Significant business and architectural changes can happen with 10X improvements, but the real milestones upon which we measure progress in computer science, whether it is for compute, storage, or networking, come at the 1,000X transitions. …
The nexus of traditional high performance computing and artificial intelligence is a fact, not a theory, and the exascale-class machinery installed in the United States, Europe, China, and Japan will be a showcase for how these two powerful simulation and analytical prediction techniques can be brought together in many different ways. …
In a post Moore’s Law world, domain specific hardware is becoming more common. …
Normally, when we look at a system, we think from the compute engines at a very fine detail and then work our way out across the intricacies of the nodes and then the interconnect and software stack that scales it across the nodes into a distributed computing platform. …
When it comes to application acceleration, having a deep understanding of the complex algorithms that underly most HPC and AI applications is perhaps the most important thing that can be brought to bear. …
There are not many companies left on Earth that can field an exascale-class supercomputer. …
The IT industry is at the doorstep of the long-awaited exascale era, which promises massive systems that can run at least one exaflops, or a quintillion (a billion billion) calculations per second, at 64-bit precision and a lot more than that at lower precision and even more using low-precision integer data pumped through their vector and matrix engines. …
PAID FEATURE In October 2021, in an incident lasting more than six hours, Facebook disappeared from the Internet. …
There are no greater bragging rights in supercomputing than those that come with top ten listing on the bi-annual list of the world’s most powerful systems – the Top500. …
