Multiprocessing system suits extreme environments
The conduction-cooled 800MHz 7447A 6U VME Multicomputer is billed as the most powerful commercial off-the-shelf multiprocessing system available today for deployment in extreme environments.
A diverse range of organisations, including the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the Software Integration and Visualisation Office at the NASA Goddard Space Flight centre, have purchased Mercury Cell BE processor-based hardware, software, and/or optimisation services.
Mercury customers and partners are leveraging the performance capabilities of the Cell BE processor to solve various specialised application challenges in seismic computation, video processing, semiconductor inspection, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), molecular modelling in biotech, and ray tracing.
Some of these applications will be demonstrated at Supercomputing 2006, as well as the latest release of amira, Mercury's multifaceted 3D software tool that enables integration, manipulation, and visualisation of large-volume data sets in medicine, geosciences, life sciences and engineering applications.
