In this video from SC17, Bruce Tulloch from BitScope describes a low-cost Raspberry Pi cluster that LANL can use to simulate large-scale supercomputers. “The BitScope Pi Cluster Modules system creates ...

Supercomputers are typically huge and expensive, and they take an awful lot of power to run. Looking for a cheaper way allow developers to build and test high performance computer system software, the ...

Scalable modules give developers a powerful high-performance- testbed to check supercomputer software Software developers who write (or want to write) software for supercomputers just got a huge ...

A quest to help the systems software community work on very large supercomputers without having to actually test on them has spawned an affordable, scalable system using thousands of inexpensive ...

Developers requiring a platform to test their scalable software for supercomputers now have an inexpensive solution. Designed and built by BitScope in collaboration with the Department of Energy’s Los ...

Creating Raspberry Pi clusters is a popular hacker activity. Bitscope has been commercializing these clusters for a bit now and last year they created a cluster of 750 Pis for Los Alamos National Labs ...

Let’s say you’re a systems-software developer working on a program for a large supercomputer without access to one to actually test it on; what would you do? The High Performance Computing (HPC) ...

The Los Alamos National Lab (LANL) has installed a supercomputer testbed built from a cluster of 750 Raspberry Pis, which could grow to 10,000 Pi boards next year. A huge cluster of cool-running ...

LOS ALAMOS, N.M., November 13, 2017--A quest to help the systems software community work on very large supercomputers without having to actually test on them has spawned an affordable, scalable system ...
