Sterling, who teaches computer science at Louisiana State University, was the force behind the Beowulf Project. It involves a cluster system that has been designed as a cost-effective alternative to supercomputers.
ParalleX is a new computation model that will take
advantage of future multicore clusters as they scale to petaflops
capability, Sterling said. ParalleX will likely replace communicating-sequential-processes
model and dominate high-performance computing in the next 15 years.
The advent of new computation technology is opening up new opportunities for every country, especially Thailand.
