Open source software: a powerful model for inspiring imagination

Abstract

Over the past decade, commodity computing and Linux have helped to significantly transform supercomputing. Fueled by the open source model, collaboration of the supercomputing community has had far reaching affects on enterprise computing. In his talk, Matthew Szulik (Chairman and CEO of Red Hat) will draw parallels between open source trends in supercomputing and the advancement of enterprise computing. As we look ahead, he will discuss how meeting the future's computing challenges will require faster innovation driven by better collaboration.
