Then maybe you should attend the Free Tutorial: Tutorial on High Performance Computing with CUDA™ sponsored by NVIDIA® on June 16 (the day before the International Supercomputing Conference). Conveniently held at the Convention Center Dresden, Germany Monday, June 16, 2008 from 9:00am to 5:00pm. Learn about its advanced uses in science and engineering, and hear case studies from academic and industrial researchers. You need to register in advance. The tutorial is free of charge.

Note: This event is being held before ISC begins and as such is not affiliated with the ISC conference. Attendees do not need to register for the conference.

When was the last time you had 72 processors at your disposal to create your killer app! For more information, see the NYCA-HUG page. The is meeting will

As the Head Monkey around here, I often get questions sent to me about clusters. I thought it might make sense to share some of the questions (and answers). Please feel free to comment and offer your insights as well. Here is today's question.

Question: I am having trouble finding current information on hyper-threading and clusters, or even hyper-threading and heavy loads that is not at least 2 years out of date. I am about to overhaul our engineering cluster and would really like to find some information on the current state of things before I enable the HT ability on the cluster. Read on for my answer.

By the way, I'm open to other questions as well. Head on over to my contact page and drop me line. I'll also try an reach out to some of the more seasoned cluster jocks for answers as well. And finally, you can always post and search the adept Beowulf Mailing List. Oh, and try and keep the questions about HPC clusters.
