Acellera's mission is to design and develop high performance algorithms and solutions for scientific and mission-critical applications. Our know-how on numerical techniques, cutting-edge hardware and software technologies is critical to provide our customers with the most innovative and cost-effective application.
Acellera has been able to exploit the revolutionary design and architecture of
the Sony-Toshiba-IBM Cell processor, running a molecular dynamics simulation
of a protein at 20 times the speed of contemporary processors
used in personal computers. In general, using this special hardware,
Acellera can provide a computing power at unprecedented low-cost per
Gigaflops, delivering 'supercomputing' capabilities at affordable prices.
"Overall results demonstrate the tremendous potential of the Cell architecture for scientific
computations in terms of both raw performance and power efficiency"
