The vendor session at EuroPVM/MPI has a long tradition of not being marketing-hype, but typically offer solid technical information and discussion on a vendor's products. For this reason, it is in fact not an annoyance, but a highlight of the conference.
Platinum Vendor Session Time: 18th Sep 2006, 17:30 - 17:50 Location: K1/K2

Christoper Gottbrath, Totalview Product Manager
Adapting parallel applications to multi-core processors often involves moving to program architectures that are both multi-process and multi-threaded. These hybrid applications, which incorporate both shared memory and message passing, are especially challenging to debug. This talk will describe how the parallel architecture and asynchronous thread control capabilities of the Total View debugger will help you quickly identify and resolve bugs in these otherwise challenging applications.

Dolphin: Take the Expressway
Dr. Werner Butscher
Werner will present the current state and the defined roadmap of
Dolphin's interconnect technology which provides low-latency,
high-bandwidth remote memory access and RDMA. Results from current
applications will illustrate the advantages of the current products. These advantages
will increase with the upcoming product DolphinExpress. DolphinExpress is a PCI-Express-based switching
interconnect, designed from scratch based on more than 10 years of
high-performance interconnect experience. It offers extremely low
latency and advanced RDMA features combined with full PCI-Express interoperability. slides of the presentation [PDF] | Sun: Sun and Open MPI: investing in innovation and the community
Leonard Wisniewski
After ten years of developing its own ClusterTools product, Sun recently
joined as an active member of the Open MPI open source team. Sun
believes in sharing innovation and growing communities and has a long
history of sharing from NFS in 1984 to Solaris and now Open MPI today.
In their first release as an Open MPI member, Sun has made a number of
contributions, including a plug-in to enable launching Open MPI jobs via
Sun N1 Grid Engine as well as investing resources in supporting the
quality and efficiency needed by a production-ready MPI implementation
such as Open MPI. Supported by a growing Open MPI community, an
impressive line of Sparc and x64 servers, its Solaris software stack,
and large successful customer installations such as Tokyo Institute of
Technology, Sun is committed as a major player in the HPC market.

Microsoft: Compute Cluster Server 2003
Dennis Crain, Microsoft HPC Program Manager
For
customers solving complex computational problems, Microsoft Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003
accelerates time-to-insight by providing a High-Performance Computing (HPC)
platform that is simple to deploy, operate, and integrate with existing
infrastructure and tools. Prescriptive setup procedures simplify network
configuration, remote loading of nodes using Remote Installation Services, node
configuration, and security setup. The integrated Job Scheduler can be
accessed via command-line interface, or through several API's is provided
for submitting and managing cluster workloads. The job console allows you
to manage jobs in much the same fashion that you queue and manage print jobs
today. Active Directory integration provides end-to-end user and security
management, while the Microsoft Management Console supports extensible snap-ins
and integration with Microsoft Operations Manager.
