NASA to fire up SGI supercomputer

Silicon Graphics News

20,480-core Altix ICE system capable of 245 trillion operations per second

NASA has chosen SGI to supply its next major supercomputer after a competitive evaluation launched last year.

The 20,480-core Altix ICE system will be installed this summer in NASA’s Advanced Supercomputing facility at the Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley. The supercomputer will be capable of 245 trillion operations per second, and presents new opportunities for scientists and engineers attempting to tackle some of the largest and most complex problems in history.

NASA’s plan to resume manned missions to the Moon and eventually Mars is one of the chief reasons for securing a powerful computing resource. In addition to space exploration, the SGI supercomputer will support NASA’s aeronautics, science and space operations initiatives.

Powered by quad-core Intel Xeon processors, the supercomputer will feature more than 20,800Gb of system memory, roughly equal to 10,000 desktop PCs. NASA will also deploy a next-generation InfiniteStorage InfiniBand disk platform capable of storing and managing 450TB of data, an amount five times larger than the entire print collection of the Library of Congress.

SGI Technology Powers University of Hawaii’s Papaya Genome Sequencing Project

Silicon Graphics News

BOSTON, April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — BIO-IT WORLD CONFERENCE AND EXPO 2008, Booth #306/308 — An International Papaya Genome Consortium led by University of Hawaii (UH) researchers has completed the Papaya Genome Sequencing Project and, from the start, researchers relied on technology from SGI (Nasdaq: SGIC) to provide the processing power and speed required to run the assemblies. The papaya genome was sequenced using a whole genome shotgun approach running on the combination of an SGI(R) Altix(R) system, SGI(R) InfiniteStorage and Qube! scheduling software from PipelineFX(R). It has taken two years to construct the physical map and to sequence the 372 million base pairs. The disease-resistant “SunUp” papaya is now the first fruit — and the first transgenic crop — to be sequenced, helping to pave the way for international export of genetically modified fruits and vegetables.
