IU’s new one petaFLOPS system, other innovations take center stage at supercomputing conference

Indiana University will display its leadership in high performance computing and networking technologies at the annual International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis, also known as SC12 (Supercomputing 2012).

This year’s conference takes place from November 10 to 16 in Salt Lake City, Utah. As the largest event of its kind, it brings together leading scientists and researchers from around the globe, as well as representatives from top universities, companies and organizations in the supercomputing field. The IEEE Computer Society and the Association for Computing Machinery sponsor the conference.

“2012 has been a big year for Indiana University IT innovations. From the acquisition of a one petaFLOPS supercomputer, Big Red II, to the launch of Monon100, a 100-gigabits-per-second network link for research and education, IU clearly leads higher education in HPC and networking technologies,” said Craig Stewart, executive director of IU’s Pervasive Technology Institute and associate dean of Research Technologies. “Our SC12 display will highlight IU’s emerging and revolutionary projects that advance the national research agenda.”
