Dan Stanzione from TACC presented this keynote at the recent MVAPICH User Group. "The Stampede system began production operations in January 2013. The system was one of the largest ever deployments of MVAPICH, with a 6,400 node FDR Infiniband fabric connecting more than 2PF of Intel Xeon processors. The system also was the first large scale installation of the Intel many core Xeon Phi Co-Processors, which also used MVAPICH for communications. This talk will discuss the experiences over the first 1.5 years of production with MVAPICH and Stampede."
