Right or wrong, we still believe that we live in a world where traditional HPC simulation and modeling at high precision matters more than mashing up the sum total of human knowledge and mixing with the digital exhaust of our lives to create a globe-spanning automation that will leave us all with very little to do and a commensurate amount of wealth and power to show for it. …
The National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, one of the key facilities of the US Department of Energy that drives supercomputing innovation and that spends big bucks so at least a few vendors will design and build them, has opened up the bidding on its future NERSC-10 exascale-class supercomputer. …
Nearly all non-classified supercomputers are being touted as “AI supercomputers” with the favor falling to reporting FP16 performance numbers alongside traditional FP64 HPC figures. …
