QsNet3 or QsNetIII?
Quadrics' new generation of interconnect is called "QsNet three", and when written it appears like this: "QsNetIII" but for podcast users in this blog I'll use QsNet3.

Quadrics, leading developer and supplier of interconnect technology for HPC
Quadrics is a leading developer and supplier of interconnect technology for High Performance Computing.
Quadrics products form an integral part of some of the world's largest computers, allowing many thousands of processors to be used as a single system, and have been selected by the world's leading vendors and integrators as well as major supercomputing centres.
Quadrics' third generation of interconnect product, QsNet3, is a multi-stage or 'fat tree' switch network connecting commodity servers. It has been specifically designed to maximise the performance of large HPC applications.
QsNet3 comprises adapters, switches, cables allowing the construction of federated network of up to 4096 nodes. QsNet3 software includes support for HPC programming tools including MPI, Shmem, UPC and Lustre. HPC specific optimisations include low latency, high bandwidth links, adaptive routing (used extensively to distribute network load), hardware barrier and broadcast support. Quadrics interconnect is particularly suited to large simulation programs that require the combination of outstanding network performance and 24 7 production execution.

Quadrics at SC08
Quadrics is attending Supercomputing, this year the most important HPC event will take place in Austin, Texas, from November 15th to November 22nd.At the show, Quadrics will be launching its third generation of interconnect product. QsNetIII is a multi-stage or 'fat tree' switch network connecting commodity servers. It has been specifically designed to maximise the performance of large HPC applications.
If you want to come and see why not popping in at stand 313? Alternatively, go to the Quadrics website, www.quadrics.com, where you can book a meeting.
