MEUDON LA FORÊT, France, July 6 -- SILKAN, a major player in high performance simulation and embedded simulation, expands its presence in North America with a new office in Montreal. This reflects the continuous growth of the company.
Since its creation in 2007 (as HPC Project), SILKAN has developed several activities in Canada with customers as well as with partners. Presagis (CAE group) is one these key partners. Montreal was also chosen for its first rank in the field of simulation. Its international environment makes it an ideal choice as a gateway between Europe and North America.
SILKAN is addressing industries as defense, aeronautics, automotive and energy with simulation systems integration, numerical simulation solutions and embedded safety critical systems integration.
SILKAN is headquartered in Meudon la Forêt (Paris area, France), has offices in France, in the USA and now in Canada.

Computer memory is currently undergoing something of an identity crisis. For the past 8 years, multicore microprocessors have been creating a performance discontinuity, the so-called memory wall. It's now fairly clear that this widening gap between compute and memory performance will not be solved with conventional DRAM products. But there is one technology under development that aims to close that gap, and its first use case will likely be in the ethereal realm of supercomputing.

The latest Green500 rankings were announced last week, revealing that top performance and power efficiency can indeed go hand in hand. According to the latest list, the greenest machines, in fact the top 20 systems, were all IBM Blue Gene/Q supercomputers. Blue Gene/Q, of course, is the platform that captured the number one spot on the latest TOP500 list, and is represented by four of the ten fastest supercomputers in the world.

The US Department of Energy's National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) has ordered a two-petaflop "Cascade" supercomputer, Cray's next-generation HPC platform. The DOE is shelling out $40 million dollars for the system, including about 6.5 petabytes of the company's Sonexion storage. Installation is scheduled for sometime in 2013.

06/25/2012 | NetApp | A single hour of data collection can result in 7+ million files from just one camera. Collection opportunities are limited and must be successful every time. As defense and intelligence agencies seek to use the data collected to make mission-critical battlefield decisions, there’s greater emphasis on smart data and imagery collection, capture, storage and analysis to drive real-time intelligence. The data gathered must accurately and systematically be analyzed, integrated and disseminated to those who need it – troops on the ground. This reality leads to an inevitable challenge – warfighters swimming in sensors, drowning in data. With the millions, if not billions, of sensors providing all-seeing reports of the combat environment, managing the overload demands a file system and storage infrastructure that scales and performs while protecting the data collected. Part II of our whitepaper series highlights NetApp’s scalable, modular, and flexible storage solution to handle the demanding requirements of sophisticated ISR environments.
