"The goal for this workshop will identify ways that we can abstract
architectures, in general, to meet the ever-changing complexities
inherent in exascale (and beyond). This workshop will be essential
in molding our path forward in hardware and software architectures
design space exploration, including simulation and emulation modeling
and their role in developing and implementing abstract machine models.
Moreover, we believe that such methodologies will prove insightful
in discovering what could and should be included or changed in next
and future generation hardware. Scholars from both DOE and non-DOE
communities will participate. Together we will identify machine
abstractions, their idealized primitives, and view of memory. It will
be informative to discuss and debate the realization of these
abstractions. Moreover, given an existing real system and/or subsystem,
how do we do explain its machine abstraction and would this abstraction
be sufficient to explain the performance attributes of exascale?"

2011 Workshop on Architectures I: Exascale and Beyond: Gaps in Research,
Gaps in our Thinking
http://www.orau.gov/archI2011/default.htm
"It has been approximately two years since DOE and DARPA completed their
"ground breaking" exascale reports. In July 2010, the DARPA UHPC program
was started. Four teams were funded to research and develop ExtremeScale
designs. Various computer vendors have claimed that they are investigating
the designs of exascale computers (IBM, HP and SGI). Several DOE labs are
also investigating exascale designs (LBL, Sandia). The purpose of
this workshop is to address the hardware and software architecture
challenges for developing exascale computers. It would be very informative
to revisit the exascale studies and explore what has been learned and
to discuss research gaps. To achieve this goal we will meet and discuss
the lessons learned from these various activities."

--------------------------------------------------
Xsigoプレスリリースやビデオの前に、後半で紹介する The Registerの記事を
先に読んだ方が解りやすい気もしますが、まずはプレスリリースから
"Xsigo First to Market with Virtualized Server Fabric to Enable Cloud
Data Centers"
Xsigo Server Fabric lets enterprise IT managers and cloud providers
provision new services 10x faster at half the cost of operation
Xsigo leapfrogs switch and port-based legacy vendors Cisco, Brocade
and Juniper with fully virtualized network connectivity
August 15, 2011
"Xsigo Systems today announced the Xsigo Server Fabric, the industry's
first fully virtualized infrastructure for cloud-optimized data centers.
The Xsigo Server Fabric enables one-click network connections from
virtual machines to any data center resource - including servers,
networks, storage, and other virtual machines - to accelerate
the management of virtualized data centers."

一般公開されました:
"Joyent Announces SmartOS With KVM: An Open Source, Modern Operating System"
KVM on SmartOS provides entrepreneurs and enterprises highest performance
and profit potential through best of breed cloud technologies
August 15, 2011
"... today announced that it has ported KVM to its operating system,
SmartOS. SmartOS turns any server into a highly efficient,
multi-tenant application hosting platform. The open source project
offers innovative tools for application developers looking for
reliable, resilient storage and efficient virtualization that
Joyent has tuned and hardened for modern, data-intensive real-time
(DIRTy) application deployment."
