Hewlett Packard Enterprise PE has a long history in supercomputing, with efforts like its Apollo family of systems aimed at data-intensive workloads like HPC, data analytics, and storage, and its $275 million acquisition in 2016 of SGI to help expand its presence in HPC. …
It has taken eight years and $303 million in seed and three rounds of venture funding, but NextSilicon is today delivering several incarnations of its 64-bit dataflow engine, called Maverick-2, which was revealed this time last year when the company dropped out of stealth mode. …
In the basement of Connecticut’s Beneski Museum of Natural History sit the fossilized footprints of a small, chicken-sized dinosaur. …
It has been clear for some time that Japan wants to have a certain amount of economic and technical independence when it comes to cloud computing in the Land of the Rising Sun. …
Every major economy that is not the United States or China, which has a disproportionate share of HPC national labs as well as hyperscaler and cloud builder tech titans, wants AI sovereignty a whole lot more than they ever worried about HPC simulation and modeling. …
The European Union cannot practically declare its independence from Nvidia GPUs any more than any other nation can at this point. …
Right or wrong, we still believe that we live in a world where traditional HPC simulation and modeling at high precision matters more than mashing up the sum total of human knowledge and mixing with the digital exhaust of our lives to create a globe-spanning automation that will leave us all with very little to do and a commensurate amount of wealth and power to show for it. …
While the world continues to fixate on AI, there are still plenty of high performance computing workloads that need doing and a speedup to any one part can have a big impact, whether it be computational fluid dynamics, material analysis, or something else. …
The newest of the exascale-class supercomputer to be profiled in the Top500 rankings in the June list is the long-awaited “Jupiter” system at Forschungszentrum Jülich facility in Germany. …
The International Super Computing 2025 conference is going on this week in Hamburg, Germany and is celebrating its 40th anniversary. …
