SGI and ANSYS collaborate on optimizing software and serversMountain View 13 November 2000 ANSYS and SGI are collaborating to optimize the performance of larger, faster and more complex simulations through multiprocessor technology.
The optimized technology is geared for industries such as aerospace, aircraft
engines, automotive and MEMS (micro electrical mechanical systems). The initial
tuning of the ANSYS software will be done on an SGI 2000 series system with
16 processors and 16GB of main memory. Because the system is a rack server -
powerful, flexible and scalable in all dimensions - customers will have the
ability to add more processors using NUMAflex modular building blocks to scale
the single shared-memory system, as the problem size increases.
Additionally, high-performance networking and remote management tools will
allow customers to position SGI Origin family servers wherever a company
requires, maintaining data and the configuration consistency of remote systems.
