挑战
斯克里普斯研究所 (TSRI) 是世界上最大的私营非营利生物医学研究机构,在为其科学家完成计算周期方面面临着重大挑战。该研究所的研究涉及免疫学、分子生物学、细胞生物学、化学、神经科学、自身免疫性疾病、心血管疾病和癌症,属于高度计算密集型。 TSRI 的研究计算部门运营三个高性能计算 (HPC) 平台来提供科学家所需的计算周期。然而,管理这些平台上的工作负载并为科学家提供无缝界面是一项重大挑战。该研究所需要一种解决方案,能够处理最多 500 个帐户持有用户的工作负载管理,其中 75-100 个是最活跃的,而不需要大量支持。
解决方案
TSRI 实施了 Altair 的 PBS Professional 软件,为所有三种计算环境中的用户提供一致的工作负载管理基础架构。 PBS Professional 为用户处理工作负载管理,为集群提供统一的界面。该软件是一个成熟、稳定的产品,不需要大量的支持。它的部署无需进行大量自定义,并且基本上开箱即用。该软件还使 TSRI 能够控制使用的优先级,这一点至关重要,因为每个 TSRI 调查员本质上都是独立承包商,负责获得资助以支持研究项目。研究人员使用网页界面和 PBS Professional 来访问根据其需求和每个平台当前使用水平选择的平台。

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

Revolutionizing Construction Equipment Rental: A Case Study on ProsRent and ENO8
ProsRent, a startup that won the 'Best Financial Opportunity' and 'Best Pitch' at CodeLaunch 2016, aimed to revolutionize the way construction professionals source and rent heavy equipment. In the construction industry, project managers and contractors typically rent heavy equipment from supply companies. However, predicting inventory can be challenging, and finding the required equipment at the right time and place can be a hassle. If the preferred vendor doesn't have the required equipment, it results in wasted time and money in searching for it, often leading to higher costs due to non-preferred rates and increased delivery costs if the vendor is located far from the job site. Suppliers, on the other hand, desired access to a wider base of trusted renters that they didn't have to vet themselves and wanted to offer dynamic rental pricing based on demand and availability in their market. ProsRent's challenge was to produce a minimum viable product that was fast and first to market but also strong enough to engender loyalty and repeat business from the target market.
