Abstract

High Performance Computing (HPC) centers represent some of the most advanced and concentrated computing resources in existence. These centers play a critical role in advancing research and innovation by providing specialized software and hardware not commonly found elsewhere. This talk will give an overview of HPC centers, how their resources are used by research communities including CERN, and current efforts towards incorporating and facilitating HPC centers and the resources they provide into HEP workflows and big data sciences.

Bio

David Southwick is a Computing Engineer at CERN Openlab. During the past decade he has worked in the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in areas of detector design, upgrades, and data acquisition systems. Currently he leads several efforts on the advancement of HPC computing for fundamental and Big Data sciences focused on the topics of data transmission and heterogeneous compute resources on the path to Exascale .
