Description
Apple will be presenting his strategy and HW / SW solutions for High Performance Computing and server needs. The half day conference will address issues like:
- Apple's Open Source strategy,
- Tools for developers
- 64-bit technology (IBM G5 chip, both on desktop and server configurations),
- OS X details, its Unix foundations, and porting issues as well as distributing computing technology.
With the most affordable 64-bit technology and the new operating system - OS X - Apple is positioning itself as a very interesting partner in scientific and academic high performance computing tasks. The Virginia Tech fastest cluster in the world is but one of the many examples of it.
Organiser(s): co-organized by M. Marino(LBL), members of the LHC experiments and CERN/IT
