From 26 to 28 October, JSC organized the 2009 edition of its Blue Gene Scaling Workshop. This time, the main focus were application codes able to scale-up during the workshop to the full Blue Gene/P system JUGENE which consists of 72 racks with a total of 294,912 cores - the highest number of cores worldwide available in a single system.Interested application teams had to submit short proposals which were evaluated with respect to the required extreme scaling, application-related constraints which had to be fulfilled by the JUGENE software infrastructure and the scientific impact that the codes could produce. Surprisingly, not only a handful of proposals were submitted, as the organizers had expected, but ten high-quality applications could be selected, among them two 2009 Gordon Bell Prize finalists. This report summarizes the results achieved in the workshop. |
