| AMD Athlon Processors Power University of Delaware SupercomputerSUNNYVALE, CA, AMD today announced that the University of Delaware's Bartol Research Institute (BRI) has installed a supercomputer powered by AMD Athlon™ processors. Racksaver's "Samson" supercomputer, a Beowulf Cluster design that uses 128 AMD Athlon processors, was purchased through a $500,000 Major Research Infrastructure (MRI) grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF)."We are excited that the 'Samson' supercomputer is showcasing the AMD Athlon processor," said Pat Moorhead, Vice President of Marketing of AMD's Computation Products Group. "This demonstrates another step in AMD's continuing plan to expand into the high-performance server and workstation markets. At the same time, both the academic and private sectors are evaluating AMD Athlon processor-based supercomputers for use in the highest areas of the scientific workplace." "The new parallel cluster supercomputer will solidify the University of Delaware's position as a leader in new technology, providing important computing power for UD researchers and students in physics, engineering and computer sciences," said Melvyn D. Schiavelli, Provost, University of Delaware. "It will provide an unparalleled learning experience for all concerned, and fits well with the University's commitment to teaching, research and technology. "The University recognizes the value of such cluster supercomputers, which provide exceptional computational power and speed, and is proud to stand at the leading edge of this emerging technology. The University is grateful for the support of the National Science Foundation, RackSaver, Dolphin Interconnect, and AMD in this endeavor," Schiavelli added. "The design of the 'Samson' supercomputer using AMD Athlon processors reflects the economic changes in supercomputing," said David Driggers, President and CEO of Racksaver (www.racksaver.com). "Racksaver specializes in using existing, advanced technology to design flexible, yet powerful systems that can fit into specific space limitations. The 'Samson' supercomputer with AMD Athlon processors fulfills both the space and performance needs of the University of Delaware." To match the speed of the AMD Athlon processor power, the system also employs 1GB bandwidth between nodes using Dolphin Interconnect's SCI (Scaleable Coherent Interface) Wulfkit, offering an efficient combination of fast network hardware and corresponding software. "The combination of AMD's 1GHz AMD Athlon processors and our high performance Wulfkit Interconnect offers our users the scalability and performance they require for this generation of supercomputers," says Pat Darden, CEO at Dolphin Interconnect. The award-winning AMD Athlon processor is already employed in several supercomputers used for scientific research in both the academic and private sectors, including systems used in universities such as the University of Kentucky and the University of Utah, and in companies such as GeoCenter and MSC.Software. Racksaver's 'Samson' supercomputer using AMD Athlon processors is expected to rank within the top 200 of the fastest supercomputers in the world based on the Top500 supercomputer list (http://www.top500.org/index.html), but should move to a higher ranking upon the addition of updated Linux compilers. UD officials are expected to conduct industry standard benchmarks over the next several months, including single processor benchmarks such as SpecINT and SpecFP, and the Stream memory bandwidth test. + Post comment/question/reply AMD Mobile Athlon 64 3400+ highest performing processor for Windows notebook PCs e tablet PC.” “A growing percentage of PC consumers are demanding high-performance notebooks to help them stay connected on the go,” said Matt Sargent, analyst for the research firm Current Ana AMD Athlon MP processor 2800+ Socket A multiprocessing world’s most prestigious universities use AMD Athlon MP processors in superclusters for compute-intensive research applications.
