University of California at Berkeley and IBM to construct a new digital newspapers center
University of California, San Diego (UCSD) researchers today announced plans to use the most sophisticated calculation all over the world, one server - IBM mainframe Systemz digital media to build a new campus center, to develop the next generation of virtual worlds, multiplayer online high-fidelity digital games and movies. IBM Shared University Research Grants through the project (SUR), the University of California at San Diego to help create the next generation of new digital media center. In addition to a variety of peripheral equipment and auxiliary support, IBM's award also includes the company uses the latest Cell Broadband Engine (Cell / BE) of enterprise-class server Systemz10EC.
IBM Systems and Technology Division, IBM Fellow, vice leader and BernieMeyerson said: "The scholars will be adept to up-to-date by travelling to IBM's blended computing schemes, seem blazing pace and mighty functions. Now the University of California, San Diego can relish the scholars conceived to rendezvous the next lifetime of virtual world submissions of security characteristics and 'special engine' (specialtyengines), to support the mass of concurrent users simultaneously share the identical environment. "
University of California, San Diego, Professor of Visual Arts SheldonBrown said: "We wish to facilitate the development of the next lifetime of digital media.through substantially enrich the client know-how of virtual worlds, we accept as factual that there will be sport and videos for example such as digital newspapers creation and the Internet distributed untested environment. With the virtual world and digital movies perfection of the visual creative pursuits and the submission of more complicated heritage, the development of these two classes will be more integration and more diverse. "
Brown and his UCSD Experimental Game Lab Team member will be IBMSystemz server, based on the development of the Museum of Brown configure the "city expansion (ScalableCity)", to create and run a virtual world, and can then gradually expand into the potential for thousands of concurrent 7 24 hours the user experience of the environment. And "Second Life," "The Sims" and other games as well as the "World of Warcraft" This large-scale online multiplayer role-playing game compared to, the user can feel a richer visual experience, a diversified range of motion behavior of the virtual world.
At present, even though the virtual world carries hundreds of thousands of users and target audience, but the lack of computing power is limited by the user experience all this. When the user in the virtual world to another region, are in fact cluster in the calculation of the conversion to the other server nodes, so their overall experience of the virtual world will become fragmented.
Brown said, IBM mainframe Systemz completely rendezvous the future desires of the virtual world. Deal with the mass of the scheme capability and IBMCell / BE multi-processor expertise, a blend of intensive computing power, you can convey real-time interaction for the client of the virtual world experience.
Brown farther explained: "We can put IBM mainframe as a cluster of numerous 100 computers, you can put it as a super computer. We can deal with the scope for of storage and a balanced optimization, to change the virtual the world to understanding the configuration and status. "
Although the IBM mainframe can upgrade the virtual world and the real-time simulation, but the user experience or because of their use to access the virtual world of the personal computer (that is, the so-called "client-side) and be limited. To this end, the University of California, San Diego Researchers are using multi-core processors for client computing experiment, with a view to seeking a solution to this problem for the experiment, including a multi-core processor, code-named Larrabee of Intel chips, the product will be early in 2010 together with the processor IBMCell market. In addition, Brown also worked with three other universities have been the National Science Foundation (NationalScienceFoundation) support for the preparation of the hybrid multi-core computing research center study.
"Home of a computer piece was implanted in some processor-intensive, as if set 4 Units, Units 8, 16 and even 32 on a computer, the computer has become a strong computing capacity." Brown said, "but It in addition demanded to enhance the prevailing computing power of 60 times, only adequate to assure real-time to give users with the virtual world experience. Faced with this circumstances, we should not turn a visually ruined eye and sanction the customer to hold back for this. "
Brown's group will extend to discover the use of high bandwidth facts and numbers lines to the backbone of the new ways to get access to the network. They are now employed with Peking University to study at San Diego and Beijing together visit the virtual world technology.
University of California, San Diego expect to captivate other partners to be competent to add the new distribute of the next current inhabitants of digital broadcasting examine center. Brown said: "The most rudimentary way, we ought presume that the next current inhabitants of digital broadcasting will be the development. Calculations and the minimal structure of a greatest advance in assorted configurations will act on prospects for the development of digital media? Virtual world and the diagram is the two new cinemas of digital media. We can be both unconnected of each other as separate people, but in addition can be employed as integration, a aggregation of interrelated. "
At the center was first established, will be based on the existing relationship with the Hollywood studios and the calculation and the Arts Research Center (CRCA), California Association of Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2) and San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) for their support, focusing on the development of a new platform for digital film production. IBM mainframe is now placed in the SDSC, a special light through a direct channel to connect to the digital cinema equipment Calit2, and the adoption of high-bandwidth connection to the Internet and global optical fiber network.
As super computing and high-bandwidth fiber-optic mesh of the pioneers of the area, the California Association of Telecommunications and Information Technology Director LarrySmarr said: "As the newspapers and the communal natural environment, has a huge client of the virtual world is evolving more and more important. Calit2 will CineGrid through tasks, is pledged to pioneering digital cinema. We accept as factual that the Center will be a important deepening of the diverse kinds of digital newspapers art practice. "
San Diego Supercomputer Center FranBerman Officer, said: "Technology and the boundaries between art is step-by-step distorted, to 'the town can be expanded (ScalabelCity)' for the collaborative representing the natural environment affirms this trend. We are very satisfied that the Center Units be adept to owner is established here, but furthermore very respected to be adept to take part in this significant project. "
Brown said: "I will use this virtual world as the development of ultra-high-fidelity digital movies stage, through the movie, groups, actors and even one by one implementation, the virtual prototype of the world movies will supply a new way of creation. Film output is furthermore will become more fast and more flexible. - 18758
