SUMMARY:Climate and Environmental Monitoring with the JASMIN Supercomputer
DESCRIPTION:\nJonathan Churchill\, Scientific Computing Dept.\, STFC\nJASMI
 N is a “super data” computer and big data analysis platform devoted to
  climate and environmental modelling and earth observation data analysis. 
 The hardware pushes the boundaries of networking equipment to deliver worl
 d-leading support for environmental scientists. This talk will discuss the
  nature of JASMIN and the work which it supports\, including climate chang
 e prediction and tracking the effects of natural catastrophes\, such as vo
 lcanic eruptions.\nBio:\nAfter a 20+ year career in the Semiconductor busi
 ness designing high performance SRAMs and their associated CAD systems\, J
 onathan joined STFC in 2006 focusing on HPC (High Performance Computing) s
 ystems. In the last 8 years he has been responsible for designing the JASM
 IN system architecture\, directing the procurement programme (bringing in 
 over £20M of government investment)\, and managing systems operations. He
  has taken it to today’s deployment of 70 racks\, containing 45PB of hig
 h performance storage attached to cloud and physical HPC.\n\nJonathan is t
 he named author on 15 US and UK patents. He holds a MSc Computer Science d
 egree from Oxford and an M.Eng Microelectronics from Durham.
