world’s most productive general-purpose supercomputer. As with all Cray XT systems, the Cray XT6 supercomputer is upgradeable with future planned enhancements to hardware and software, and current Cray XT5™ supercomputer customers can upgrade to the Cray XT6 system.

The Cray XT6m supercomputer embodies the same design philosophy by scaling down the industry-leading architecture of Cray’s high-end supercomputer systems, preserving upgradeability and creating a cost-effective product with superior performance for the midrange segment of the HPC market. The Cray XT6m supercomputer is based on the same architecture and software used in Cray’s largest supercomputing systems, but with an optimized network for system sizes ranging from 700 to 13,000 cores (or one to six cabinets).

To continue to reduce energy usage and lower the total cost of ownership for customers, both the Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems feature an enhanced flat-top design that further improves Cray’s industry-leading ECOphlex™ liquid cooling technology.

“Both supercomputing systems feature AMD Opteron 6100 Series processors, the powerful and reliable Cray SeaStar interconnect, and Cray’s entire software stack, which has been proven to the petascale performance level,” said Barry Bolding, Cray’s vice president of scalable systems. “Cray’s innovation, combined with AMD’s strong roadmap, is a winning combination for the Cray XT line of supercomputers and for our customers.”

The compute blades in both the Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems feature four compute nodes designed for high scalability in a small footprint and can be configured with up to 96 processor cores per blade or more than 2,300 processor cores per cabinet. Each compute node is composed of two AMD Opteron™ 6100 Series processors (the eight and 12-core “Maranello” platform), each coupled with its own memory and dedicated Cray Seastar2+™ interconnect. The compute nodes in the Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems can also be configured with 32 GB or 64 GB DDR3 memory.

“For the past six years, Cray and AMD have worked closely together to forge a new era in HPC – an era of high performance and high parallelism,” said Patrick Patla, vice president and general manager, Server/Workstation and Embedded Division, AMD. “Cray has taken full advantage of the scalability advancements in processing cores that we have made in order to design, build and deliver tightly integrated systems.  AMD shares in Cray’s excitement for the Cray XT6 and Cray XT6m systems, and we are pleased that the upcoming new ‘Maranello’ platform is an integral part of these new supercomputers.”

Cray’s first customer for the new Cray XT6 system is the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), which is the managing agent for the High-End Computing Terascale Resource (HECToR) project located at Scotland’s University of Edinburgh.  The HECToR service continues to be at the forefront of HPC in Europe and demonstrates its leadership position by improving its ability to provide HPC capability. The new Cray XT6 system will allow computational scientists in the U.K. to push the frontiers of science even further.

The Cray XT6 series of supercomputers is not only one of the leading HPC systems worldwide, it is also in position to push forward to new heights in 2010. With an infrastructure that is designed to be fully upgradeable, the Cray XT6 series can facilitate upgrades to anticipated future “Interlagos” 12- and 16-core processors from AMD, as well as network upgrades that will push the boundaries of HPC – providing functionalities that are unavailable at these scales today. Cray expects to announce further enhancements that will provide owners of Cray XT6 systems with continuing improvements in reliability, HPC-specific features and performance over standard clusters, and provide years of leadership-class performance – ultimately lowering the total cost of computing and providing more value to the most demanding of customers.
