Techila

Techila middleware offers the easiest way to speed up your R code. In the following example see the impact of 200 CPU cores of Windows Azure cloud platform power. This video demonstrates distributing heavy stochastic R script structures with the Cloudfor method. Speed up R code linear relative to cloud capacity.

Modelling, simulation, optimisation and data-analysis applications often spend a great part of their running times in for loop structures. Techila enables automatic distribution of these structures without the complexity: You can accelerate a R application without specialist skills. Fast R programming made easy!

Techila is the missing link between applications and the capacity of the clouds. If you use R programming language, statistics, Monte Carlo methods, stochastic simulation based optimization, or data analysis, the opportunity of using Techila and Azure will be easily rewarded in time and resource savings.

The applications of next generation high-performance computing are not limited to scientific computing. The Techila SDK offers developers open Application Programming Interfaces (API), which developers can use to enable cloud power to any application easily and securely.

A great example of applications, which can benefit of Techila-enabled speed and ease of use is rendering. Blender, LuxRender, 3ds Max, YafaRay are tools, which you can find on every designer’s desk. You can use Techila to get super fast 3D animation rendering directly to your Blender. Techila connects your renderer to the infinite capacity of Windows Azure compute instances, providing shielding from the complexity, and you can set up your own on-demand renderfarm in the cloud to power your projects.

Techila middleware enables powering new and existing application with the infinite capacity of cloud. Techila provides automatic distribution of workloads with an unparalleled experience and shielding from complexity. Blender in cloud, enabled by Techila, brings HPC to every designer’s desk.

Techila Technologies and Microsoft announce a promotional offer to Universities and Academia, including free Techila HPC Middleware to enable speeding up applications with the power of Windows Azure cloud platform.

This limited-time offer is valid until end of June 2012, and it gives academic users an opportunity to evaluate and experience the benefits of next generation distributed computing to their research, innovation and development, without any additional software license costs. You will pay only for the Windows Azure service. Unlike any other HPC middleware solutions, Techila is easy to integrate, secure and it provides shielding from complexity. This makes HPC available also to users and applications, which have not been able to use HPC before.

“We will need more computing power and capacity in the future. We need also to understand the different nature of different projects. To meet the growing on demand requirements of computing capacity – we need to be open and ensure that we have efficient utilization models available for the future.

Cloud services like the Windows Azure cloud have unforeseen amounts of capacity available and Techila’s middleware technology is able to utilize Windows Azure’s cloud computing capacity seamlessly.” – Markus Ekman, CIO, SVP Information Management, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland

Using Techila does not require learning any new tools. Your application can be written in any of the commonly used computational languages or environments you are already familiar with: MATLAB, R analytics language, C/C++, .NET, Java, Python, Perl,… The Techila middleware connects your applications automatically to the computing capacity available in the Cloud. The automatic distribution of workloads enabled by the Techila Middleware can speed up new and existing stochastic applications with the capacity of Windows Azure Cloud Platform without limits.

The Northeastern University in Boston uses the middleware technology by Techila to speed up the study of vibration of “cable networks” used bridges.

The research project gains benefits of the Techila solution especially on large samples. Techila also enables scaling of the computational time proportionally with the size of the computing infrastructure.

Cable networks are structures, which consist of inclined stays in Cable Stayed Bridges. These are employed to reduce susceptibility of the inclined stays to wind hazards on long-span bridges. The structures may get damaged over time, risking the safety of the bridge.

Cross-ties are widely used for mitigation purposes. The research team at the Northeastern University develops a framework for the analysis and prediction of oscillations on cable networks in the presence of stochastic disturbances. The motivation for this research comes from damages, which have been reported to the cross-ties on Fred Hartman Bridge. The goal of this research and development is to enable prediction of similar damages.
