HP ProLiant servers to support Acceleration and Visualization products, and it describes the ongoing qualification and testing efforts undertaken at HP modern graphics controllers are GPU's, processor chips that are specifically designed to perform the complex mathematics required for rendering 3D - HP ProLiant DL288 | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 3
remote viewing software such as HP Remote Graphics Software or other 3rd party products. There are several advantages to running Visualization applications on servers. Server processor and memory resources. Servers can provide more processors and larger memory configurations than many workstations - HP ProLiant DL288 | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 4
acceleration products for servers come in two solutions for supporting large-scale for specific Acceleration to use less power than GPU's. bit). Current GPUs work well with 32 bit floating point precision as well as small objects. The next generation GPUs are expected to work well with 64 bit - HP ProLiant DL288 | Visualization and Acceleration in HP ProLiant servers - Page 5
between system memory and the accelerator board. Accomplishing this quickly and efficiently requires a great deal of I/O bandwidth. In order to provide the best support for accelerator products, HP has incorporated true x16 PCI Express slots into many of its ProLiant servers.
