SC09 Cluster Challenge: Purdue, ITaP student supercomputing team wins 'green' computing award
Purdue’s student Cluster Challenge team at the SC09 supercomputing conference in Portland, Ore., was fast and green.
The Purdue team in the competition, where teams of undergraduates from around the country pushed their student-run supercomputers to the maximum over three days, won the award for getting the most done on the least amount of power, organizers announced Thursday. Purdue also won the power consumption award last year.
