Nvidia: Examining The Threat From Intel’s Xeon Phi
Intel is a fierce player and represents the first legitimate competitive threat that Nvidia has seen in the space. I believe, however, that Intel’s competitive position in this nascent field is overstated in the near- to medium-term and that expanding TAM and strong leadership from Nvidia’s team should ensure that the segment’s sales and profitability continue to grow, even if Intel gets a piece of the action.
Heterogeneous System Architecture: Purpose and Outlook
The HSA Foundation, known as the “HSAF”, is an open, industry standard consortium founded to define and deliver open standards and tools for hardware and software to fully take advantage of high performance of parallel compute engines, and do so in the lowest possible power envelope.
Keeneland Project Deploys Full Scale GPU Supercomputing System
The Keeneland Full Scale System is a 615 TFLOPS HP Proliant SL250-based supercomputer with 264 nodes, where each node contains two Intel Sandy Bridge processors, three NVIDIA M2090 GPU accelerators, 32 GB of host memory, and a Mellanox InfiniBand FDR interconnection network.
