SC07 Update

SC07, the ACM/IEE-sponsored International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis, runs from November 10th, that's tomorrow, through the 16th at the Reno-Sparks Convention Center. Here are some of the companies and products I know of that will be appearing at SC07.

Calgary-based Acceleware will be showing off their Accelerator Board and ClusterInABox Workstation solutions at the NVIDIA booth; tools they claim put supercomputing capabilities on the desktop.

IBM will host an invitation-only event to meet and chat with HPC execs from the company, like Michael Henesey, the Vice President of IBM's Deep Computing. Tony Belfi will speak on 'Innovation Beyond Imagination: The Road to Petaflops Computing,' and IBM will also do demos related to Blue Gene/P.

Cray will be there with news of launch of the Cray XT5 family of supercomputers, including the industry’s first integrated hybrid supercomputer.

Infinera (INFN), one of the companies behind Internet2's high-speed network for the
scientific community, will be making three announcements at the show.

NASA will be there, talking about their climate work in addition to the obvious space stuff. The DOE will be there.

Interactive Supercomputing will announce a new version of their parallel computing platform, Star-P, around the show.

Dell will be talking up their cluster and cloud computing initatives.

A new book that sounds pretty interesting, Petascale Computing: Algorithms and Applications, edited by David A. Bader, will be released at the show.
