  2. Hardware performance counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_performance_counter

    The number of available hardware counters in a processor is limited while each CPU model might have a lot of different events that a developer might like to measure. Each counter can be programmed with the index of an event type to be monitored, like a L1 cache miss or a branch misprediction.

  3. High-performance computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-performance_computing

    High-performance computing (HPC) as a term arose after the term "supercomputing". [4] HPC is sometimes used as a synonym for supercomputing; but, in other contexts, "supercomputer" is used to refer to a more powerful subset of "high-performance computers", and the term "supercomputing" becomes a subset of "high-performance computing".

  4. ROCm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROCm

    ROCm [3] is an Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) software stack for graphics processing unit (GPU) programming. ROCm spans several domains: general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU), high performance computing (HPC), heterogeneous computing.

  5. Logical block addressing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_block_addressing

    In logical block addressing, only one number is used to address data, and each linear base address describes a single block. The LBA scheme replaces earlier schemes which exposed the physical details of the storage device to the software of the operating system. Chief among these was the cylinder-head-sector (CHS) scheme, where blocks were addressed by means

  6. Hot potassium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_potassium_carbonate

    Hot potassium carbonate, HPC, is a method used to remove carbon dioxide from gas mixtures, [1] in some contexts referred to as carbon scrubbing.The inorganic, basic compound potassium carbonate is mixed with a gas mixture and the liquid absorbs carbon dioxide through chemical processes. [2]

  7. HPC Challenge Benchmark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HPC_Challenge_Benchmark

    HPC Challenge Benchmark combines several benchmarks to test a number of independent attributes of the performance of high-performance computer (HPC) systems. The project has been co-sponsored by the DARPA High Productivity Computing Systems program, the United States Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation .

    PelicanHPC is an operating system based on Debian Live, which provides a rapid means of setting up a high performance computer cluster. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]PelicanHPC ...

  9. High-throughput computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-throughput_computing

    There are many differences between high-throughput computing, high-performance computing (HPC), and many-task computing (MTC). HPC tasks are characterized as needing large amounts of computing power for short periods of time, whereas HTC tasks also require large amounts of computing, but for much longer times (months and years, rather than hours and days).
