Mickey Leland research associate Diana Alvarado working in the lab with mentor Biswanath Dutta. Diana is working on the Reaction Engineering Team at NETL studying Synthesis and Characterization of high-energy-surface structures/facets for alkane dehydrogenation reactions. In this research, Diana will learn how to conduct database searching and how to use NETL supercomputer Joule 2.0 to perform density functional theory (DFT) calculations and lattice phonon dynamics simulation with existing software packages (VASP, PhonoPy, etc.). This project is directly related to our research tasks of the on-going NETL Carbon Capture FWP on developing CO2 capture & utilization technologies for fighting global warming.
The service area behind Hopper, a supercomputer housed at NERSC, forms a narrow tunnel. Here one of the attendees in my group is walking through it. The painted racks are on the right - I think the racks on the left also belong to Hopper.
NSF MSGI research associate Arthur Mills and his mentor Wu Zhang outside of the JOULE supercomputer at NETL in Morgantown, WV. Arthur is studying Description of 3D Configuration. This project develops mathematics description of objects. Equations, and Matlab code will be needed to construct image of object in 3D space. There are several such problems in NETL’s research challenge list. The researcher of this project will be asked to work on one or more of them based on their own interests and background. One group of problems comes from the need to supply 3D printer an algorithm and/code with which an object can be manufactured through 3D printing. One of the objects would be a screw, and the other would be a hollow circular tube with arms at three different locations with each orientated differently around the tube. The other group of problem is represented by the image of a long rod in a curved tube. This is a simulation of the bending status of drill string in directional well, as commonly occurred in drilling an oil and gas well. The validation of the mathematic description of the object is expected to be conducted by providing 3D imaging of the objects with a series of cross section images staking over one and another. If time allow, the objects will be made to perform certain motion. For example, the motion can be rotating the screw or moving the rod downward simulating the drilling progress.

Fummi and Arinze from Nigeria after our Cultural Orientation dinner. Arinze would like people to know that "One in five black people is a Nigerian. People believe Nigerians are very enterprising, maybe that's why the supercomputer "deep blue" that beat the worlds greatest chess grandmaster Kasparov was designed by a Nigerian: Philip Emeagwali."

The Universidad de la Frontera (UFRO) began operating a new high performance computing equipment with scientific capability. Its installation is part of the National Laboratory for High Performance Computing (NLHPC) project, lead by the Center for Mathematical Modeling of the University of Chile, with support and funding from the Associative Investigation Program (PIA) of CONICYT.

Through years of steady investment and research, high performance computing in Europe has started paying returns to many parts of the economy - aerospace, pharmaceuticals, energy, automotive, the environment and climate research. But the best could be yet to come, as computing powers worldwide jump upwards and HPC becomes an essential tool for competitiveness across the European economy. In short, supercomputers will be for all, no longer a few.

The companies in this year’s class represent the ever-growing and diversifying entrepreneurial ecosystem. Our companies come from all over the country and bring unique skills, background and expertise to Boulder this summer. While individually different, they are all fueled by an unquenchable desire to improve the world by solving big problems.
This year’s class includes companies that are focused on helping brides get the dress they dream of (while staying within their budget) to enabling any child to make music to wearables that notify a loved one if you feel unsafe to helping home buyers/sellers save money and many more. These 10 companies stood out for their drive and passion to do something great and it’s a true honor and privilege to work with them.
We’re very excited to introduce the Techstars Boulder 2015 class:
adHawk: A mobile app that provides a bird’s eye view of all your digital marketing data in one place.
Blazing DB: An SQL database at supercomputer speeds that’s incredibly easy to use.
Edify: Empower every kid in the world to make their own music.
Flytedesk: A platform for buying and selling uncollected media, starting with college newspapers.
HobbyDB: The definitive database for collectors and hobbyists to manage and monetize their collections.
MadKudu: Data science that helps sales and support teams fight customer churn.
Revolar: The world’s smartest personal safety wearable device keeps you safe anytime, anywhere.
Stryd: The world’s first running power meter that helps runners improve their performance.
TRELORA: A commission-free real estate company, replacing percentage-based commissions with one flat fee.

This is me, in 1986. This system was soon replaced by the XMP.

This is btw the fastest supercomputer in the Netherlands and one of the fastest (Nr. 51 in the top 500) in the world... This is a 12,288(!) core system. The previous Blue Gene/L was #68 (and ranked much higher earlier on), but it's been replaced only a couple of weeks ago with a Blue Gene/P, in other words, it's even quicker!
for some undisclosed appointment(^_^), i visited the High Performance Computing & Visualization Centre (HPC/V) this afternoon. And of course I took some pics!
(we were in a little bit of a rush, so quite some of these pics are a little shaky because my camera still was on iso 50...)
(i visited this very same centre more than five years ago too....)

ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, Md. (Oct. 16, 2015) -- The U.S. Army introduced its newest supercomputer, Excalibur, which will help to ensure Soldiers have the technological advantage on the battlefield, officials said.
The Excalibur is the 19th most powerful computer in the world. About 50 officials gathered for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory Department of Defense Supercomputing Resource Center.

This glass shape has a waxing and waning glow that is both organic and spooky. It's connected to a supercomputer at a cosmic particle research facility in Japan, and the colors change according to the type of particle matter arriving from outer space... The low but wide pedestal forces spectators to look at it from the perimeter of the darkened room, giving a very calm and spiritual quality to the experience of viewing this work.
Each cabinet has three subracks, and each subrack has 16 blades. Each blade has either four nodes (compute) or two nodes (service, IO, etc)
From auto dealership, to Doppler supercomputers to AMG Motors/Sportsmart, this building finally bit the dust when "The Rise" development was created (Save-on Foods, Home Depot and Winners all-in-one), with rental apartments on top. Prior to this building was Standard Milk at the corner of Yukon and 8th .
Anyone know what the face of Cambie looked like prior to this?
City of Vancouver Archives seems to suggest that an amazing Art Deco building existed here "Nelsons Laundry" between the 1930's and 40's:
