Waiting for a simulation to complete before visualizing the results is often an unappealing prospect for researchers. …
We are pleased to announce that the first book from Next Platform Press, titled “The State of HPC Cloud: 2016 Edition,” is complete. …
In the course of this three-part series on the challenges and opportunities for enterprise machine learning, we have worked to define the landscape and ecosystem for these workloads in large-scale business settings and have taken an in-depth look at some of the roadblocks on the path to more mainstream machine learning applications. …
In part one of this series last week, we discussed the emerging ecosystem of machine learning applications and what promise those portend. …
The chip industry is quickly reaching the limits of traditional lithography in its effort to cram more transistors onto a piece of silicon at a pace consistent with Moore’s Law. …
For a topic that generates so much interest, it is surprisingly difficult to find a concise definition of machine learning that satisfies everyone. …
Chip design firm ARM is getting into the cloud business. The company whose designs power almost all of the world’s cell phones, has steadily pushed its designs into new ventures, including servers, as we have covered extensively. …
Over the last couple of years, we have been watching how burst buffers might be deployed at some of the world’s largest supercomputer sites. …
Systems built from commodity hardware such as servers, desktops and laptops often contain so-called general-purpose processors (CPUs)—processors that specialize in doing many different things reasonably well. …
