But as data sets get larger, analyzing trends or generating predictions becomes more and more of a challenge. If you're doing predictive modeling today and find that you can no longer use all of your data because of size limitations, or the computations are taking too long for you to take action on the results, then the parallel-processing capabilities of Microsoft HPC Server can help. In this webinar, we'll introduce the R language for statistical computing, and show how the easy-to-use parallel programming capabilities of REvolution R Enterprise work with a HPC cluster to cut processing times by an order of magnitude or more. We'll give practical examples of how to speed up many kinds of analytic computations, from simple summary statistics to cutting-edge tools like ensemble predictive models.

When working with an HPC cluster- including thousands of machines and many different hardware components and software packages- errors and failures are unavoidable. As a result, most HPC administrators spend a large majority of their time on diagnostics. Windows HPC Server 2008, the current version, offers 16 built-in system tests and a GUI and scripting interface to run tests, receive and clear alerts, view results and preserve result history. In the latest release, Windows HPC Server 2008 R2, this diagnostics platform is becoming extensible: administrators and partners can create custom diagnostic tests to run in the same way as the built-in tests. This allows cluster administrators to troubleshoot more easily the custom and non-Microsoft software or hardware added to their HPC cluster.

 

This session will cover:

- What you can do with the extensible diagnostics framework

- How to create a custom diagnostic test, add it to WPHC, run it and view results

- How to aggregate test results for a large scale cluster so that administrator can easily spot the outliers

- Ideas for tests to help validating or troubleshooting ISV apps

]]> http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 The latest version of Windows HPC Server offers the signature advantages of a Windows operating system such as ease of use, advanced professional development tools, and unparalleled binary compatibility. However, the migration of applications to a Windows platform can be a learning experience for a typical high-performance computing (HPC) developer with a strong UNIX background. In this webcast, we discuss the anatomy of a typical HPC application and the general porting process. We explain how to use cross-platform development tools such as Cygwin, CMake, Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA), and the migration API reference guide. We also provide an update on the status of OSS solver and I/O libraries.  Powerpoint Presentation 3286 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:02:00 GMT http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300 Wenming Ye Wenming Ye 0 http://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/The+HPC+Show/MSDN-Webcast-Migrating-Your-HPC-Applications-to-the-Windows-Platform-Level-300/RSS HPC Server 2008 HPC Server 2008R2 math library migration Science Technical Computing Windows 2000 Server MSDN Webcast: Taking Scientific Computing Mainstream with Windows Client & Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 (Level 200) Powerpoint resentation link
