SC06, is the premier international conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis
We landed at Tampa International Airport on 13th Nov. 2006 and headed for the largest Supercomputer conference in the world, SC-06 on the 14th. The doors to the SC|06 exhibition here in Tampa were opened on the 13th and we focused on evaluating latest HPC, networking, storage and analysis technologies on display. We have already met a couple of old-timers from the SGI/Cray supercomputer days in the 90's. These shows are part "homecomings" for many of us who've been in the scientific/technical computing world most of our lives.
We took a quick tour around the floor, and it's overwhelming as usual. As always, the most interesting booths are those from the national laboratories and universities showing their latest research projects in computational science. The exhibition is on a massive scale.
There is some cool technology on display such as linux supercomputing and visualization solutions from LNXI, FPGA computing solutions from Nallatech, personal supercomputing from Tyan, high resolution and 3D stereo visualization fron Cyviz, innovative cluster computer systems optimized from the silicon up from SiCortex.
