IBM-BSC - About us

The IBM-BSC Future of Computing Center is a joint effort between IBM and BSC providing a framework for conducting joint research and development projects, as well as around efforts to deploy technology developed in the prior Collaboration Agreements as solutions for the community.

 
This collaboration is developing new vector computer architectures, which will allow hardware to exploit semantics for a broad set of applications. This will be achieved by propagating semantic information from application to architecture and then rightsizing as well as re-tuning the hardware to match application needs.
 
This will result in dynamic software/hardware co-optimization for future High Performance Computing (HPC) and High Performance Data Analytics (HPDA) systems, going beyond current co-design approaches. This collaboration will revolutionize the way HPC architectures are designed by proposing a new malleable vector architecture.
 
The results of this collaboration will break the chains that prevent the optimal use of computer architectures and will dramatically improve system performance and energy efficiency when executing HPC and HPDA workloads.
