Introduction: Logistics
We have a very tight agenda (as usual)
 Please help us keep on time!
Review Agenda Times:
 Please take advantage of breaks and free
time to network with attendees
 Note: We will post most of the
presentations on the web site
HPC User Forum Mission
To improve the health of the highperformance computing industry
through open discussions, informationsharing and initiatives involving HPC
users in industry, government and
academia, along with HPC vendors and
other interested parties.
HPC User Forum Goals
Assist HPC users in solving their ongoing computing,
technical and business problems
Provide a forum for exchanging information, identifying
areas of common interest, and developing unified positions
on requirements

By working with users in other sectors and vendors
 To help direct and push vendors to build better products
 Which should also help vendors become more successful
Provide members with a continual supply of information on:

Uses of high end computers, new technologies, high end
best practices, market dynamics, computer systems and
tools, benchmark results, vendor activities and strategies
Provide members with a channel to present their
achievements and requirements to interested parties

Other
11%
Dell

HP
30%
IBM
43%
Notes:
• Includes product sales that are not reported by OEMs as product revenue in a given quarter
 Sometimes HPC systems are paid for across a number of quarters or even years
• Includes NRE – if required for a specific system
• Includes custom engineering sales
• Some examples – Earth Simulator, ASCI Red, ASCI Red Storm, DARPA systems, and many small
and medium HPC systems that are sold through a custom engineering or services group
because that need extra things added

Areas Of HPC “Uplift” Revenues
Notes:
3
* Computer hardware (in cabinet) -- hybrid nodes, service nodes,
accelerators, GPGPUs, FPGAs, internal interconnects, in-built
disks, in-built switches, special cabinet doors, special signal
processing parts, etc.
* External interconnects -- switches, cables, extra cabinets to hold
them, etc.
* External storage -- scratch disks, interconnects to them, cabinets to
hold them, etc. (This excludes user file storage devices)
* Software -- includes both bundled and separately charged software
if sold by the OEM, or on the purchase contract -- includes the
operating system, license fees, the entire middleware stack,
compilers, job schedules, etc. (it excludes all ISV applications
unless sold by the OEM and in the purchase contract)
* Bundled warranties
* Misc. items -- Since the HPC taxonomy includes everything
required to turn on the system and make it operational, items like
bundled installation services, special features and other add-on
hardware, and even a special paint job if required
