After more than two decades with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Darren Cepulis came to Arm in 2013, becoming part of the small cadre of people working in the chip designer’s high-performance computing (HPC) business. …
Living in the future, as we do now, you no longer have to expend huge amounts of capital to build a petaflops-scale supercomputer. …
It has been eight years since Arm announced its intentions to enter the server arena. …
The European Exascale System InterconNect and Storage (ExaNeSt) project has wrapped up, having completed development of its prototype system and run a series of application benchmarks on it. …
The Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe (PRACE) has selected five new small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to receive access to supercomputers and HPC expertise under its SHAPE initiative. …
While the natural habitat of HPC storage is supercomputing and enterprise datacenters, the growing popularity of edge computing means sometimes that hardware must live outside its comfort zone. …
The widening performance disparity between compute and I/O is not likely to get any better in the fast-approaching exascale era. …
High performance computing isn’t what it used to be. Performance, in particular, has become a slippery metric as a result of the design constraints of modern clustered systems. …
The San Diego Supercomputing Center is overdue for a new supercomputer and thanks to a $10 million grant from the National Science Foundation, next year it will finally get one. …
After a long wait, now we know. All three of the initial exascale-class supercomputer systems being funded by the US Department of Energy through its CORAL-2 procurement are going to be built by Cray, with that venerable maker of supercomputers being the prime contractor on two of them. …
