The GPU has become a standard platform for accelerating high performance computing workloads, at least for those that have had their code tweaked to support acceleration at all. …
Nvidia co-founder and chief executive officer, Jensen Huang, would be the first one to tell you that the graphics chip maker was an unintended innovator in supercomputing, that what the engineers who created the first Nvidia GPUs were really trying to do was enable 3D video games. …
High performance computing (HPC) enables organizations to work more quickly and effectively than traditional compute platforms—but that might not be enough to succeed in today’s evolving digital marketplace. …

All the shiny and zippy hardware in the world is meaningless without software, and that software can only go mainstream if it is easy to use. …
In Supercomputing Conference (SC) years past, chipmaker Intel has always come forth with a strong story, either as an enabling processor or co-processor force, or more recently, as a prime contractor for a leading-class national lab supercomputer. …
While a lot of people focus on the floating point and integer processing architectures of various kinds of compute engines, we are spending more and more of our time looking at memory hierarchies and interconnect hierarchies. …
If you want to take on Nvidia on its home turf of AI processing, then you had better bring more than your A game. …
If you handle hundreds of trillions of AI model executions per day, and are going to change that by one or two orders of magnitude as GenAI goes mainstream, you are going to need GPUs. …
