[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nAcceleware's New Matrix Equation Solvers Broadly Applicable for Markets\n\n\nIncluding Design Automation, Reservoir Simulation and Seismic Data\n\n\nProcessing\n\n\nCALGARY, June 18 /CNW/ - Acceleware(R) Corp. (TSXV: AXE), a leading\ndeveloper of high performance computing solutions, today announced\nacceleration of matrix equation solvers found in simulation and data\nprocessing software commonly used for scientific and industrial applications.\nThese new methods significantly extend the problem solving capability of the\nAcceleware Platform, allowing a broad new range of application providers the\nopportunity to deliver the compelling performance of multi-core and hardware\naccelerators to their technical computing customers. With matrix methods added\ninto the Acceleware Platform, end users of these advanced techniques can\nbenefit by solving their linear equation problems up to 20X faster.\n\n\n"The technical computing market has experienced explosive growth over the\nlast four years at 20% a year, and is expected to continue in a high growth\nmode. Users running multi-physic codes, electromagnetic, mechanical, fluid\ndynamics, EDA and oil/gas codes are driving this growth and require major\nspeed-ups on their applications to gain a competitive advantage. At the same\ntime, processors and systems are becoming more complex, making it harder to\nobtain the required speed-ups. Linear solvers are used ubiquitously in\nscientific and industry applications, simulation, and data processing, so\nspeed-ups in this area directly helps end-users, providing faster\ntime-to-market and increased scientific insights," commented Earl C. Joseph,\nPhD. Program Vice President, High-Performance Computing at IDC.\n\n\nAcceleware's matrix equation solver technology will be applicable for\nusers of various electronic design automation, mechanical, fluid dynamics,\nmicrowave, photonics, signal integrity/power integrity tools and integrated\ncircuit software tools, significantly reducing the simulation time in their\ndesign flow. This allows semiconductor, wireless handset, and consumer and\nindustrial product manufacturers to bring higher-performance, feature-rich\nproducts to market sooner, giving them a competitive edge and transforming the\nway they solve problems. Oil and gas companies also use matrix methods to\nsolve larger,...
