TERATEC Forum 2012
Workshop 2 - Thursday, June 28, 2012, 09:00/13:00
Exascale Challenges

Chairperson : Marie Christine SAWLEY, EXASCALE COMPUTING RESEARCH/INTEL

Nevertheless,  the route to exascale still requires major brea

The goal of Exascale computing is to multiply by one thousand the performance of the fastest machine on operation.   Reaching this goal on the top end will also mean that the standard server available for our daily work will benefit from this very high density, delivering hundreds of teraflops, if not petaflop, at our finger tips. This will help to generate much faster, more precise and more complex simulations, higher quality medical imaging will yield faster medical diagnostic and treatment, and, with such a computing power, Big Data will open opportunities for personalized medicine or will provide new ground breaking correlations.

kthroughs both on hardware and software solutions : the platform itself will be radically different, the software stack needs major changes  due to extreme parallelism and the synchronization between the two, at the heart of co-design, will be of upmost importance to meet the power, reliability, performance and operational challenges.

This session, with high level scientific content, will cover different aspects of HPC application and extreme parallelism challenges: four European researchers will share the state of art of innovation in numerical models to minimize communication, to increase arithmetic intensity or to allow for optimal usage of global data.  Hybrid programming models and the latest research on data transfer will also be part of the agenda.
