XLcloud: Design, Develop and Integrate The Software Elements of a High Performance Cloud Computing (HPCC) System. The XLcloud collaborative project is developing a cloud management platform that addresses the specific requirements of high performance cloud computing applications and users. XLcloud is designed for computational intensive workloads in collaborative applications with interactive remote visualisation capabilities.
XLcloud aims to define and demonstrate the principles of HPC as a Service (High Performance Computing) for all those applications that involve highly intensive calculations. XLcloud is designed as a collaborative tool that enables users to work together on highly sophisticated software in the Cloud, thus sidestepping the need for individuals to have to purchase expensive software on their own. XLcloud combines the expertise of companies and academics that are innovative in the field of high performance computer architectures and flow visualization HD/3D and video.
