In the DEEPprojects, we organize heterogeneity in the unique Cluster-Booster architecture, which combines a cluster of general purpose Intel Xeon processors with a cluster of many-core Intel Xeon Phi processors.
What makes our project so unique is the stringent co-design approach which we apply in our prototyping effort. Co-design is done on all possible levels in DEEP-ER:
- hardware – software
- software – software
- software – applications
- hardware – applications
This way, our 14 partners from academia and industry manage to develop a highly innovative prototype system integrating on top of the hardware innovative I/O and resiliency functions, and preparing application codes to profit from the system, e.g. by exploiting network attached memory devices.
In the HPCwire Readers’ Choice Award, we are running for Best HPC Collaboration Between Academia & Industry.
