Supercomputing 2016
The International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis.

Deutsches Klimarechenzentrum GmbH (DKRZ)

Das DKRZ präsentiert auf seinem Stand aktuelle, hochaufgelöste Simulationen, die mit dem Hochleistungsrechensystem für Erdsystemforschung "Mistral" berechnet wurden. Regelmäßig unterstützt das DKRZ aufwändige Berechnungen für die Klimamodell-Vergleichsprojekte CMIP (Coupled Model Intercomparison Project), die enorme Datenmengen produzieren. Anhand des CMIP5-Projektes stellt das DKRZ seine Datendienste vor und gibt einen Ausblick auf die Berechnungen für CMIP6. Darüber hinaus stellt das DKRZ als Projektkoordinator das Exzellenzzentrum für europäische Wetter- und Klimamodellierung "ESiWACE" vor. Auf dem DRKZ-Stand erhalten Besucher außerdem Informationen über die neu ins Leben gerufene Kooperation mit JAMSTEC (Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology).

Fraunhofer ITWM

The Fraunhofer Center for HPC is focused on the development of highly parallel applications, corresponding frameworks and tools to enable high scalability. Now we present novel algorithms for Large Scale Machine Learning. The basis for scalable systems are scalable programming models and scalable I/O. GPI2 (Global Address Space Programming Interface) and the parallel filesystem BeeGFS (delivered by the Fraunhofer spin-off ThinkParQ) are 2 scalable and proven HPC core tools for this market. We demonstrate the power of our parallel programming and cloud framework GPI-Space that enables scalable data flow driven applications. The Fraunhofer Center for HPC cooperates with research and industry.
