“The initiative announced today is an example of exactly what is needed to give HPC customers the continued increase in performance they have come to expect from HP and AMD, who have been working closely together in yet another critically important area. As the industry is moving toward multi-core systems, AMD has applied its customer-centric innovation to its upcoming Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processors, codenamed ‘Barcelona,’ which are expected to deliver significant value to customers in the form of superior performance, performance-per-watt and virtualization capabilities.” -- David Rich, Director of HPC marketing, AMD
“More than a million Intel quad-core chips are now in customer’s hands, driving the rapid deployment of advances in multi-core application optimization. This joint industry effort combined with Intel’s 45nm technology, Intel threading tools and the cluster toolkit will only quicken the pace, resulting in more scientific discoveries and engineering endeavors across an expanding HPC market segment!” -- Dr. Stephen Wheat, HPC Director, Intel
"TotalView Technologies and HP have had a long-term relationship supporting HPC applications developers get their products to market more quickly with higher quality. This collaboration will help us jointly enable our mutual customers to achieve the promise of multi-core performance in HPC." -- Jim Chafel, VP of Business Development, TotalView Technologies
“Our customers are demanding performance beyond what current processor technology alone can deliver. Given the rapid uptake in multi-core technology, Accelrys is increasing its efforts to optimize our high performance computing applications for these systems. Partnering with HP’s Multi-Core Optimization Program dovetails nicely into our existing HPC strategy to provide accelerated solutions for our customers.” -- Keith Glassford, Vice-President Materials Science Marketing, Accelrys, Inc.
