Boston Brings the Bicycle Powered Viridis to Bangalore for HiPC 2013!

Posted on 02 December, 2013

Hot on the heels of SC'13, December sees the 20th IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing (HiPC) come to Bangalore. And if you're attending you'll find Boston demonstrating the latest server solutions dedicated to energy efficient HPC technology. So for all our friends in Asia who were unable to make it to Denver for SC '13, HiPC is the perfect opportunity to catch us before the end of the year.

Between the 18th and 21st December, members of the High Performance Computing community from around the world will attend HiPC to study HPC activities specific to Asia, discuss current international HPC projects, and examine new research powered by HPC. HiPC is India's premier HPC event, and addresses all aspects of high performance computing systems and their scientific, engineering, and commercial applications. Boston is delighted to be part of the HiPC exhibition on the 19th and 20th of December.

Boston will be bringing the amazing bicycle powered ARM-based Viridis Microserver to HiPC (last seen at SC '13 - below), and the team will be inviting delegates to test their athletic prowess tby powering the Viridis! Those taking on the challenge will be entered into a draw to win the very bike itself!

To further demonstrate Boston's commitment to developing high performance, energy efficient solutions, the Boston booth will be home to a Supermicro FatTwin server cooled by CoolIT Systems' Direct Contact Liquid Cooling (DCLC) technology. Visit the Boston booth to see how liquid cooling can improve server efficiency and increase server density.

In addition to the bicycle to the above, Boston will have the new Supermicro 4U 8x GPU SuperServer on display - the perfect solution for NVIDIA's new Tesla K40 GPU Accelerator. The ultra-high GPU density of this SuperServer solution delivers massive parallel processing power to handle the most complex HPC workloads with the help of the world's fastest GPU accelerator.

HiPC is shaping up to be a fantastic event, with keynote speeches from Xilinix Research Laboratories, NVIDIA, and the Institute for Advanced Computational Science at Stony Brook University. The keynote are supported by a technical program of almost 50 papers addressing a wide range of HPC topics, a student research symposium, and 2 workshops that address cloud computing applications and performance engineering and applications.

We look forward to seeing you there!
