HPC Development

High Performance Computers Based On GPUs

In recent years, graphic cards have become increasingly more applicable as general purpose high-performance devices. However, they are also being used for non-graphical applications such as scientific simulations. Computers with these specific graphic cards (GPUs) are used for supercomputers, such as the current second-fastest computer "Nebulae".

An important advancement from the company, NVIDIA, the leader in graphic cards, was announced at the 2009 GPU Technology Conference in San Jose: Their new product line, "Fermi" has Error-Correcting Code memory (ECC RAM) and is able to correct single bit errors automatically.

This is an important prerequisite for the use of graphic cards in business applications. ECC capability is mandatory for many companies for the use of IT hardware.

High-performance computing based on GPUs is used for the following:

  • web traffic analysis
  • customer profiling
  • bio-computer science
  • mathematical finance
  • image processing and pattern recognition
  • sorting and filtering
