Actually here's a better article from the Register
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/04/06/nvidia_gtc_2016/


If we could put together a couple of nodes linked up with the NVLink we could 
approach the medical imaging group at Kings
And install it as a Proof of Concept.
Their work can basically use as many GPUs as they can get.
They were interested in the Mellanox GPUdirect stuff - accessing GPUs over 
Infiniband.
This NVlink stuff might be even better for them.
It would be a good exemplar project, and maybe we get some publicity from it?

I guess that Nvidia would have to provide a few cards and the interconnect, and 
we would have to find two compatible servers!
