Learn how Star-P allows you to build, optimize and run parallel programs using MATLAB and Python on your SGI system! Interactive Supercomputing will share insights on how to eliminate the time and costs associated with migrating Very High Level Language (VHLL) code and applications to low-level languages like C and Fortran and eliminate the need to know the details of parallel programming with paradigms like the Message Passing Interface (MPI) or OpenMP.

SGI ProPack 6 is the next generation of SGI's suite of performance optimization libraries and tools that accelerate applications on SGI's Linux systems. SGI ProPack 6 supports Novell® SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP 2 and Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® 5.2 for SGI Altix. SGI Altix XE, and SGI Altix ICE systems. SGI Foundation Software 1 consists of technical support tools and utilities that enable SGI Altix, SGI Altix XE, and SGI Altix ICE systems to run reliably and consistently.

Listen as Leslie Tung, Product Manager, describes the features, functions and technology behind these Developer tools.

Never before has the industry clamored for tools to debug large Parallel environments as they do today. Customers have more cores and processors. Software tools required to "Tap the Power" lag far behind the hardware capabilities. Customers want to leverage the standardization of Open Source. Developers need easier tools to remove the complexity from parallel application development. Everyone needs Affordable, Scalable, Minimal Learning, Easy of Use Tools - Allinea DDT and OPT.

Perfsuite is a collection of tools, utilities and library for performance analysis. developed by NCSA. It allows statistical "Itimer" profiling as well as counter overflow profiling and Performance counter ("Perfex like") reports. It works with OpenMP and any MPI libraries. It has been enhanced by SGI to fit the SGI special X86_64 systems usages (Callstack profiling, low memory overhead...). It is very simple to install and very easy to use. This presentation aims to be sufficient for immediate use of the tool.

Learn how Parallels Virtuozzo Containers can provide virtualization for production level applications which are running performance sensitive workloads. In partnership with SGI enterprise Systems and Services, Parallels offers unique technology which can help customers achieve both application and database consolidation (such as Oracle) without the performance penalty required by traditional hypervisor-based approaches.

In this Webcast, Joachim Redmer and Mike Ullrich from ontoprise GmbH, Germany give an introduction into semantics and a motivation of semantic business analytics, the next generation of BI. This will be demonstrated with examples from customer projects. Finally the results of the benchmark testing on Altix 4700 will be shown to prove the scalability of the technology.

Ontoprise is the leading provider of industry-proven SemanticWeb infrastructure technologies and products used to support dynamic semantic business analytics and information management at the enterprise level. At the core of the ontoprise platform are the OntoBroker and OntoStudio middleware products. These products incorporate highly efficient inference engines, as well as a modelling environment for the development of ontologies. Enterprises are increasingly challenged to effectively access and integrate a growing amount of information that often resides within disparate systems, while business conditions dictate more rapid analysis and decision making based on this same information.

Learn about ontoprise's enterprise-proven and patented technology that provides a mature and very flexible platform for ontology-based applications that can support all relevant ontology and rules standards and be effectively operated by non-technical users.

The Intel Performance Tuning Utility (Intel PTU) is a powerful, cross-platform performance analysis tool set. It offers a low-overhead statistical call graph, and other traditional features such as identification of the hottest modules and functions of an application, tracking of call sequences and identification of performance-critical source code. Intel PTU also has new, more powerful data collection, analysis, and visualization capabilities. Come join Arthur Raefsky of SGI to learn about the architecture, installation and how to effectively use this tool on SGI servers.

MOAB is a suite of software products from Cluster Resources Inc. that offers intelligent scheduling capabilities for SGI?s range of products (NUMA, cluster, RASC, GPU). It extends the capabilities of resource managers such as Torque, SGE, or PBSpro. Join us for this technical webcast to learn more about the product and how you can more efficiently run your applications.
