Workshop “Towards Exascale HPC systems”
Co-design and Technology development within the EuroEXA, ExaNeSt, ExaNoDe and EcoScale projects.
Thursday 31 May 2018, 14:30 – 18:30, co-located with the European HPC Summit Week 2018, Ljubljana, Slovenia
Registration: http://www.eiseverywhere.com/europeanhpcsummitweek18
Employing co-design to ensure technology developments that address the complete computing platform, the 4 projects address low-power, scalable and heterogeneous compute to meet the demands of Exascale computing. EuroEXA leads the System Software and Programming Environment activity, ExaNeSt develops innovative interconnects, storage, and packaging/cooling technologies. EcoScale focuses on integrating the acceleration capabilities of FPGAs. ExaNoDe develops heterogeneous, interposer-based, System-on-a-Chip (SoC) architectures and systems software and programming environments for compute node.
This Workshop will present results from the four projects.
