TEL AVIV, Israel, April 9 — IncrediBuild, the de facto standard in code build acceleration, now supports the NVIDIA CUDA compiler to make software code development even faster.
IncrediBuild accelerates code builds, code analyses, QA scripts and other development tools by up to 30 times. Reduced development time translates into hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.
"With the ever-increasing competition to deliver apps for all devices, faster time to market is a critical competitive edge," said Eyal Maor, CEO of IncrediBuild. "IncrediBuild support for the CUDA compiler leverages the performance-focused aspects of both technologies."
IncrediBuild allows you to shorten application development time and continuous integration processes for CUDA-based development. IncrediBuild splits processing among machines and CPU processor cores, maximizing use of every machine involved in compiling the application.
"We build our GPUs to handle the most complex, compute-intensive parallel processing requirements," said Ian Buck, general manager of GPU computing software at NVIDIA. "With IncrediBuild technology, CUDA developers can now easily take advantage of IncrediBuild to dramatically reduce the amount of time they spend developing GPU-accelerated applications."
IncrediBuild's on-demand virtualization technology enables any remote machine to participate in the CUDA compiler's tasks without any prior setup other than installing the IncrediBuild Agent software. When a build is running, the initiating machine's environment, applications and input files are all synchronized and virtualized on all agents contributing to the build, thereby eliminating the need to copy files and install the development environments or applications on remote machines.
"We take care of accelerating the compilation process so CUDA programmers can concentrate on what they do best: developing great software," concluded Maor.

Later this month, Indiana University will formally introduce the successor to the Big Red system, the aptly-named, Big Red II. The Cray-crafted and tuned system is 25 times faster than its baby brother (the 4100-core original Big Red from 2006) and sports some notable improvements across its 1,020 nodes. According to Thomas Sterling, there are theoretical lessons that can be applied to...

Despite the important advances that middleware enables in both the HPC and enterprise spheres, it generally fails to elicit the same excitement as, say, brand-new leadership class hardware. But middleware, such as Adaptive Computing's intelligent management engine, Moab, is cool and you don't have to take Adaptive's word for it. During the company's annual user event last week, Gartner gave Adaptive its "Cool Vendor" stamp of approval.

04/09/2013 | IBM, Omnibond, Xyratex | In today's era of data-intensive computing, the big data phenomenon has grown far beyond a trend, it's become a critical top-line business issue that organizations must tackle in order to remain competitive. With the emergence of the next generation of tools for managing, storing, and analyzing data flooding the IT marketplace, deciding on the best data management solution to drive your business' requirements can be overwhelming.
The Cray CS300-AC cluster supercomputer offers energy efficient, air-cooled design based on modular, industry-standard platforms featuring the latest processor and network technologies and a wide range of datacenter cooling requirements.
CFD models of 100 million+ cells are increasingly common. Models of a billion+ cells are emerging. To meet demand for 10 to 100x larger models, the simulations will have to scale to 10 to 100x more cores. Both compute environment capabilities and capacity must be enhanced. Learn how Cray and ANSYS are scaling production models to 1000s of cores and providing the compute environment to take CFD simulations to the next level of extreme fidelity.
