High Performance Computing Trends, Supercomputers, Clusters and Grids

Abstract

In this talk we will look at how High Performance computing has changed over the last 10-year and look toward the future in terms of trends. In addition, we advocate the ’Computational Grids’ to support ’large-scale’ applications. These must provide transparent access to the complex mix of resources – computational, networking, and storage – that can be provided through aggregation of resources.
