IBM announced the availability of 64-bit processing power for the IBM Cluster 1350, a leading-edge Linux cluster solution. The new high-density IBM e325 Model 240, 242 and 246 nodes offer 1 or 2 AMD Opteron processors running at speeds of 1.4GHz, 1.6GHz and 2.0GHz, respectively.

The Cluster 1350 combines AMD64 technology, fast networking and storage to create flexible turnkey solutions for high performance computing (HPC) and commercial application environments.

OctigaBay introduced today a new High Performance Computing (HPC) platform that promises three times greater price/performance over state-of-the-art HPC servers. The OctigaBay 12K combines breakthrough interconnect and management technologies with AMD Opteron 64-bit processors, overcoming major shortcomings that severely limit performance, reliability and usability. These innovations make the OctigaBay 12K ideal for simulation, modeling, searching, sorting, data mining and other processing intensive applications.

Thirty times faster than Gigabit Ethernet, the OctigaBay 12K high speed interconnect fuses the AMD Opteron 64-bit processors directly to a high performance interconnect fabric through an innovative communications technology, eliminating bottlenecks inherent in today's solutions.

Solving Fluid Flow & Heat Transfer within the Pro/ENGINEER Environment

HP, Lexington, Boston, USA December 9, 2003

Who should attend:

• Managers who would like to maximize productivity and functionality of your existing CAE environment
• Designers requiring efficient protocols to rapidly evaluate design space

Our CFD plug-ins for Pro/ENGINEER have been developed to meet the demands of engineers for a single CAD and CFD solution that can speed product development, cut costs and improve product design. The tight integration of CFD with CAD, enables easier parametric design studies through enhanced automation and bi-directional associativity between CAD and CFD models.

In order to allow for a precise validation of the new models, complex industrial test cases will be treated, even in the case where property rights will not allow for distribution of the desired geometry and/or test case. The complex test cases are of utmost importance for industry to demonstrate improvements in turbulence modelling in current industrial environments.

The project download page contains a number of freely available workshop documents and presentations.

It will be nice to hear some comments about my work here.
