CHAMPAIGN, IL —
The August issue of Cyberinfrastructure Technology Watch Quarterly is now available at http://www.ctwatch.org/quarterly/. In "The Coming Era of Low Power, High-Performance Computing: Trends, Promises, and Challenges," guest editor Satoshi Matsuoka from the Tokyo Institute of Technology has assembled a articles from experts in the field who analyze the problems and opportunities confronting the HPC community as its insatiable demand for higher performance runs up against the physical and economic limits imposed by skyrocketing power requirements. Providing refreshing ideas and arguments for new areas of research in energy-efficient HPC, these articles examine and compare alternative strategies for making significant progress in this arena, including novel HPC architectures such as the massively parallel Blue Gene/L at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
Coming in November, the next issue of CTWatch Quarterly will focus on European cyberinfrastructure and e-science, with Tony Hey and Anne Trefethen serving as guest editors.
