Intel opens parallel application testing lab 11:42AM, Wednesday 8th December 2004
Intel and SGI have announced the opening of a Parallel Application Centre to help third-parties to test the scalabililty and performance of heavy duty apps.

Employing SGI and Intel-based technology, the centre is intended to be a state-of-the-art development and testing facility for developers and ISVs worldwide.

'The Centre will accelerate the pace of innovation for high-performance computing across leading enterprise and advanced academic environments,' said Richard Wirt, Intel Senior Fellow and General Manager, Software and Solutions Group. 'We are delighted to be working with SGI in providing application developers of all types access to the Parallel Application Centre to enable organizations to continually benefit from the technological advancement of the Intel Itanium 2 processor and the SGI Altix platform.'

Using a 32-way Itanium 2-based SGI Altix 3000 system, the Parallel Application Centre is located in Swindon. Intel promises a fully managed platform, providing all the tools required to port, optimise and evaluate applications within the centre.

One- to two-week exclusive on-site access is available. And as well as providing a 64-bit parallel processing test environment, the idea is also for developers to use the centre to showcase their optimised applications to customers.
