Engineers looking to tap into high-performance computing
(HPC) horsepower to help solve their complex mathematical problems now have a
new option with the latest version of Maplesoft's Maple Grid Computing Toolbox.
The Maple 14 release of the Grid Computing Toolbox provides
built-in integration with Windows HPC Server, including Windows HPC Server 2008
R2. The platform connects directly to a user's Windows HPC Server cluster,
simplifying installation, configuration and operation of the grid. It also
integrates with the Windows HPC Server tool chain to handle administrative
tasks such as job scheduling, load balancing and usage monitoring. The Maple 14
Grid Computing Toolbox also uses the standard message passing interface (MPI)
protocol for efficient communication between nodes in the grid, and easy
integration with tools that support this protocol.
The Maple Grid Computing Toolbox allows users to run Maple
computations in parallel, taking advantage of the hardware resources they have
available. The toolbox essentially lets engineers distribute computations
across the nodes of a network of workstations, a supercomputer or the CPUs of a
multiprocessor computer. By doing so, engineers can handle computational
problems that were not doable on a single machine because of memory limitations
or because the workload would simply take too long.
The Grid Computing Toolbox is available in two
different versions: The Personal
Edition supports up to eight CPUs in the cluster while the Cluster Edition supports an unlimited
number of CPUs in the cluster.
By refining topologies and using new fluid technology, Moog's new peak sine drive controller increases available power without increasing controller volume.
Lantronix Inc. has expanded its line of controllers for sensor networks with the release of a rugged controller that improves management of automation systems used in a number of industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, and chemicals.
Inspired by the hooks a parasitic worm uses to penetrate its host's intestines, the Karp Lab has invented a flexible adhesive patch covered with microneedles that adheres well to wet, soft tissues, but doesn't cause damage when removed.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
