| ECLIPSE Parallel splits a single simulation run into many smaller computations that are each processed by individual processors reducing the time taken to run any given simulation. Numerical computations for reservoir simulation are spread over many Intel Itanium 2 processors, all controlled by a Linux cluster head node. ECLIPSE Parallel automatically manages this process to maximise the available processing power and seamlessly recompiles the results into a single view.
The effect of the Intel technology is to boost instruction throughput and deliver outstanding performance at a very affordable price. It also provides headroom and flexibility to scale for optimum functionality and return on investment as demand grows.
