I ran across this excellent article on Edge HPC and by golly, it sounds like the need for both of the following is growing at a huge rate:
- Increasing the efficiency of the software solutions made to solve business problems
- Providing adaptability of software systems to changes such as increased load and failures
They call this new landscape: “Edge High Performance Computing“, as opposed to “High Performance Computing“
To my mind the major difference here between these classes of problems is the need to maintain state and the capacity to leverage less-exotic hardware and more “modern” and likely Object-Oriented software languages such as .NET, C++ and Java.
I like very much the quality of the content of the Tabor research work and look forward to future updates from them regarding these topics.
