Higher-Education & Research
Universities and Centers of Higher Learning have always understood the balance between classroom learning and the laboratory. As such, higher education and research often (but not always) go hand-in-hand. Whether it is a University or corporate or government researcher however, the focus is to work at the cutting edge of science to create breakthroughs in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, design, medicine, thermo- and aerodynamics and more.
The varied scope of the research activities usually requires complex IT requirements. Solutions based on vSMP Foundation are ideally suited to help address these requirements, which can range from running commercial off-the-shelf OpenMP and MPI applications to homegrown applications for unique workloads. vSMP Foundation solutions provide IT capabilities with reduced system management operational complexity, allowing the researchers to focus on the research instead of worrying about the IT infrastructure. These solutions provide the versatility of being able to run jobs that require a large memory footprint, compute intensive applications, or be used to run multiple small to medium simulations allowing scientists, engineers and researchers to dynamically adjust the mix of applications to changes in research priorities.
Solutions based on vSMP Foundation are ideal for multidisciplinary research to allow faculty, students and researchers to maximize application performance and research flexibility for single users, departments and computer datacenters.
