This session will include the following subject(s):

Scheduler for HPC with OpenStack:

There is a strong interest in HPC with OpenStack. As the current scheduler is not adequate to handle scheduling needs for HPC, we (USC-ISI) are working on a scheduler for HPC with OpenStack. We will show progress so far and our prototype scheduler including proximity scheduler. We will get feedback on them, understand OpenStack HPC community's need, and discuss future directions.

HPC for OpenStack:

The OpenStack HPC community is growing with popular support for baremetal provisioning, heterogeneous scheduling, and upcoming accelerator support. We'll first briefly describe the current state of HPC in OpenStack. This will be followed by an open discussion about the features that the community is looking for. High performance networking, GPU support in Xen, scheduler and management extensions, and other community-requested features are all options.

We'll continue the discussions from previous Design Summits and hash out a plan for Grizzly and beyond.
