  1. Convergences of the Extremes: Computational Science meets Networked Sensors David Culler, Moderator SC2000 Panel November 10, 2000

  2. A New Frontier for SCxy • “SC is not just about supercomputing, its where the latest wave of technology gets applied to real problems” – Louis Turcotte, gen. chair SC2000 • SC has been “riding the CMOS wave” • 88-92: Rise of the “killer micro” • 93-99: Emergence of the “killer network” • single chip CMOS networks of the CM-5 and Paragon now the heart of clusters, gigabit ethernet, ... • along with other emerging technologies • visualization, haptics, ... • Panel Goal: open your eyes to a new frontier SC2000 Extremes

  3. I SD Q SD baseband PLL filters • Low-power Wireless Communication mixer LNA Where is CMOS going? • Not just Moore’s law • Micro Electical Mechanical Systems (MEMS) • rich array of sensors are becoming cheap and tiny • Imagine, all sorts of chips that are connected to the physical world and to cyberspace! SC2000 Extremes

  4. We are seeing the first signs SC2000 Extremes

  5. Commonality at the Extremes • Pushing performance of available resources to solve problems • Pushing the technological edge • Complex applications • Packaging, Power Management • Long running • Communication Critical • Simplicity • Highly Parallel Programming / Operation • Faults, Failures, Availability SC2000 Extremes

  6. Tapping Experience of SC Community • Extensive instrumentation and measurement • Extensive sensor development and use • Wide-scale distributed computing • Vast, embedded data sets • Serious parallel Programming SC2000 Extremes

  7. Some of the Opportunities • Integrating measurement with real-time modeling • Complete scientific data processing and analysis • Distributed, integrated sensor networks • Computational modeling applied to the technology itself • Sensor technology applied to high performance systems management • ... SC2000 Extremes

  8. The Panel • Deborah Estrin,University of California, Los Angeles, ISI – network perspective • Wahid Hermina, Sandia National Laboratories – MEMS technology perspective • Larry Arnstein, University of Washington – Deeply Instrumented Laboratory • James Demmel, University of California, Berkeley, - Computational Modeling • 10-15 minute presentations followed by discussion SC2000 Extremes
