Abstract

Visualization and Acceleration are two key segments of the compute-intensive applications market

today. This technology brief provides an overview of Visualization and Acceleration technologies and

products for industry-standard servers and their primary applications areas. It describes the features

that are being designed into HP ProLiant servers to support Acceleration and Visualization products,

and it describes the ongoing qualification and testing efforts undertaken at HP to ensure that these

products provide robust and optimized solutions when used with HP ProLiant servers. This paper is

intended for IT professionals who are aware of Visualization and Acceleration technologies and are

potentially interested in either using or developing compute-intensive solutions that employ them.

Visualization products are designed specifically to speed up graphics-based calculations. They are the

next step beyond the smaller graphics engines found on many graphics cards today. Visualization

products are often referred to as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).

Accelerators are intended to speed up the processing of math calculations in general, not just

graphics calculations. Many accelerator products are re-purposed GPU's that have added a front-end

Applications Program Interface (API) and development system for programming mathematics-intensive

applications.

Visualization is a general term for applications that process and render large amounts of data into a

graphically displayed format using modern graphics controllers.

At the heart of all modern graphics controllers are GPU's, processor chips that are specifically

designed to perform the complex mathematics required for rendering 3D graphics. Visualization

applications typically use one of two major graphics APIs, Microsoft DirectX or OpenGL, to program

the graphics commands that are processed by the GPUs to generate screen images.

The 3D graphics rendering involved in visualization applications is a process that lends itself well to

being parallelized, and GPU's typically consist of many processor cores that operate in parallel to

perform the millions of graphics operations involved in the rendering process. Today's high-end

graphics processors for visualization applications are really the professional counterparts of the

graphics cards used in consumer applications such as PC gaming. These graphics cards feature GPUs

that may contain several hundred separate processor cores on a single chip and are capable of

executing hundreds of millions graphics operations per second.
