Sino-German Workshop on “Cloud-based High Performance Computing”

The bilateral workshop will bring together the researchers from known research institutions in both Germany and China to deeply discuss the theme “HPC and Cloud Computing”.

As development and extension of High Performance Computing (HPC), Cloud Computing has been widely accepted shortly after being proposed. It has been recognized that Cloud Computing has completely changed the traditional way how IT is being used. To a certain extent, the significant performance on computing and storage makes Cloud Computing much more powerful than all existing supercomputing systems. Therefore, many researchers in the area of HPC become excited and meanwhile confused. Some researchers have claimed that Cloud Computing is the terminator of HPC, which means it could be a necessity that the more powerful Cloud Computing will completely replace HPC. However, there are also many other opinions which believe that HPC will not come to the end. One of the arguments is that the applications of Cloud Computing are completely different from traditional HPC applications. Then, what is indeed the relationship between Cloud Computing and HPC? This is exactly the issue which we expect to deeply discuss on this workshop.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
