Real-World HPC Gets the Benchmark It Deserves
While nothing can beat the notoriety of the long-standing LINPACK benchmark, the metric by which supercomputer performance is gauged, there is ample room for a more practical measure. …

There has been talk and cajoling and rumor for years that GPU juggernaut Nvidia would jump into the Arm server CPU chip arena once again and actually deliver a product that has unique differentiation and a compelling value proposition, particularly for hybrid CPU-GPU compute complexes. …
AMD has been on such a run with its future server CPUs and server GPUs in the supercomputer market, taking down big deals for big machines coming later this year and out into 2023, that we might forget sometimes that there are many more deals to be done and that neither Intel nor Nvidia are inactive when it comes to trying to get their compute engines into upper echelon machines. …
The trade war between the United States and China is not just a top-down political and economic one, but also a technical one. …
Antonio Peña, senior researcher at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, and his team in Spain have demonstrated how – without code modification – large data centers can increase application performance while saving megawatts of power per day plus run 100X to 10,000X larger AI inference jobs that can handle encrypted data. …
It happens all the time. There is a performance problem, and everyone blames the network. …
The drive toward exascale computing is giving researchers the largest HPC systems ever built, yet key bottlenecks persist: More memory to accommodate larger datasets, persistent memory for storing data on the memory bus instead of drives, and the lowest power consumption possible. …
Welcome to Next Platform TV for today, July 7, 2020.
We are featuring an in-depth interview with Dr. …
A wide-ranging show for today Wednesday, June 24, with emphasis first on the top supercomputing rankings and companion benchmarks around AI performance and HPC efficiency with Dr. …
There is a constant push and pull between budget and architecture in supercomputing, and the passing of time has not made anyone’s arms tired as yet on both sides of the bargaining table. …
