  1. The New Era of Coprocessor in Supercomputing -并行计算中协处理应用的新时代- Marc XAB, M.A. - 桜美林大学大学院 Country Manager 5/07/2013 @ BAH! Oil & Gas - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Super Micro Computer Inc. RuaFunchal, 418. Sao Paulo – SP www.supermicro.com/brazil

  2. Networking in Rio

  3. Company Overview San Jose (Headquarter) Revenues: FY10 $721 M  FY11 $942 M FY12 $1B Global Footprint: >70 Countries, 700 customers, 6800 SKUs Production: US, EU and Asia Production facilities Engineering: 70% of workforce in engineering, SSI Member Market Share: #1 Server Channel Corporate Focus: Leader Energy Efficient, HPC & Application-Optimized Systems Fortune 2012 100 Fastest-Growing Companies Fremont Facility

  4. COPROCESSOR (协处理器) • A coprocessor is a computer processor used to supplement the functions of the primary processor (the CPU). • Operations performed by the coprocessor may be floating point arithmetic, graphics, signal processing, string processing, encryption or I/O Interfacing with peripheral devices. • Math coprocessor – a computer chip that handles the floating point operations and mathematical computations in a computer. • Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) – a separate card that handles graphics rendering and can improve performance in graphics intensive applications, like games. • Secure crypto-processor – a dedicated computer on a chip or microprocessor for carrying out cryptographic operations, embedded in a packaging with multiple physical security measures, which give it a degree of tamper resistance • Network coprocessor. 网络协处理器. • ……..

  5. The Trend Indicated on Green500

  6. Case Study – Submerged Liquid Cooling • Removed Fans and Heat Sinks • Use SSD & Updated BIOS • Reverse the handlers • Supermicro 1U (Single CPU) with two coprocessors • No requirement for room-level cooling • Operates at PUE ~ 1.12 • 25 kilowatts per rack – the breakpoint per rack (between regular air-cool and submerged cool) “Submerged Supermicro Servers Accelerated by GPUs” Cost Efficiency ~25kW Air cool Submerged liquid cool KW / rack
