Learn Why the Future Is Parallel
Professor Gyan Bhanot of Rutgers said it best: "Teaching modern computer science on single processor computers is like teaching thermodynamics with one molecule." To be competitive in the 21st century, students need to be comfortable with thousands of parallel processors.
The SiCortex SC5832, with its 5,832 64-bit Linux processors, is the industry’s only affordable system with thousands of processors. We have learned a great deal while working on this new frontier of computing and would like to share our experience with you.
Sign-up to sponsor our lunch and learn seminar, "The View From 5832" that encapsulates our insights about the unique behavior of applications when they run on thousands of processors. In particular, we will show you how a new level of communications performance — a fabric fully able to keep pace with thousands of processors — is allowing applications to return to a much more natural and maintainable balance.
At the seminar we will have our desk-side SC072 system that ZD-net recently named the "Sexiest Product at Supercomputing 07.” This powerful, workstation-size cluster in a box hosts 72 individual CPU cores and 48GB of memory, and consumes less than 200 watts of power.
