LANL’s EMC3 Consortium enjoys rapid growth in its first year https://insidehpc.com/2020/01/lanls-emc3-consortium-enjoys-rapid-growth-in-its-first-year/ Tue, 28 Jan 2020 16:27:01 +0000 https://insidehpc.com/?p=82412

Just over a year after Los Alamos National Laboratory launched the Efficient Mission Centric Computing Consortium (EMC3), 15 companies, universities and federal organizations are now working together to explore new ways to make extreme-scale computers more efficient. "In the first year of EMC3 we have already seen efficiency improvements to HPC in a number of areas, including the world's first NVMe-based hardware-accelerated compressed parallel filesystem, in-situ analysis enabled on network adapters for a real simulation code, identifying issues with file system metadata performance in the Linux Kernel, record-setting in situ simulation output indexing, demonstrating file-system metadata indexing, and more."
