CloudStars is an Open Source Research Mobility network in the field of Cloud Computing technology. The proposal combines twelve academic institutions in seven European countries (Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Poland, Switzerland), two academic institutions in third-party countries (Ecuador, Argentina), and three industrial laboratories from IBM (USA,...

One of the main drivers for building exascale HPC systems today is the growing need to process extremely large data sets. However, the flat storage hierarchies found in classic HPC architectures no longer satisfy the performance requirements of data-processing applications. Uncoordinated file access in combination with limited bandwidth make the centralised backend parallel...

The overall objective of the Next Generation I/O Project (NEXTGenIO) is to design and prototype a new, scalable, high-performance, energy efficient computing platform designed to address the challenge of delivering scalable I/O performance to applications at the Exascale. It will achieve this using highly innovative, non-volatile, dual in-line memory modules (NV-DIMMs). These...
