This book brings a thorough explanation on the path needed to use
cloud computing technologies to run High-Performance Computing
(HPC) applications. Besides presenting the motivation behind moving
HPC applications to the cloud, it covers both essential and
advanced issues on this topic such as deploying HPC applications
and infrastructures, designing cloud-friendly HPC applications, and
optimizing a provisioned cloud infrastructure to run this family of
applications. Additionally, this book also describes the best
practices to maintain and keep running HPC applications in the
cloud by employing fault tolerance techniques and avoiding resource
wastage. Â To give practical meaning to topics covered in
this book, it brings some case studies where HPC applications, used
in relevant scientific areas like Bioinformatics and Oil and Gas
industry were moved to the cloud. Moreover, it also discusses how
to train deep learning models in the cloud elucidating the key
components and aspects necessary to train these models via
different types of services offered by cloud providers. Despite the
vast bibliography about cloud computing and HPC, to the best of our
knowledge, no existing manuscript has comprehensively covered these
topics and discussed the steps, methods and strategies to execute
HPC applications in clouds. Therefore, we believe this title is
useful for IT professionals and students and researchers interested
in cutting-edge technologies, concepts, and insights focusing on
the use of cloud technologies to run HPC applications.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Second Latin American
Conference on High Performance Computing, CARLA 2015, a joint
conference of the High-Performance Computing Latin America
Community, HPCLATAM, and the Conferencia Latino Americana de
Computacion de Alto Rendimiento, CLCAR, held in Petropolis, Brazil,
in August 2015. The 11 papers presented in this volume were
carefully reviewed and selected from 17 submissions. They were
organized in topical sections named: grid and cloud computing; GPU
& MIC Computing: methods, libraries and applications; and
scientific computing applications.
This book constitutes the Final Report of COST Action 279, Analysis
and DesignofAdvancedMultiserviceNetworkssupportingMultimedia,
Mobility, andInterworking, a guided tour of the state-of-the-art
work on diverse aspects of modern telecommunications networks
design developed within this Action during the four years of its
operation, started on July 1, 2001, and ended on June 30, 2005. As
stated in its founding charter, its Memorandum of Understanding,
the work area of COST 279 is the analysis, design, and control
aspects of prese- day networks-quite a wide scope. Behind the
unifying fac, ade put on by the Internet Protocol (IP) network
layer, todays networks hide a mess of hete- geneity: heterogeneity
at the level of applications, both concerning the traf?c they
produce and the network Quality of Service (QoS) they require, and
h- erogeneity at the level of network component subsystems, in
particular an - creasingly important mobile/wireless access
segment. A common ground for the treatment of this disparate set of
topics was given by the strong meth- ological component contained
in the approach followed in COST 279, with importance placed on the
development and application, whenever possible, of analytical
techniques and models for the mathematical understanding of the
systems under study. The results expected from the Action ranged
thus from mathematical models and algorithms as entities of own
interest to the und- standing of systembehavior via their
application."

Das Buch geht der Fragestellung nach, welche Chancen und Grenzen
sich bei Unternehmensbewertungen anhand von Multiples ergeben.
Diese Fragestellung soll aus drei verschiedenen Sichtweisen
(Analyst IB, Rating Agentur sowie strategischer Investor / Fond)
betrachtet werden. Mittels Interviews und Gesprchen mit jeweiligen
Vertretern aus der Finanzwirtschaft soll zudem ein starker
Praxisbezug gewhrleistet werden. Multiples werden bspw. bei
Aktienbewertungen und Aktienempfehlungen, Research Reports, Pitch
Books von Investment Bankern oder Road Shows von Firmen auf dem Weg
zu ihrem potentiellen IPO verwendet. Gerade Krisen wie die New
Economy Blase oder die Subprime-Krise zeigen die Wichtigkeit auf,
Bewertungsmethoden wie Multiples hinsichtlich ihrer Chancen und
Grenzen zu analysieren.
