[Back to top] Section 5: Future Architectures HPC architectures in the coming years are expected to rely heavily on processors that contain many, light-weight, low-power compute cores. This shift away from traditional "heavy-weight" processing units may require a fundamental change in the way you write your programs and run your jobs. Another trend in HPC is the growing importance of data. In this section, we are gathering information that we hope will help us help you transition to the many-core era and make sure we meet your data needs. Accelerators and Many-Core Have you used any of the following (anywhere, not just at NERSC)? Check all that apply. Technologies GPUs Intel Phi (MIC) IBM Cell Hardware Multi-Threading Programming Models OpenMP CUDA CUDA Fortran OpenCL OpenACC CAPS HMPP Coarray Fortran UPC Intel TBB Intel Cilk pthreads thrust other What are your plans for transitioning to a many-core archicture like GPUs or Intel Phi? How much of your code can use vector units or processors? [Back to top] How can NERSC help you make the transition to many-core? [Back to top] Data How important are each of the following to you?
