At SuperComputing 2015 in Austin our network/fabric partner Mellanox announced R@CMon (Monash University) as a "HPC Centre of Excellence". A core goal of the HPC CoE is to drive the technological innovations required for the next generation (exascale) supercomputing, whilst also ensuring that such an exascale computer is relevant to modern research. R@CMon is a stand out pioneer at converging cloud, HPC and data, all of which are key to the "next generation".
