If you think that Hewlett-Packard is disappointed about the delays in getting the memristor to market, so is a tenacious inventor who has been working at the confluence of electronics and machine learning. …
The computational capability of modern supercomputers, matched with the data handling abilities of the Hadoop framework, when done efficiently, creates a best of both worlds opportunity. …
When the National Security Agency (NSA) in the U.S. released the Accumulo project into open source territory in 2008, there were not a lot of details about the size and capability of the hardware it was running, although it is safe to say that the NSA found ways to make it scale across some of their larger machines. …
With neighbors China and Japan hosting top-tier high performance computing systems, Korea wants to put more skin in the supercomputing game with extended investments over the next five years. …
When IBM sent Zaphiris Christidis on an international assignment to China to manage the supercomputing division for climate and environment applications, he would be part of an over 50,000 strong force in China managing weather forecasting and research. …
DataDirect Networks got its start as a storage provider for media companies back in 1998, but it sold its first products in into the supercomputing base that was looking for high capacity and screaming performance. …
It has been somewhat difficult to ascertain what problems the fastest supercomputer on the planet has been chewing on since it was announced in 2013, but there are some signs that China is now pinning the machine’s mission on the future of genomics, among other areas. …
Korean auto manufacturer, Hyundai, has tapped into the top-tier U.S. Titan supercomputer, as well as other smaller systems at Oak Ridge National Lab, to cultivate key materials science breakthroughs that will decrease the weight (and up the efficient) of next-generation cars. …
Hyperscale datacenters and supercomputing centers have some of the same limits when it comes to budgets, electricity consumption, cooling, and space, so it is not much of a surprise that HPC customers are taking a hard look at some of the custom server designs created for hyperscalers. …
From its mainframes to the modern Power architectures, few companies have pushed investments into chip designs with the gusto IBM has over the years. …
