Converging High Performance infrastructures: Supercomputers, clouds, accelerators
- Alan Sill (Texas Tech University)
In the field of high energy physics, with the advancement of several large-scale scientific experiments, the speed of data production is constantly increasing, and it will reach EB level in the next decade. This puts forward higher request to data storage and computation processing. In order to reduce the dependence on single type chip architecture and provide a more cost-effective storage and...
In recent years, compute performances of GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) dramatically increased, especially in comparison to those of CPUs (Central Processing Units). Large computing infrastructures such as HPC (High Performance Computing) centers or cloud providers offer high performance GPUs to their users. GPUs are nowadays the hardware of choice for several applications involving massive...
Given the growing computing needs of the LHC experiments facing the start of the Run 3 and the High-Luminosity era, it is crucial to gain access to and ensure the efficient exploitation of new resources. The CMS computing ecosystem presents a number of standardized methods for authentication and authorization, access to remotely stored data and software deployment, enabling access to WLCG...
CNGrid, the national high-performance computing environment in China, is consist of high-performance computing resources contributed by many supercomputing centers, universities and research institutes. It aims to provide high quality computing services to scientific researchers and industrial users. In last few years, CNGrid focused on upgrading its service and operation to higher levels, and...
