There are plenty of things that the members of the high performance community do not agree on, there is a growing consensus that machine learning applications will at least in some way be part of the workflow at HPC centers that do traditional simulation and modeling. …
It is difficult to shed a tear for Moore’s Law when there are so many interesting architectural distractions on the systems horizon. …
It is a good time to be the maker of a machine that excels in large-scale optimization problems for cybersecurity and defense. …
The race is on to carve a path to efficient extreme-scale machines in the next five years but existing processing approaches fall far short of the efficiency and performance targets required. …
Clustering together commodity servers has allowed the economies of scale that enable large-scale cloud computing, but as we look to the future of big infrastructure beyond Moore’s Law, how might bleeding edge technologies capture similar share and mass production? …
As was the case over seven decades ago in the early days of digital computing – when the switch at the heart of the system was a vacuum tube, not even a transistor – some of the smartest mathematicians and information theorists today are driving the development of quantum computers, trying to figure out the best physical components to use to run complex algorithms. …
