Introduction to Authors Mao Qiu Yin: Male, Teamsun, Director Zhiqiang Tian: Male, Teamsun, SW Developer Background The computer system security problem is more and more emphasized by the Chinese government and it has created its own security standards. OpenPOWER as a new open platform, it urgently needs to achieve...
Author: Chandler Wilkerson, Rice University Objective To describe the challenges and lessons learned while installing the IBM Power Ready Platform for Genomic Workflow Acceleration on new IBM POWER8 hardware. Abstract Migrating any workflow to a new hardware platform generates challenges and requires adaptability. With the transition from POWER7 to POWER8,...
Objectives Provide Rackspace’s a point of view about what “the Cloud” needs from OpenPOWER, OCP, and developers in major software initiatives (Open Stack, Linux, Hypervisors, etc). Share observations about working cross functionally amongst development communities, especially ones that develop as-a-Service platforms. How best to engage? Common mistakes. ...
Speaker Mr. Zhu Ya Dong, Chairman of PowerCore, China, Platinum Member of OpenPOWER Foundation Objective The objective is to position China POWER Technology Alliance (CPTA) as a mechanism to help global OpenPOWER Foundation members engage with China organizations on POWER-based implementations in China. Abstract OpenPOWER ecosystem has grown fast in...
Organization PMC-Sierra, OpenPOWER Silver Member Objective The objective of this presentation is to showcase how NVM Express and CAPI can be used together to enable very high performance application acceleration in Power8 based servers. We target applications that are of interest to large data-center/hyper-scale customers such as Hadoop/Hive (map-reduce) and...
Presentation objective PGI Fortran, C and C++ compilers & tools are used on Linux/x86 processor-based systems at over 5000 high-performance computing (HPC) sites around the world. They are distinguished by HPC-focused optimizations including automatic SIMD vectorization, and extensive support for parallel and accelerator programming models and languages...
