Supercomputer systems
(SS)

 

 

Supercomputers represent the leading edge in high performance computer technology. This course describes all elements in the system architecture of a supercomputer, beginning from the processor and memory subsystem, through the interconnection network and distributed memory clusters, to distributed calculations and cloud computing, including options for enclosure and cooling infrastructures of supercomputers. It also discusses the system software stack, the cluster management and monitoring software, and high performance parallel applications running on supercomputers.
