Army Research Laboratory Major Shared Resource Center - In late 2008, the Army Research Laboratory Major Shared Resource Center (ARL MSRC) will increase its computing capability from 100 to 200 TFLOPS. This factor of two increase in capability will make the ARL MSRC one of the most capable computing centers in the Department of Defense (DoD).
Three Cray XT5s were procured for the ARL MSRC as part of the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program’s (HPCMP) Technology Insertion 2008, an initiative to modernize the DoD’s high performance computing capabilities. The HPCMP provides the supercomputer services, high-speed network communications, and computational science expertise that enables the U.S. Defense laboratories, such as the ARL MSRC, to conduct a wide range of focused research, development, and testing activities.
"Today’s scientists are challenged with moving new ideas, technologies and capabilities from concept to warfighter capability more quickly than ever before. This increased computational power will ensure that our scientists and engineers can solve increasingly complex problems in real time, providing our warfighters the latest weapons systems, tactical capabilities and strategic technologies in a reduced timeframe", said Charles J. Nietubicz, Director of the ARL MSRC and Chief of the Advanced Computing and Computational Sciences Division in the Computational and Information Sciences Directorate.
High Performance Computing Center at the University of New Mexico - The Center for High Performance Computing is the focal point for all aspects of high performance computing at the University of New Mexico. The Center is organized around vertically integrated teams that combine research in systems, middleware, and algorithms to enable fundamental scientific and engineering advances.
International Conference on Parallel Processing (ICPP 2005) - The conference provides a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry and government to present their latest research findings in any aspects of parallel and distributed computing. Held at the Georg Sverdrups House, Univ. of Oslo, Norway, June 14-17, 2005
International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS) - IPDPS is an international forum for engineers and scientists from around the world to present their latest research findings in all aspects of parallel computation. In addition to technical sessions of submitted paper presentations, the meeting offers workshops, tutorials, an industrial track, and commercial exhibits.
Maui High Performance Computing Center - The Maui High Performance Computing Center (MHPCC) is a national supercomputing center established in 1993 by the University of New Mexico under a Cooperative Agreement with the Air Force Research Laboratory. A leader in scalable parallel computing, MHPCC supports a base of 1,200 users from DoD, government, commercial, and academic organizations.
