JSC @ Supercomputing Conference SC'12
10-16 November 2012
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
SC12, the premier international exhibition and conference on high-performance computing, networking, storage, and analysis, will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, from 10 to 16 November 2012, where JSC will present its supercomputing activities at booth #707. JSC staff will demonstrate scientific simulations on supercomputers and the supercomputing tools LLView, Scalasca, and UNICORE developed in-house.
JSC's activities on energy-efficient supercomputing will also be showcased, particularly its new petaflop supercomputer JUQUEEN and its involvement in the European Exascale Project DEEP. JSC staff will also be on hand continuously at the PRACE booth (#1243).
As part of the conference programme, JSC staff will give a tutorial on "Supporting Performance Analysis and Optimization on Extreme-Scale Computer Systems", co-organize a workshop on "Extreme-Scale Performance Tools", present talks, and will participate in numerous special interest group sessions ("Bird-of-a-Feather", BoF). In particular, JSC is co-organizing the session on "Exascale Research - The European Approach". JSC staff member Dr. Bernd Mohr will chair this year's awards session.
