REDIMPS
Overview of the Project
REDIMPS (Research and Development of International Matrix Prediction System) is a project founded by the Strategic
Japanese-French Cooperative Program on
"Information and Communications Technology
including Computer Science" with the CNRS and the JST.
The goal of this international collaboration is to build
an international sparse linear equation solver expert site.
Among the objectives of
the project, one resides in the cooperation of the TLSE partners and the JAEA in the
testing, the validation and the promotion of the TLSE system that is
currently released.
JAEA, who is one of the leading institute and organization of
Japanese HPC, is studying high-performance numerical simulation method
on novel super computers, and is expecting to find
the best linear solver within this collaboration.
By integrating knowledge and technology of JAEA
and TLSE partners, we aim at
promoting of an international expert system for sparse linear
algebra using an international grid computing environment.
Activities
- Test, validation and promotion of the TLSE system that is currently released.
- Interoperability between the
AEGIS/ITBL and DIET Grid Middleware is achieved.
- Annual France-Japan workshops on Grid computing and sparse linear algebra
are organized together with joined demontrations and presentations.
