Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. In early January a related paper was published by Satoshi Matsuoka et. petaflops, which is 0.8%

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. I love short benchmarks like this as I can disassemble the resulting binary and ensure that the compiled instructions match my expectations, and the compiler hasen't messed with it. ## 6. include <sys/time.h>

Earlier this month I spent a week at the OpenStack conference. But once you realize that there are, in fact, several OpenStack conferences happening at the same time and place, it makes more sense. Latency Optimizers” – need support for very large federated deployments. The “Public Private Cloud” folks.
