HP Accelerator Program and qualified visualization and acceleration
products
The HP Scalable Computing and Infrastructure (SCI) group is responsible for driving the HP
Accelerator Program. The HP Accelerator Program is an, on-going, hands-on effort. Its purpose is to
investigate various acceleration technologies for high performance computing and benchmark them to
determine which ones are most beneficial for HP customers. As part of this program, the SCI group is
also responsible for qualifying various Acceleration products with HP ProLiant servers. The list of
products that have been qualified with the HP ProLiant servers is shown in Table 3.
