Parallel computing
IBM's ZRL has developed over the years a deep and broad competence in the field
of parallel and distributed computing. Our internal work on scientific
and technical computing is used as a test bed and driver for innovative parallel
alghorithms and implementations on diverse computer hardware ranging from general-use
high-end supercomputers (p-Series clusters) and Linux clusters (x-Series) to novel
computer architectures such as BlueGene-L.
Our key competencies are:
| • |
distributed memory parallelization using MPI, |
| • |
shared memory parallelization using OpenMP and direct threading, |
| • |
mixed MPI/SMP schemes. |

Blue Gene/L is a new member
of the new IBM Blue Gene family of supercomputers. It was designed jointly by
IBM and Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory (LLNL) of the National
Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA). The Haifa team is directly responsible for
job scheduling and partition allocation and is involved in the design of the
management components.
