The computing industry has come face-to-face with numerous challenges that require fundamental changes to way we think about computing. The future of computing is now undeniably very different than the past. Architectures and instruction sets are being revisited. The computing industry is rapidly redefining itself by aggressively shifting away from increasingly higher clock speeds and smaller transistors towards multi-core architectures and alternative processing technologies including FPGAs and GPUs. Business users and software developers trained to think serially badly need new toolsets, business applications, and software IDEs that allow them to take advantage of increasingly complex parallel hardware. Numerous pieces of this complex ecosystem are beginning to emerge- from IDEs to take advantage of new architectures, to business applications to crunch data and model industrial processes- and those positioned to take advantage of this shift will stand at the doorstep of unprecedented opportunity. Join the leading industry, academic, and scientific minds at HPC Adoption-09 in a unique forum to address the challenges of HPC adoption and the latest trends driving this revolution.
