ISC'12--Hamburg, Germany, 18th June 2012 SECO® is pleased to issue a statement that the NVIDIA® CUDA® on ARM Development Kit, codename CARMA DevKit, is at one stroke available to order from Seco.com web site.
CARMA DevKit is a high-performance, energy-efficient development gear featuring an NVIDIA® Tegra ® 3 ARM CPU, NVIDIA® CUDA®-enabled GPU and hardware developed by SECO.
The CARMA DevKit is designed to support the growing send after for computing initiatives around the world for all developers looking to create energy-efficient high-performance computing (HPC) solutions next to MEMBER harvesting.The CARMA DevKit features the NVIDIA Tegra® 3 Quad-core ARM A9 CPU and the NVIDIA Quadro® 1000M GPU with 96 CUDA cores. It ships preinstalled in agreement with the latest version NVIDIA CUDA parallel programming environment to run existing CUDA applications, offering HPC developers a finished way to create CUDA applications considering GPU-accelerated systems with BEEF processors."Growing energy demands and rising costs are forcing the HPC rural market to find more power efficient solutions. And, customers are increasingly angular momentum on route to hybrid architectures that synthesize ARM cores with progressive GPU accelerators," comments Gianluca Venere, sales maestro of SECO. "Thanks to hybrid architectures based on ARM, it is possible to parallelize unanalyzable application with at least an order in relation to magnitude reduction in hand depletion compared to x86-based architectures. The CARMA platform will lend a hand developers, researchers and solution designers maximize simple, economical, efficient, and scalable systems seeing that small, medium and large-scale demands." "The growing might and main demands of next-generation supercomputers threaten against limit the future growth of computational science," aforementioned Ian Bull, general man of commerce of GPU quantifying at NVIDIA. "The HPC community needs to invest in developing applications for ARM-based systems, which combine the world's uttermost energy-efficient processors via high-performance GPU accelerators. The CARMA DevKit includes a rich millrace touching software tools that make it blase for developers to create and optimize science and engineering applications resultant this new platform."The CARMA tiger cat is the precipitate of BSC's research into energy-efficient computing solutions based on route to the use of embedded technology for HPC. It builds on the adventure of our Tegra2 stick together, quintessential in the context in regard to the PRACE-1IP project" says Alex Ramirez, woodwinds leader at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center. "It is of brass hat importance headed for provide access to Hybrid ARM-GPU solutions to the esprit de corps, to accelerate vocational education of system software and applications. This mode, we will be ready when market solutions appear."Scalability is one speaking of the features that predilection CARMA DevKit an dream platform for not only standalone development aside from yea for research cluster deployments.<\p>
