“The role of simulation in Big Data processes” by Emilio Luque & Dolores Rexachs. Universidad Nacional de Tierra del Fuego. Usuahia. Argentina. July 5 at 10:00 a.m.

The Universidad Nacional de Tierra del Fuego, in the framework of the Degree in Systems, organized the conference The role of simulation in Big Data processes, by professors Emilio Luque and Dolores Rexachs, from HPC4EAS at UAB.

This training space was intended for professionals, computer technicians and general public interested in simulation experiences and Big Data. The conference focoused on the importance of applying Simulation Tools to large datasets, in order to be able to predict the future and make decisions. These techniques would be of vital importance in areas as health, environment and risk processes. This initiative is supported by the Proyecto de Mejoramiento de Computación, Informática y Sistemas (PROMINF).

Keynote from Professor Luque & Professor De Giusti.

The 5th Conference of Cloud Computing and Big Data (JCC & BD) are organized by the Faculty of Computer Science of the UNLP under the auspices of the RedUNCI (Network of National Universities with Computer Science Bachelors) and the collaboration of the HPC4EAS group of the Autonomous University of Barcelona . They form a complementary area to different activities in the area of distributed and parallel processing carried out by the Argentine Universities through RedUNCI.
Professor Luque & Professor De Giusti talked about the CC and that with better capacity of data processing can make faster and intelligent decisions. (+ info)

Securing your network is not enough. Every service that you deploy is a window into your data center from the outside world—a window that could be exploited by an attacker. Bart Miller and Elisa Heymann explain how to minimize the security flaws in the software you develop or manage. Bart and Elisa focus on the programming practices that can lead to security vulnerabilities and on automated tools for finding security weaknesses. Using interactive secure coding quizzes—synthesized versions of vulnerabilities found in real grid/cloud software—you’ll be challenged to find as many vulnerabilities as you can in short code fragments. Bart and Elisa then dive into what you find (or don’t).

Dr. Elisa Heymann participated in the NATO Conference at Souda Bay – Chania – HELLAS

1st Conference on CyberSecurity in the maritime environment, was conducted at NMIOTC and was attended by 125 participants from twenty Allied and Partner nations, International Organizations, the international academic community, as well as representatives from the maritime industry and strategic think tanks. The aim was to gather subject matter experts and the whole community of interest in order to provide opportunities to discuss issues related to this emerging challenge in the maritime environment.The Chief of HNDGS, Admiral E. Apostolakis GRC (N) and the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR), General C. Scaparotti USA (A) addressed the participants, highlighting the importance of the matter.

Methodology for the efficient execution HPC applications in multi-core environments. IBM (New York). December 6, 2016. Prof Emilio Luque. Computer Architecture and Operating System Department (CAOS). HPC for Efficient Applications & Simulation (HPC4EAS). University Autonoma of Barcelona (UAB), Spain

Abstract

In parallel applications executed in HPC environments there are idle times during the execution that can be caused by communication collisions or cache conflits generating cache misses. 
We are developing a methodology, for message passing parallel scientific applications, which attempts to reduce the applications execution time by reducing these idle times.
In our proposal, to allocate processes to processors, we define two kind of “forces” acting among the processes: attraction and repulsion forces.
  1. Attraction forces are used to approximate those processes interchaning high volumes of communications, in order to speed up the communication.
  2. Repulsion forces are used to “separate” those processes with high volumes of data, in order to avoid they can share common caches, generating high cache misses ratios.

Dr. Manuel Taboada González & Dr. Hugo Meyer (members of HPC4EAS): they received the extraordinary doctoral award, November 2016.

Congratulations!

The project (which involved HPC4EAS members) H4H (Hybrid4HPC),  received the Award of Excellence in the category “Business impact” (ITEA Consortium, Stockholm, Sweden).

The H4H project (Optimise HPC Applications on Heterogeneous Architectures), was developing a single hybrid programming environment that will enable the European research and industry to compete globally in this strategically important HPC market (Oct 2010 – Feb 2015).
