Keynote: Distribute One Billion

We live in a digital world estimated to host around 4 billion Internet users and 10 billion of mobile connections generating 2.5 billion billion of data every day. Managing and extracting value from this sheer amount of raw data requires deep software analysis tools on massive distributed and parallel computing infrastructures aggregating billions of cores and threads. The talk gives an overview of the research activities at the University of Klagenfurt, Austria, on   optimising system software support for extreme-scale data processing     applications, with focus on scientific simulations, social media and massively multiplayer online games.
