Replicating our success from SC’08, the HPC Advisory Council has joined the ISCnet team at the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC’09) to showcase and demonstrate a large 40Gb/s InfiniBand eco-system, connecting multiple booths on the showfloor. Several members are providing the needed resources to support this activity (providing hardware, software and a 3D visualization demo for this network).

Please check it out and I hope that you will be able to take part in this demonstration. Please let me know if you have additional questions.Semi-annual meeting: We are also looking into possibilities of holding a HPC Advisory Council Member meeting during ISC’09. During the meeting we will meet and greet the council members, review the council activities (application expertise and HPC outreach) and review our plan for this year’s activities and goals. Please let us know if you or your group will be attending the show, and if you would be interested in attending by sending an email to hpc@mellanox.com.
