ISC'16

The International Supercomputing Conference 2016, or short ISC’16, is already casting its glow. At the very latest since the announcement of the Hans Meuer, the GAUSS and the PRACE award winning papers as well as the keynote and distinguished speakers, the whole HPC community is getting excited for the conference and exhibit, taking place from June 19 to 22, 2016, in Frankfurt, Germany.

Compared to recent years, the 2016 organization committee has adjusted some parameters to improve the conference programme. Together with various cooperation partners the DEEPprojects would like to make our tiny contribution to an overall successful technical agenda:

DEEPprojects participation in the technical programme

• PhD Forum: NAM – Network Attached Memory – Mon, June 20, 1:00pm

As usual visitors will also find us at the exhibition floor. This year we will focus on our I/O and resiliency concepts and talk about how we make use of innovative memory technologies in our DEEP-ER platform.

Find us at the exhibition floor

• European Exascale Projects, booth #1340. Together with our partner projects Mont-Blanc, EPiGRAM, EXA2CT and Numexas we will present and discuss latest developments of our research. We are more than happy to welcome the new European Exascale projects funded via the H2020 framework and represented at the booth via EXDCI.

• Partner booth: Please use the opportunity to visit the booths of our project partners at ISC’16 for any detailed questions you might have: Barcelona Supercomputing Centre (#1202), Eurotech (#412), EXTOLL (#610), Fraunhofer ITWM (#640), Intel (#930), Jülich Supercomputing Centre + Leibniz Supercomputing Centre: GAUSS booth (#1310), Seagate (#1220)
