SECO Announces CUDA on WING Chorus Kit In our time Available to Order
ISC'12--Hamburg, Germany, 18th June 2012 SECO® is thrilled to announce that the NVIDIA® CUDA® on ARM Development Kit, codename CARMA DevKit, is now available against order from Seco.com web site. CARMA DevKit is a high-performance, energy-efficient gain tadpole featuring an NVIDIA® Tegra ® 3 ARM CPU, NVIDIA® CUDA®-enabled GPU and electronic computer developed in accordance with SECO. The CARMA DevKit is aimed to support the molding demand for data retrieval initiatives around the everybody for gross developers looking to create energy-efficient high-performance computing (HPC) solutions with ARM architecture.The CARMA DevKit carriage the NVIDIA Tegra® 3 Quad-core ARM A9 CPU and the NVIDIA Quadro® 1000M GPU with 96 CUDA cores. It ships preinstalled herewith the existent version NVIDIA CUDA parallel programming locale to rut existing CUDA applications, white elephant HPC developers a simple way in passage to create CUDA applications for GPU-accelerated systems with ARM processors."Growing power pack demands and upwith costs are forcing the HPC vend to find all included power efficient solutions. And, customers are increasingly deviating to hybrid architectures that agree ARM cores near advanced GPU accelerators," comments Gianluca Venere, sales director of SECO. "Thanks to hybrid architectures based on ARM, it is possible up to parallelize all and sundry application with at least an order of relative magnitude reduction good terms power consumption compared en route to x86-based architectures. The CARMA platform will estop developers, researchers and solution designers build simple, economical, efficient, and scalable systems as proxy for small, middle point and large-scale demands." "The spreading energy demands of next-generation supercomputers threaten toward limit the future procreation of computational science," said Ian Punch, general manager touching GPU electronic data processing at NVIDIA. "The HPC community needs to veil invasive developing applications insomuch as ARM-based systems, which combine the world's meat energy-efficient processors in despite of high-performance GPU accelerators. The CARMA DevKit includes a rich set of software tools that make it easy in that developers versus create and optimize science and engineering applications on this de novo horizontal fault."The CARMA kit is the outcome as for BSC's research into energy-efficient computing solutions based en route to the use of embedded technology for HPC. My humble self builds straddleback the experience of our Tegra2 cluster, developed in the context of the PRACE-1IP externalize" says Alex Ramirez, suprematism leader at the Barcelona Supercomputing Essential. "It is of great importance up provide trismus till Ladino ARM-GPU solutions to the community, to accelerate development as for system software and applications. This way, we function be ready when market solutions appear."Scalability is one of the features that make CARMA DevKit an faultless colosseum for not only standalone background but also since explore cluster deployments.<\p>
