Technology

The laws of physics are standing in the way of technology moving forward at the speed researchers have become accustomed. Increasing processor frequencies and semiconductor densities have created a heat and power brick wall.

Today's incremental performance improvements are not enough. To achieve order of magnitude performance increases, we must do things differently.

Hybrid-core computing: a revolutionary computer architecture

The Convey HC-1 and HC-1ex employ groundbreaking hybrid-core technology that shatters the heat and power brick wall increasing application performance and saving money in power and maintenance costs. Learn More

Application-specific hardware dramatically increases performance

The Convey hybrid-core nodes provide application-specific acceleration for large HPC-class problems using dynamically loadable personalities. Extensions to the x86 instruction set, "personalities" are implemented in the hardware to optimize performance of specific portions of an application. Learn More
