The Modular Supercomputing Architecture (MSA)

Estela Suarez, Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC)

Abstract: Prof. Dr. Estela Suarez The Modular Supercomputing Architecture (MSA) is a system design that orchestrates heterogeneous computer resources (CPUs, GPUs, many-core accelerators, disruptive technologies, etc.) at system-level, organizing them in compute modules. Modules are clusters of potentially large size, each configured with a specific type of user requirement in mind. The different modules are interconnected via a high-speed network, and a common software stack brings all modules together creating a unique machine. The MSA aims at supporting a large diversity of applications and has been developed at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) through the EU-funded DEEP projects.

Bio: Prof. Dr. Estela Suarez is Team Leader at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) and Professor at University of Bonn. Her field of research is in HPC system-level architectures including heterogeneous computing resources, such as the Cluster-Booster and the Modular Supercomputing Architectures. She leads the DEEP series of EU-funded R&D projects and the co-design and validation Stream in the European Processor Initiative (EPI). Her background is in Astrophysics (Master from University Complutense of Madrid) and she holds a PhD in Physics from the University of Geneva.
