The main idea of the project is greater appliance of mathematical methods in scientific and applied fields by means of maximum approaching of high-performance computing to the consumers.

About the Project

The project production is a high-performance hybrid computer system(HCS) based on reasonably priced public available video processors that can function as a central computer complex and/or multiple-access computing system, as well as integrate into global scientific computing networks, particularly on GRID technology. Besides it is planned to design software and hardware systems on its base, and to create joint research projects.

The complex has to comprise a number of optimized libraries of calculating functions that can solve a wide range of common problems of numerical mathematics. User interface should be clear for a non-programmer due to generally accepted visual presentation and terminology.

The planned project result is a serial production of reasonably priced small-size computing complexes with a productivity rate of 10-50 TFLOPS, and supply of users like scientific research and engineering enterprises. Completing the computing systems with software tools facilitating and improving the efficiency of such systems will make them competitive both inside and outside Russian boarders. Domestic electronic engineering enterprises can also take part in manufacturing of special components and in series assembly organizing. Moreover fulfillment of ordered projects on special software complexes working out is possible.

Large-scale implementation of the computer complexes will allow to open access to the sophisticated mathematical modeling in solving different scientific and engineering problems (and to improve the results quality and to raise domestic researchers and manufacturers competitiveness ), particularly in the branches where mass mathematical modeling and computing experiments application were previously limited because there was no adequate and acceptable instrument (in price and in user interface availability).

Academic and research institutes and industrial enterprises that need reasonable high-performance computing resources to solve sophisticated mathematical modeling problems and with no opportunity to use traditional supercomputers can become first users of the system.
