Английская Википедия:IBM Kittyhawk
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other uses Kittyhawk is an IBM supercomputer. The proposed project entails constructing a global-scale shared supercomputer capable of hosting the entire Internet on one platform as an application, whereas the current Internet is a collection of interconnected computer networks.[1][2]
In 2010 IBM open sourced the Linux kernel patches that allow otherwise unmodified Linux distributions to run on Blue Gene/P. This action allowed the Kittyhawk system software stack to be run at large scale at Argonne National Lab. The open source version of Kittyhawk is available on a public website hosted by Boston University.[3]
In 2012 the Kittyhawk project was made a part of the United States Department of Energy fault oblivious execution (FOX) project, and ported to run on the Intrepid supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory.[4]
In 2013 researchers used the Kittyhawk project to demonstrate a novel high-performance cloud computing platform by merging a cloud computing environment with a supercomputer. [5] [6]
Specifications
IBM Research has published three papers[7][8][9] detailing the project. Kittyhawk will be based on the previously developed IBM supercomputer called Blue Gene/P. In theory, Kittyhawk can have up to 16,384Шаблон:Nbspracks, for a total of 67.1Шаблон:Nbspmillion cores and 32Шаблон:NbspPB (32Шаблон:Nbsp×Шаблон:Nbsp250 bytes) of memory.[10]
