-
-Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
-
-Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
-conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
-original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
-and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
-following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
-exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
-
-     Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
-     intended for use by those authorized to give the public
-     permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
-     copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
-     irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
-     and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
-     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
-     applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
-     material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
-     material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
-     licensed material, or material used under an exception or
-     limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:
-    wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors
-
-     Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
-     licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
-     licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
-     the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
-     example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
-     copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
-     licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
-     other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
-     the licensed material may still be restricted for other
-     reasons, including because others have copyright or other
-     rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
-     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
-     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
-     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations

-By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree
-to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons
-Attribution 4.0 International Public License ("Public License"). To the
-extent this Public License may be interpreted as a contract, You are
-granted the Licensed Rights in consideration of Your acceptance of

-Licensed Material available under these terms and conditions.
-
-

-
-  a. Adapted Material means material subject to Copyright and Similar
-     Rights that is derived from or based upon the Licensed Material
-     and in which the Licensed Material is translated, altered,
-     arranged, transformed, or otherwise modified in a manner requiring
-     permission under the Copyright and Similar Rights held by the
-     Licensor. For purposes of this Public License, where the Licensed
-     Material is a musical work, performance, or sound recording,
-     Adapted Material is always produced where the Licensed Material is
-     synched in timed relation with a moving image.
-
-  b. Adapter's License means the license You apply to Your Copyright
-     and Similar Rights in Your contributions to Adapted Material in
-     accordance with the terms and conditions of this Public License.
-
-  c. Copyright and Similar Rights means copyright and/or similar rights
-     closely related to copyright including, without limitation,
-     performance, broadcast, sound recording, and Sui Generis Database
-     Rights, without regard to how the rights are labeled or
-     categorized. For purposes of this Public License, the rights
-     specified in Section 2(b)(1)-(2) are not Copyright and Similar
-     Rights.
-
-  d. Effective Technological Measures means those measures that, in the
-     absence of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws
-     fulfilling obligations under Article 11 of the WIPO Copyright
-     Treaty adopted on December 20, 1996, and/or similar international
-     agreements.
-
-  e. Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or
-     any other exception or limitation to Copyright and Similar Rights
-     that applies to Your use of the Licensed Material.
-
-  f. Licensed Material means the artistic or literary work, database,
-     or other material to which the Licensor applied this Public
-     License.
-
-  g. Licensed Rights means the rights granted to You subject to the
-     terms and conditions of this Public License, which are limited to
-     all Copyright and Similar Rights that apply to Your use of the
-     Licensed Material and that the Licensor has authority to license.
-
-  h. Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights
-     under this Public License.
-
-  i. Share means to provide material to the public by any means or
-     process that requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such
-     as reproduction, public display, public performance, distribution,
-     dissemination, communication, or importation, and to make material
-     available to the public including in ways that members of the
-     public may access the material from a place and at a time
-     individually chosen by them.
-
-  j. Sui Generis Database Rights means rights other than copyright
-     resulting from Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of
-     the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases,
-     as amended and/or succeeded, as well as other essentially
-     equivalent rights anywhere in the world.
-
-  k. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights
-     under this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning.
-
-
-Section 2 -- Scope.
-
-  a. License grant.
-
-       1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
-          the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
-          non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
-          exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
-
-            a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
-               in part; and
-
-            b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
-
-       2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
-          Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
-          License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
-          its terms and conditions.
-
-       3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
-          6(a).
-
-       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
-          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
-          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
-          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
-          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
-          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
-          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
-          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
-          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
-          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
-          (4) never produces Adapted Material.
-
-       5. Downstream recipients.
-
-            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
-               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
-               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
-               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
-               Public License.
-
-            b. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
-               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
-               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
-               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
-               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
-               Material.
-
-       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
-          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
-          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
-          with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
-          the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
-          provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
-
-  b. Other rights.
-
-       1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
-          licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
-          privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
-          the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
-          assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
-          extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
-          Rights, but not otherwise.
-
-       2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
-          Public License.
-
-       3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
-          collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
-          Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
-          under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
-          licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
-          reserves any right to collect such royalties.
-
-
-Section 3 -- License Conditions.
-
-Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
-following conditions.
-
-  a. Attribution.
-
-       1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
-          form), You must:
-
-            a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
-               with the Licensed Material:
-
-                 i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
-                    Material and any others designated to receive
-                    attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
-                    the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
-                    designated);
-
-                ii. a copyright notice;
-
-               iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
-
-                iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
-                    warranties;
-
-                 v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
-                    extent reasonably practicable;
-
-            b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
-               retain an indication of any previous modifications; and
-
-            c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
-               Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
-               hyperlink to, this Public License.
-
-       2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
-          reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
-          which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
-          reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
-          hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
-          information.
-
-       3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
-          information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
-          reasonably practicable.
-
-       4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's
-          License You apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted
-          Material from complying with this Public License.
-
-
-Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.
-
-Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
-apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
-
-  a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
-     to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
-     portion of the contents of the database;
-
-  b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
-     contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
-     Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
-     Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material; and
-
-  c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
-     all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
-
-For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
-replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
-Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
-
-
-Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
-
-  a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
-     EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
-     AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
-     ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
-     IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
-     WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-     PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
-     ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
-     KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
-     ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
-
-  b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
-     TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
-     NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
-     INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
-     COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
-     USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
-     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
-     DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
-     IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
-
-  c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
-     above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
-     possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
-     waiver of all liability.
-
-
-Section 6 -- Term and Termination.
-
-  a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
-     Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
-     this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
-     terminate automatically.
-
-  b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
-     Section 6(a), it reinstates:
-
-       1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
-          it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
-          violation; or
-
-       2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
-
-     For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
-     right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
-     of this Public License.
-
-  c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
-     Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
-     distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
-     will not terminate this Public License.
-
-  d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
-     License.
-
-
-Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.
-
-  a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
-     terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
-
-  b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the
-     Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and
-     independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
-
-
-Section 8 -- Interpretation.
-
-  a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
-     shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
-     conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
-     be made without permission under this Public License.
-
-  b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
-     deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
-     minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
-     cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
-     without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
-     conditions.
-
-  c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
-     failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
-     Licensor.
-
-  d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
-     as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
-     that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal
-     processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

-      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
-      excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
-      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
-
-      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
-      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
-      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
-
-   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
-      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
-      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
-      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
-      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
-      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
-
-   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
-      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
-      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
-      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
-      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
-      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
-      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
-      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
-      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
-      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
-      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
-      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
-      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
-      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
-      as of the date such litigation is filed.
-
-   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
-      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
-      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
-      meet the following conditions:
-
-      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
-          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
-
-      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
-          stating that You changed the files; and
-
-      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
-          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
-          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
-          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
-          the Derivative Works; and
-
-      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
-          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
-          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
-          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
-          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
-          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
-          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
-          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
-          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
-          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
-          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
-          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
-          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
-          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
-          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
-          as modifying the License.
-
-      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
-      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
-      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
-      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
-      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
-      the conditions stated in this License.
-
-   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
-      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
-      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
-      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
-      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
-      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
-      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
-
-   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
-      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
-      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
-      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
-
-   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
-      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
-      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
-      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
-      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
-      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
-      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
-      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
-      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
-
-   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
-      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
-      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
-      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
-      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
-      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
-      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
-      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
-      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
-      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
-      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
-
-   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
-      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
-      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
-      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
-      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
-      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
-      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
-      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
-      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
-      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

-Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
-
-Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
-conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
-original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
-and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
-following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
-exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
-
-     Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
-     intended for use by those authorized to give the public
-     permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
-     copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
-     irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
-     and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
-     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
-     applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
-     material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
-     material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
-     licensed material, or material used under an exception or
-     limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:
-    wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors
-
-     Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
-     licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
-     licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
-     the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
-     example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
-     copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
-     licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
-     other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
-     the licensed material may still be restricted for other
-     reasons, including because others have copyright or other
-     rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
-     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
-     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
-     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations

-     agreements.
-
-  e. Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or

-     Licensed Material and that the Licensor has authority to license.
-
-  h. Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights
-     under this Public License.
-
-  i. Share means to provide material to the public by any means or
-     process that requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such

-     equivalent rights anywhere in the world.
-
-  k. You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights
-     under this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning.
-
-
-Section 2 -- Scope.
-
-  a. License grant.
-
-       1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License,
-          the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
-          non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to
-          exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
-
-            a. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or
-               in part; and
-
-            b. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
-
-       2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where
-          Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public
-          License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with
-          its terms and conditions.
-
-       3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section
-          6(a).
-
-       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
-          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
-          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
-          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
-          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
-          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
-          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
-          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
-          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
-          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
-          (4) never produces Adapted Material.
-
-       5. Downstream recipients.
-
-            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
-               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
-               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
-               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
-               Public License.
-
-            b. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
-               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
-               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
-               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
-               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
-               Material.
-
-       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
-          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
-          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
-          with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
-          the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
-          provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
-
-  b. Other rights.

-date: "2015-01-16"
-categories: 
-  - "blogs"
----
-
-### Abstract
-
-Planning for exascale, accelerating time to discovery and extracting results from massive data sets requires organizations to continually seek faster and more efficient solutions to provision I/O and accelerate applications.  New burst buffer technologies are being introduced to address the long-standing challenges associated with the overprovisioning of storage by decoupling I/O performance from capacity. Some of these solutions allow large datasets to be moved out of HDD storage and into memory quickly and efficiently. Then, data can be moved back to HDD storage once processing is complete much more efficiently with unique algorithms that align small and large writes into streams, thus enabling users to implement the largest, most economical HDDs to hold capacity.
-
-This type of approach can significantly reduce power consumption, increase data center density and lower system cost. It can also boost data center efficiency by reducing hardware, power, floor space and the number of components to manage and maintain. Providing massive application acceleration can also greatly increase compute ROI by returning wasted processing cycles to compute that were previously managing storage activities or waiting for I/O from spinning disk.
-
-This session will explain how the latest burst buffer cache and I/O accelerator applications can enable organizations to separate the provisioning of peak and sustained performance requirements with up to 70 percent greater operational efficiency and cost savings than utilizing exclusively disk-based parallel file systems via a non-vendor-captive software-based approach.

-## Background
-
-Heterogeneous Computing is a system that uses more than one processor. This multi-core system not only enhances the performance of the processor core, but also incorporates specialized processing capabilities, such as GPU or FPGA, to work on specific tasks.
-
-In recent years, as the silicon chip approaches physical and economic cost limits, Moore’s law is dead.  The rapid development of the Internet, the explosive growth of information and the popularization of AI technology have highly increased the demand for computing power. Heterogeneous computing, the focus is not only limited to the improvement of CPU performance, but to break the bottleneck of data transmission between CPU and peripherals, and to allow more hardware devices to participate in computing, such as using dedicated hardware to be responsible for intensive computing or peripherals management, which can significantly improve the performance of the whole system. There is no doubt that heterogeneous computing is the main direction of improving computing power.
-
-Participants in the OpenCAPI heterogeneous computing design competition can achieve insight by utilizing and optimizing the most advanced technology available through OpenPOWER architecture. This competition will provide an opportunity to create breakthrough technologies and for enterprise and research workloads.\[/vc\_column\_text\]\[vc\_column\_text css=".vc\_custom\_1538077241426{margin-top: 20px !important;}"\]

-## 更多详情
-
-**CAPI和OpenCAPI**
-
-CAPI的全称是Coherent Acceleration Processor Interface，它是允许外部设备（I/O Device）和处理器CPU共享内存的接口技术。以FPGA为例，作为现场可编程门阵列硬件，它有令人惊叹的并行处理能力并完全可以自由定制，但它连在系统中时，仍然是个外部设备。它要参与到异构计算中，和CPU协同工作，不能共享内存怎么行呢？从技术上看，用CAPI接口连接FPGA作为异构计算平台有以下好处：
-
-- 它是带一致性的加速接口，FPGA可以直接像CPU一样直接访问内存。避免软硬件协同设计中的地址转换操作，大大简化编程思路，进而降低研发开销，缩短开发周期。
-- 主机端程序完全工作在用户态，无须编写PCIE设备驱动程序。
-- FPGA作为I/O设备，和主机通讯的延时更短。
-- 在FPGA处理能力增加的场景下，带宽瓶颈日益凸显。它是业内最领先的PCIE Gen4 (16Gbps) 和OpenCAPI (25Gbps) 通道，妥妥的大带宽！
-- OpenCAPI还支持I/O通道的内存扩展，由此探索存储级内存（SCM）对大数据应用的加速。
-
-OpenCAPI是独立的标准化组织（[www.opencapi.org](http://www.opencapi.org)），它将新一代CAPI技术规范开放出来，致力于推动高速硬件接口设计全面进入带内存一致性的时代，顺应异构计算的潮流，并为之提供了坚实的技术支撑。OpenCAPI首先在Power9发布，搭载Power9和OpenPOWER9服务器，但它的设计特性并没有绑定在Power架构上，完全可以嵌入其它种类的处理器架构。
-
- 
-
-**Power Systems和OpenPOWER**
-
- 
-
-在全球众多最大型的集群中，都能看到 Power Systems 高性能计算服务器的身影。Power Enterprise 服务器专为数据设计，可为企业实现终极的弹性、可用性、安全性等性能，被广泛应用于银行、政府、航空、能源等企业的核心业务中，为要求苛刻的工作负载（例如，基因、金融、计算化学、石油和天然气勘探以及高性能数据分析）提供极致。
-
- 
-
-2013年IBM开放Power服务器架构，成立OpenPOWER基金会(https://openpowerfoundation.org/)，目前已经有来自34个国家和地区的340多家公司加入，核心会员有IBM、Google、Nvidia、Redhat、Canonical（Ubuntu）、Hitachi、浪潮、Wistron等，共同建设开放的OpenPOWER生态。对比传统Power系统，基于 Linux 的OpenPOWER系统主要由联盟成员设计生产，价格优势明显，同时也能够实现出色的性能和投资回报率，适用于计算密集型和数据密集型应用。这些服务器提供您所需的灵活性，能够快速集成创新技术解决方案，避免被供应商的专有技术所“套牢”，并加速实现业务结果。
-
- 
-
-2018年初，IBM 宣布推出POWER9处理器。全新POWER9芯片为计算密集型人工智能工作负载而设计，是首批嵌入PCI-Express 4.0、新一代NVIDIA NVLink及OpenCAPI的处理器，基于该处理器的系统可以大幅提升Chainer、TensorFlow及Caffe等各大人工智能框架的性能，并加速Kinetica等数据库。提供超越过往所有设计的高速信号总线带宽。如此一来，数据科学家能够实现以更快的速度构建包括科研范畴的深度学习洞察、实时欺诈检测和信用风险分析等范围的应用。POWER9是美国能源部Summit及Sierra超级计算机的核心，这两台超级计算机是当今世界上性能最强的数据密集型超级计算机。

-## **Wasting CPU hours on compression**
-
-The Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing (CGRB) has a large computing resource that supports researchers at Oregon State University by providing processing power, file storage service and more. This computational resource is also used to capture all data generated from the CGRB Core Laboratory facility that processes biological samples used in High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) and other data rich tools.
-
-Currently, the CGRB Core Lab generates between 4TB and 8TB of data per day which directly lands on the biocomputing resource and is made immediately available to researchers.  Because of this, the CGRB has over 4PB of usable space within our biocomputing facility and continues to add space monthly. Since individual labs must purchase file space needed to accomplish their research, there is always pressure from the lab managers to have users clean up and reduce space allowing for new experiments to be done without the need to purchase more space. This process leads to many users taking CPU time to compress data needed for later use but limiting the lab’s current available space. Since we like to use processing machines for processing data and not just compressing, we needed to find a solution allowing GZIP work to be done without tying up our CPU hours.
-
-## **More computing, faster**
-
-To reduce loads on the processing machines and computational time devoted to compressing data, we started considering FPGA cards.
-
-Specifically, we evaluated offloading compression processes directly onto a peripheral FPGA card. Offloading compression would increase our output and help manage file space usage so groups do not have to purchase more space to start new experiments.
-
-The new IBM Power Systems POWER8 machines include an interface used to increase speed from CPUs to FPGAs in expansion slots. The Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) connects the expansion bus and allows users to access resources external to the main CPU and memory with up to 238 GB/sec bus speed, thus overcoming a key limitation when working with large data sets.
-
-Our users do take advantage of the capabilities of the FPGA card, they not only complete their tasks more quickly, but also free up additional CPU hours for other researchers on the cluster. The solution has provided a net benefit in resource utilization and thus has allowed _all_ users to do more computing, faster.
-
-## **The GZIP coprocessor success story**
-
-Initial tests showed compressing a small job with a 22-gigabyte file using the CPU would take over 9 minutes of time versus running on the FPGA card the same file would finish in 19 seconds. These tests were changed to massively increase the data being compressed and found that a job that would take 67 hours on the CPU would only take 50 minutes on the FPGA.
-
-The FPGA GZIP coprocessor has allowed our researchers and staff to quickly recover valuable file space, while speeding up analytics and processing. The coprocessor has its own queue allowing users to submit jobs that can access the gzip card rather than wait to use it interactively. As the coprocessor can only be utilized by a single process at any given time, using the queuing system allows for a mechanism where multiple users can submit jobs to use the card without over-loaded card since the queue waits for one job to finished before beginning the next.
-
-We have seen as much as a 100-fold increase in the rate at which we can compress and decompress data to and from our storage cluster. These data largely consist of text-based strings (e.g., A, C, T and G nucleotides), meaning they are highly compressible.
-
-The compression ratio achieved with the gzip card is inferior to that obtained by running gzip directly through the main processor. Our observations indicate that the gzip card yields approximately 80% of the compression obtained using standard methods. This was within an acceptable range for our users since the speed of both compression and decompression is so much greater than those achieved by the standard methods.

-As we prepare to join the computing world in celebrating the 50th anniversary of Moore’s Law, we can’t help but notice how the aging process has slowed it down. In fact, in a [recent interview](http://spectrum.ieee.org/computing/hardware/gordon-moore-the-man-whose-name-means-progress) with IEEE Spectrum, Moore said, “I guess I see Moore’s Law dying here in the next decade or so.”  But we have not come to bury Moore’s Law.  Quite the contrary, we need the economic advancements that are derived from the scaling Moore’s law describes to survive -- and they will -- if it adapts yet again to changing times.
-
-It is clear, as the next generation of warehouse scale computing comes of age, sole reliance on the “tick tock” approach to microprocessor development is no longer viable.  As I told the participants at our first OpenPOWER Foundation summit last month in San Jose, the era of relying solely on the generation to generation improvements of the general-purpose processor is over.  The advancement of the general purpose processor is being outpaced by the disruptive and surging demands being placed on today’s infrastructure.  At the same time, the need for the cost/performance advancement and computational growth rates that Moore’s law used to deliver has never been greater.   OpenPOWER is a way to bridge that gap and keep Moore’s Law alive through customized processors, systems, accelerators, and software solutions.  At our San Jose summit, some of our more than 100 Foundation members, spanning 22 countries and six continents, unveiled the first of what we know will be a growing number of OpenPOWER solutions, developed collaboratively, and built upon the non-proprietary IBM POWER architecture. These solutions include:
-
-Prototype of IBM’s first OpenPOWER high performance computing server on the path to exascale
-
-- First commercially available OpenPOWER server, the TYAN TN71-BP012
-- First GPU-accelerated OpenPOWER developer platform, the Cirrascale RM4950
-- Rackspace open server specification and motherboard mock-up combining OpenPOWER, Open Compute and OpenStack
-
-Together, we are reimagining the data center, and our open innovation business model is leading historic transformation in our industry.
-
-The OpenPOWER business model is built upon a foundation of a large ecosystem that drives innovations and shares the profits from those innovations. We are at a point in time where business model innovation is just as important to our industry as technology innovation.
-
-You don’t have to look any further than OpenPOWER Chairman, Gordon MacKean’s company, Google to see an example of what I mean. While the technology that Google creates and uses is leading in our industry, Google would not be even be a shadow of the company it is today without it’s extremely innovative business model. Google gives away all of its advanced technology for free and monetizes it through other means.
-
-In fact if you think about it, most all of the fastest growing “new companies” in our industry are built on innovative technology ideas, but the most successful ones are all leveraging business model innovations as well.
-
-The early successes of the OpenPower approach confirm what we all know – to expedite innovation, we must move beyond a processor and technology-only design ecosystem to an ecosystem that takes into account system bottlenecks, system software, and most importantly, the benefits of an open, collaborative ecosystem.
-
-This is about how organizations, companies and even countries can address disruptions and technology shifts to create a fundamentally new competitive approach.
-
-No one company alone can spark the magnitude or diversity of the type of innovation we are going to need for the growing number of hyper-scale data centers. In short, we must collaborate not only to survive…we must collaborate to innovate, differentiate and thrive.
-
-The OpenPOWER Foundation, our global team of rivals, is modeling what we IBMers like to call “co-opetition” – competing when it is in the best interest of our companies and cooperating with each other when it helps us all.  This combination of breakthrough technologies and unprecedented collaboration is putting us in the forefront of the next great wave of computing innovation.  Which takes us back to Moore’s Law.  In 1965, when Gordon Moore gave us a challenge and a roadmap to the future, there were no smartphones or laptops, and wide-scale enterprise computing was still a dream.  None of those technology breakthroughs would have been possible without the vision of one man who shared it with the world.  OpenPOWER is a bridge we share to a new era. Who knows what breakthroughs it will spawn in our increasingly technology-driven and connected world.  As Moore’s Law has shown us, the future is wide open.

-### Abstract
-
-Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally-invasive cancer therapy which uses a light-activated drug (photosensitizer/PS). When the photosensitizer absorbs a photon, it excites tissue oxygen into a reactive state which causes very localized cell damage. The light field distribution inside the tissue is therefore one of the critical parameters determining the treatment's safety and efficacy. While FDA-approved and used for superficial indications, PDT has yet to be widely adopted for interstitial use for larger tumours using light delivered by optical fibres due to a lack of simulation and planning optimization software. Because tissue at optical wavelengths has a very high scattering coefficient, extensive Monte Carlo modeling of light transport is required to simulate the light distribution for a given treatment plan. To enable PDT planning, we demonstrate here our “FullMonte” system which uses a CAPI-enabled FPGA to simulate light propagation 4x faster and 67x more power-efficiently than a highly-tuned multicore CPU implementation. With coherent low-latency access to host memory, we are not limited by the size of on-chip memory and are able to transfer results to and from the accelerator rapidly, which will be support our iterative planning flow. Potential advantages of interstitial PDT include less invasiveness and potential post-operative complications than surgery, better damage targeting and confinement than radiation therapy, and no systemic toxicity unlike chemotherapy. While attractive for developed markets for better outcomes, PDT is doubly attractive in emerging regions because it offers the possibility of a single-shot treatment with very low-cost and even portable equipment supported by remotely-provided computing services for planning.

-_By Michaela Blott, Principal Engineer, Xilinx Research_
-
-First, a bit of background-- I lead a research team in the European headquarters of Xilinx where we look into FPGA-based solutions for data centers. We experiment with the most advanced platforms and tool flows, hence our interest in OpenPOWER. If you haven't worked with an FPGA yet, it’s a fully programmable piece of silicon that allows you to create the perfect hardware circuit for your application thereby achieving best-in-class performance through customized data-flow architectures, as well as substantial power savings.  That means we can investigate how to make data center applications faster, smarter and greener while scrutinizing silicon features and tools flows. Our first application deep-dive was, and still is, key-value stores.
-
-Key-value stores (KVS) are a fundamental part of today’s data center functionality. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, flickr and many others use key-value stores to implement a tier of distributed caches for their web content to alleviate access bottlenecks on relational databases that don’t scale well. Up to 30% of data center servers implement key-value stores. But data centers are hitting a wall with performance requirements that drive trade-offs between high DRAM costs (in-memory KVS), bandwidth, and latency.
-
-We’ve been investigating KVS stores such as memcached since 2013 \[1,2\]. Initially the focus was on pure acceleration and power reduction. Our work demonstrated a substantial 35x performance/power versus the fastest x86 results published at the time. The trick was to completely transform the multithreaded software implementation into a data-flow architecture inside an FPGA as shown below.
-
-\[caption id="attachment\_2117" align="aligncenter" width="693"\]![Fig 1](images/Fig-1.jpg) Figure 1: 10Gbps memcached with FPGAs\[/caption\]
-
-However, there were a number of limitations: First, we were not happy with the constrained amount of DRAM that can be attached to an FPGA -- capacity is really important in the KVS context. Secondly, we were concerned about supporting more functionality.   For example, for protocols like Redis with its 200 commands, things can get complicated. Thirdly, we worried about ease-of-use, which is a typical adoption barrier for FPGAs. Finally, things become even more interesting once you add intelligence on top of your data: data analytics, object recognition, encryption, you name it. For this we really need a combination of compute resources that coherently shares memory. That’s exactly why OpenPOWER presented a unique and most timely opportunity to experiment with coherent interfaces.
-
-**Benchmarking CAPI**
-
-CAPI, the Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface, enables high performance and simple programming models for attaching FPGAs to POWER8 systems. First, we benchmarked PCI-E and CAPI acceleration against x86 in-memory models to determine the latency of PCI-E and CAPI. The results are explained below:
-
-\[caption id="attachment\_2118" align="aligncenter" width="619"\]![Figure2_new](images/Figure2_new.jpg) Figure 2: System level latency OpenPower with FPGA vs x86\[/caption\]
-
-**Latency**
-
-PCI-E DMA Engines and CAPI perform significantly better than typical x86 implementations. At 1.45 microseconds, CAPI operations are so low-latency that overall system-level impact is next to negligible.  Typical x86 installations service memcached requests within a range of 100s to 1000s of microseconds. Our OpenPower CAPI installation services the same requests in 3 to 5 microseconds, as illustrated in Figure 2 (which uses a logarithmic scale).
-
-\[caption id="attachment\_2119" align="aligncenter" width="698"\]![Figure3_new](images/Figure3_new.jpg) Figure 3: PCIe vs CAPI Bandwidth over transfer sizes\[/caption\]
-
-**Bandwidth**
-
-Figure 3 shows measured bandwidth vs. transfer size for CAPI in comparison to a generic PCIe DMA. The numbers shown are actual measurements \[4\] and are representative in that PCIe performance is typically very low for small transfer sizes and next to optimal for large transfer sizes. So for small granular access, CAPI far outperforms PCIe. Because of this, CAPI provides a perfect fit for the small transfer sizes as required in the KVS scenario. For implementing object storage in host memory, we are really only interested in using CAPI in the range of transfer sizes of 128 bytes to 1kbyte. Smaller objects can be easily accommodated in FPGA-attached DRAM; larger objects can be accommodated in Flash (see also our HotStorage 2015 publication \[3\]).
-
-**FPGA Design**
-
-Given the promising benchmarking results, we proceeded to integrate the host memory via CAPI. For this we created a hybrid memory controller which routes and merges requests and responses between the various storage types, handles reordering, and provides a gearbox for varying access speeds and bandwidths. With these simple changes, we now have up to 1 Terabyte of coherent memory space at our disposal without loss of performance! Figure 4 shows the full implementation inside the FPGA.
-
-\[caption id="attachment\_2120" align="aligncenter" width="748"\]![Figure4](images/Figure4.jpg) Figure 4: Memcached Implementation with OpenPower and FPGA\[/caption\]
-
-**Ease of Use**
-
-Our next biggest concern was ease of use for both FPGA design entry as well as with respect to host–accelerator integration. In regards to the latter, OpenPOWER exceeded our expectations. Using the provided API from IBM (libcxl) as well as the POWER Service Layer IP that resides within the FPGA (PSL), we completed system integration within a matter of weeks while saving huge amounts of code: 800 lines of code to be precise for x86 driver, memory allocation, and pinning, and 13.5k fewer instructions executed!
-
-Regarding the FPGA design, it was of utmost importance to ensure that it is possible to create a fully functional and high-performing design through a high-level design flow (C/C++ at minimum), in the first instance using Xilinx’s high-level synthesis tool, Vivado HLS. The good news was that we fully succeeded in doing this and the resulting application design was fully described in C/C++, achieving a 60% reduction in lines of code (11359 RTL vs 4069 HLS lines). The surprising bonus was that we even got a resource reduction – for FPGA-savvy readers: 22% in LUTs & 30% in FFs. And let me add, just in case you are wondering, the RTL designers were at the top of their class!
-
-The only low-level aspects left in the design flow are the basic infrastructure IP, such as memory controllers and network interfaces, which are still manually integrated. In the future, this will be fully automated through SDAccel. In other words, a full development environment that requires no further RTL development is on the horizon.
-
-**Results**
-
-\[caption id="attachment\_2121" align="aligncenter" width="693"\]![Figure5](images/Figure5.jpg) Figure 5: Demonstration at the OpenPower Summit 2015\[/caption\]
-
-We demonstrated the first operational prototype of this design at Impact in April 2014 and then demonstrated the fully operational demo vehicle (shown in Figure 5) including fully CAPI-enabled access to host memory at the OpenPOWER Summit in March 2015. The work is now fully integrated with [IBM’s SuperVessel](http://www.ptopenlab.com). In the live demonstration, the OpenPOWER system outperforms an x86 implementation by 20x (see Figure 6)!

-
-**Summary**
-
-The Xilinx demo architecture enables key-value stores that can operate at **60Gbps with 2TB value-store capacity** that fits within a 2U OpenPOWER Server. The architecture can be easily extended. We are actively investigating using Flash to expand value storage even further for large granular access. But most of all, we are really excited about the opportunities for this architecture when combining this basic functionality with new capabilities such as encryption, compression, data analytics, and face & object recognition!

-
-The [Human Brain Project](https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/) (HBP), a flagship project [funded by the European Commission](http://ec.europa.eu/research/fp7/index_en.cfm), has set itself an ambitious goal: Unifying our understanding of the human brain. To achieve it, researchers need a High-Performance Analytics and Compute Platform comprised of supercomputers with features that are currently not available, but OpenPOWER is working to make them a reality.
-
-Through a Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) the HBP initiated the necessary R&D, and turned to the OpenPOWER Foundation for help. During three consecutive phases, a consortium of [IBM and NVIDIA has successfully been awarded with R&D contracts](http://www.fz-juelich.de/SharedDocs/Pressemitteilungen/UK/EN/2016/16-09-27hbp_pilotsysteme.html). As part of this effort, a pilot system called [JURON](https://hbp-hpc-platform.fz-juelich.de/?page_id=1073) (a combination of Jülich and neuron) has been installed at Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC). It is based on the [new IBM S822LC for HPC servers](https://www.ibm.com/blogs/systems/ibm-nvidia-present-nvlink-server-youve-waiting/), each equipped with two POWER8 processors and four NVIDIA P100 GPUs.
-
-Marcel Huysegoms, a scientist from [the Institute for Neuroscience and Medicine](http://www.fz-juelich.de/inm/EN/Home/home_node.html), with support from the JSC could demonstrate soon after deployment the usability of the system for his brain image registration application. Exploiting the processing capabilities of the GPUs without further tuning, could achieve a significant speed-up compared to the currently used production system based on Haswell x86 processors and K80 GPUs.
-
-Not only do the improved compute capabilities matter for brain research, but also by designing and implementing the Global Sharing Layer (GSL), the non-volatile memory cards mounted on all nodes became a byte addressable, globally accessible memory resource. Using JURON it could be shown that data can be read at a rate that is only limited by network performance. These new technologies will open new opportunities for enabling data-intensive workflows in brain research, including data visualization.
-
-The pilot system will be the first system based on POWER processors where graphics support is being brought to the HPC node. In combination with the GSL it will be possible to visualize large data volumes that are, as an example, generated by brain model simulations. Flexible allocation of resources to compute applications, data analytics and visualization pipelines will be facilitated through another new component, namely the dynamic resource management. It allows for suspension of execution of parallel jobs for a later restart with a different number of processes.
-
-JURON clearly demonstrates the potential of a technology ecosystem settled around a processor architecture with interfaces that facilitate efficient integration of various devices for efficient processing, moving and storing of data. In other words, it demonstrates the collaborative potential of OpenPOWER.

-### Abstract
-
-It’s been nearly a year since the public launch of OpenPower and the community of technology leaders that make up our community have made significant progress towards our original goals. While growth of the membership is a critical factor, our success will come from the technology provided through the ‘open model’ and the ‘value’ solutions that are enabled by leveraging that technology. Please join us as we highlight the key components that our member community have contributed to that ‘open model’ and spotlight some examples of high value solutions enabled through members leveraging our combined capabilities and strengths.

-It was great to attend the [OpenPOWER Summit Europe](https://openpowerfoundation.org/summit-2018-10-eu/) in Amsterdam earlier this month. As an academia member from a medical background, it was the first completely technical forum I had attended at an international level.
-
-The [PES Institute of Medical Sciences](http://pesimsr.pes.edu/), India has been working with IBM and the OpenPOWER community recently on developing AI solutions for patient care in our rural facility. We are a tertiary care teaching institute catering to a rural population of around one million. I attended the OpenPOWER Summit Europe to discuss the need and opportunity for deploying AI solutions in our work.
