“NodeH” is the unit for pricing. 1 NodeH is equivalent to 1 nodefor 1 hour.
For example, if you pay $102, you can use 100 nodes
for 1 hour, or 1 node for 100 hours.
Each node has 2 Intel Xeon processors (28 cores) and 4
NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPUs, with 256GB Memory.

Detailed analyses of target scattering and propagation structure for onboard radar by FDTD method
Okugi Tomokazu, Yamada Hideyuki, Yamamoto Masashi, Yamamoto Yasunori (Mazda Motor Corporation)

TSUBAME3.0, a multi-GPU supercomputer now enables you to execute radio wave propagation analyses byFDTD method for a broad spatial area within realistic calculation time, which was impossible before. The study
aims to explore possibilities of utilizing radio wave diffraction for detecting pedestrians behind a wall, a vehicle orsomething through analyzing propagation phenomena
around pedestrians and an object hiding them. The simulation analyses were conducted with a 24GHz quasi-millimeter wave radar and a target that is a low reflecting cylinder (φ200mm) equivalent to a pedestrian. A wall wassettled to hide the target from the antenna.
It was observed that after radio waves transmitted fromthe radar antenna were diffracted by the wall, they reflected several times between the wall and the target andthen returned to the antenna. That means the radar antenna could receive the radio waves returning from thetarget behind the wall. It was found that the diffracted
waves could be promising for detecting pedestrians
behind a wall, a vehicle or something.
