Disaggregated storage has become the norm in large-scale infrastructure and we expect that in 2019 those who are pushing the limits with NVMe will have quite a successful year—vendors as well as their hyperscale and high performance computing users. …
In 2018 the Leadership Computing Facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Tennessee installed Summit, the world’s most powerful supercomputer ever built, to help it break new ground in scientific research. …
Generative adversarial neural networks are the next step in deep learning evolution and while they hold great promise across several application domains, there are major challenges in both hardware and frameworks. …
“We build the most powerful and efficient computer possible and make it available to scientists based on the quality of their proposals,” says Jack Wells, director of science at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing facility in Tennessee. …
Machine learning, arguably the most interesting and successful form of artificial intelligence, only worked because of the confluence of enormous amounts of data to train models and tremendous amounts of compute to chew on that data with many-layered statistical algorithms. …
Computing power and big data are fundamental to the bioinformatic research being carried out by the Leadership Computing Facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s (ORNL) in Tennessee. …
This week we delved into a wide variety of European projects that address future needs of systems in research and industry at HiPEAC in Valencia, Spain. …
It might be a bit early to call generative adversarial networks (GANs) the next platform for AI evolution, but there is little doubt we will hear much more about this beefed up approach to deep learning over the next year and beyond. …
Memcache has become the ubiquitous way of loading objects quickly for most of the world’s largest websites and for that matter, for plenty of smaller enterprises that need to store and retrieve other objects from dense data stores. …
With a timeline to early production sometime in the next decade (if not longer), the business model for quantum computing has been nebulous from the beginning. …
