University Delivers Research with Intel® Xeon® Processor E5: Study
Kyoto University builds a 1,202-socket cluster supercomputer to deliver advanced information services to research institutes throughout Japan using the Intel® Xeon® processor E5 family.
Challenges
• Delivery of high-speed supercomputer services to researchers and research institutions inside and outside academia
• Installation of cluster supercomputer with superior node and network performance
• Lower heat generation and improved power efficiency
Solutions
• Cluster supercomputer using Intel® Xeon® processor E5 family
• Intel® Cluster Studio XE suite of tools for MPI developers
Highly Versatile Supercomputer for Wide Variety of Research Applications
The Academic Center for Computing and Media Studies at Kyoto University (ACCMS) undertakes research and development aimed at advanced applications of IT platforms and media. It feeds the results of this research back into enhancements to the educational environment. As one of Japan’s national centers for shared access to IT infrastructure, it also provides sophisticated computing services to researchers and other users at other universities and research institutions throughout Japan. Director of ACCMS, Professor Hiroshi Nakashima, PhD, described the center by saying, “Our two key roles are to provide IT infrastructure across Kyoto University and to conduct academic research into the building of advanced IT platforms for the future. In terms of joint research, we have an important mission as part of a network of eight computing centers at major national universities.” ACCMS is actively involved in joint research and other collaborations with both private-sector companies and research institutions, with research and development organized into five departments.
