Mitong Society -PR Newswire, California, Shanjing City, October 11th, the world's leading innovative status, SGI (New York Stock Exchange Code: SGI) today announced Silicon Graphics Prism (TM) It is the world's most powerful, most flexible Linux (R) operating system-based visual computer product line. The first time SGI has taken out its most advanced, only a few of the previously available computer graphics performance, and places it on a truly open and accessible platform. By combining standard Intel (R) ITANIUM (R) 2 processor, Linux operating environment and its world-famous advanced graphics technology, SGI has created a single system that suits the world's most demanding visual computing problem - - All prices can be accepted by a broader user.
Paul McNamara, senior vice president and general manager of SGI, said: "The pace of scientific discovery and design innovation has never been active, Silicon Graphics PRISM provides existing state-of-the-art visual performance, They are more competitive in today's innovative driver. By providing this feature on open platforms based on Linux operating systems, more researchers and innovators will use this flattening visual calculation. "
In the field of visualization, Silicon Graphics PRISM breaks through the performance and interactive ability of performance and interactivity caused by other computer system architecture.
Realistic applications (such as cancer research, disaster prevention, petroleum exploration, and car safety analysis) involve a lot of data. Today's typical commercial mapping system must decompose this data into small pieces to facilitate graphics processing - this process not only consumes more and disadvantages. As a complete visualization system, Silicon Graphics PRISM is intended to process a highly complex data of Gigabit ziz as a single and continuous data in the memory. Users can quickly grasp the complex relationships in their data, and ultimately deepen the relevant issues.
SGI Visual System Group Marketing Director Shawn Underwood said: "Imagine 1000 images of a pile of postcards, then attach them together to form a monolithic whole. That is the process of distributed processing to a group of commodities. This is slow and not accurate. Use Silicon Graphics Prism, you can quickly see the entire picture. "
Because advanced visualization is an indispensable part of a wide range of applications, Silicon Graphics PRISM is conducive to the launch of a wide range of markets. For example, university researchers can work more simple to cooperate with distant colleagues, and the oil exploration team can see more detailed seismic data, engaged in drug development, can conduct a protein group simulation in interactive ways, and emergency management Personnel can make a model of disaster.
US National Super Computing Application Center (NCSA) Temporary Rob Pennington said: "NCSA is very exciting to Silicon Graphics PRISM is very exciting for the visual interaction provided by the super operation. Our collaborative researchers include the global leader in their respective industries. They are seeking new ways to understand the Gigabile data generated in their application. Silicon Graphics PRISM system combines the upgraded visualization, large-capacity memory, and upgradeable computing, so that the researchers become its computational research. Active participants, rather than observes analyzing afterwards. "
California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (California Telecom and Information Sciences), the University of California, the University of California, San Diego said: "The pace of accelerating scientific research requires the GMB size data. For detailed insight, this insight is mainly achieved by Silicon Graphics PRISM. SGI's new system has the ability to use Visual Area Networking (visual area network) to provide insight into the heterogeneous group, Visual Area Networking allows the implementation of cooperation between this discipline, which will bring unique breakthroughs.
