An Assessment of Leadership Performance With POWER6 Processors and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1 2008-01-31 IBM

Compute-intensive performance is increasingly required for today's high-performance environments. The IBM System p 570 with POWER6 processors provides leadership performance and demonstrates excellent scalability moving from one node to four nodes in this environment while providing linear SMP (Symmetric Multiprocessing) scaling and growth for workloads similar to the metrics used here. This paper highlights the exceptional performance on IBM's POWER6 processor-based systems running with the latest Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5.1 operating system, based on recently audited published SPEC CPU2006 and SPECjbb2005 results, including single-system LINPACK metrics on System p 570 4-core, 8-core and 16-core systems. With Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) support turned on, Linux is easily able to provide effective scheduling support of the 32 processor threads seen on the 16-core 570 system.

Dell Helps University Create a Superhuman Machine 2008-01-31 Dell

The existing system at the Computational Laboratory for Analysis, Modeling, and Visualization (CLAMV) at Jacobs University in Bremen lacked sufficient computing power to satisfy rising demands. For various departments within the university to conduct a series of computer-aided simulation and modeling solutions, it needed to improve its processing power. They needed to continue making the institution's computer-aided simulation and modeling solutions available to its users in specialist disciplines. CLAMV turned to Dell for its solution and implemented a new high-performance cluster. The system is driven by 320 processor cores at 2.9 teraflops.

Developed a Feature Rich Speed Controller Board for a Leading Air Conditioning Company That Would Equip the Client to Be First Mover in the Market 2008-01-26 MindTree Consulting

The client wanted to take to market the All Electric Air Conditioning System for large vehicles. The system would control evaporator fan speeds to ensure uniform temperature control and increase safety. MindTree leveraged its expertise in hardware design and development to develop a microcontroller based system with enhanced features that reduced the time to market for the final product. The new design reduced the product cost without compromising on safety and reliability.

45-nm Manufacturing Creating the Next Wave of Quad-Core Processors

This Might Be the Last Place You'd Expect to Find an Intel Processor 2008-01-01 Intel

Finding a processing platform that runs so efficiently has been challenging for developers like GD Canada. Proprietary technology can offer the performance and power efficiency needed, but such solutions are often vendor-specific, take a very long time to develop and deploy, and can be quite costly to maintain, let alone upgrade. Intel really attacked the thermal output and power consumption problem when they came out with the Intel Pentium M processor and associated chipsets. Shortly after Intel launched the Intel Pentium M processor, the U.S. Army announced the Future Combat System (FCS) program, a move to standardize the Army's entire vehicle computing infrastructure on a common product.

An Innovative Tool to Benchmark Smartphone Operating Systems 2008-01-01 Jakajima

Jakajima, a knowledge and information provider for the telecom, ICT, and consumer-electronics trade chain, noticed that no real benchmark has been developed for Smartphone Operating Systems, while the importance of the smartphone and its' OS is growing rapidly. Together with Eindhoven University of Technology, Jakajima has developed a benchmark for these Operating systems. With this benchmark, Jakajima and Eindhoven University of Technology offer the market (OS developers, application developers, hardware suppliers, operators etc.) new innovative tools to compare their mobile products and/or applications in an independent way. The benchmark is an ideal tool in any phase of a product; during concept, development and deployment. This paper provides the approach, methodology and some results.
