The latest list of the world’s top 500 floppiest supercomputers was released this week and the biggest news to report is that there is almost no news to report. …
The datacenter business at Nvidia hit a rough patch a little less than a year ago, but it is starting to pick up again after a few quarters of declines and may soon be in positive growth territory. …
There are many good processors out there, but there are few that are excellent and elegant inasmuch as they are co-designed for specific workloads and then do them very well. …
When you are always looking for what platform architecture will be mainstream, you have to look at what those on the bleeding edge are doing to see what the leading edge might do, which in turn tells you what everyone else might eventually do. …
Arm Holdings has announced that the next revision of its ArmV8-A architecture will include support for bfloat16, a floating point format that is increasingly being used to accelerate machine learning applications. …
If you were expecting Nvidia to start talking about its future “Ampere” or “Einstein” GPUs for Tesla accelerated computing soon just because AMD is getting ready to roll out “Navi” GPUs next year and Intel is working on its Xe GPU cards for delivery next year, too, you are going to have to wait a bit longer. …
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. …
Nvidia’s DGX platforms are powerhouses for training neural networks, offering up to 2 petaflops of peak machine learning performance. …
In 1985, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) established IEEE 754, a standard for floating point formats and arithmetic that would become the model for practically all FP hardware and software for the next 30 years. …
