Welcome to the SGI Resource Center. Be sure to visit often for complimentary resources focused on keeping you abreast of the latest trends and tools in your field. Here you will learn about solutions that allow you to enjoy the combined productivity of desktop tools with the power of high performance computing. This new paradigm for technical application development enables scientists, engineers and analysts to use familiar desktop tools to solve larger and more complex problems - resulting in shorter time to insight.

This case study examines how MATLAB users can accelerate the interactive solution of problems that exceed the capability of desktop systems. Learn how the combination of Star-P with SGI Altix systems increases problem size and accelerates time to solution by up to 100x for environmental science, medical, imaging and defense applications.

Today's SGI Altix technology makes it possible to build systems with very large global shared memories, scaling to 512 processors in a single instance of Linux with shared memory up to 6 TB. Such systems enable full datasets and complete system simulations to be resident in memory and thus avoid the show-stopping problems of the  

Performance and Productivity Breakthroughs Enabled by Globally Shared Memory
Today's SGI Altix technology makes it possible to build systems with very large global shared memories, scaling to 512 processors in a single instance of Linux with shared memory up to 6 TB. Such systems enable full datasets and complete system simulations to be resident in memory and thus avoid the show-stopping problems of the "I/O wall." This paper describes the value of these systems as demonstrated in both system-level metrics as well as a broad range of applications, such as database, bioinformatics, crash and structural analysis, chemistry, reservoir simulation and others.

Discover the story behind the industry's leading system interconnect - SGI NUMAlink technology. This technology, which debuted in SGI® Origin™ servers, has evolved to today's NUMAlink 4 on SGI Altix machines. SGI NUMAlink interconnect not only offers the highest bandwidth and the lowest latency of anything on the market today, it also enables globally shared memory and single system image across up to 512 processors.
