Abstract
The Modular Supercomputing Architecture (MSA) is a system design that orchestrates heterogeneous computer resources (CPUs, GPUs, many-core accelerators, disruptive technologies, etc.) at system-level, organizing them in compute modules. Modules are clusters of potentially large size, each configured with a specific type of user requirement in mind. The different modules are interconnected via a high-speed network, and a common software stack brings all modules together creating a unique machine. The MSA aims at supporting a large diversity of applications and has been developed at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) through the EU-funded DEEP projects.
