With a history of student participation and committee service, LLNL computer scientist Kathleen Shoga chaired this year’s competition.
Topic: Cluster Management
Computing relies on engineers like Stephanie Brink to keep the legacy codes running smoothly. “You’re only as fast as your slowest processor or your slowest function,” says Brink, who works in CASC. By analyzing a legacy code’s performance, Brink and her team can reduce the amount of time it takes to run and allow for more critical science to be accomplished.
Large Linux data centers require flexible system management. At Livermore Computing, we are committed to supporting our Linux ecosystem at the high end of commodity computing.
Researchers are developing a standardized and optimized operating system and software for deployment across Linux clusters to enable HPC at a reduced cost.
New platforms are improving big data computing on Livermore’s high performance computers.
