There has been a lot more churn on the November Top500 supercomputer rankings that is the talk of the SC24 conference in Atlanta this week than there was in the list that came out in June at the ISC24 conference in Hamburg, Germany back in May, and there are some interesting developments in the new machinery that is being installed. …
If you stare at something for a little bit of time and let your mind wander, you can think of a new way to analyze something that you have looked at a bunch of times. …
If high bandwidth memory was widely available and we had cheap and reliable fusion power, there never would have been a move to use GPU and other compute engines as vector and matrix math offload engines. …
The most exciting thing about the Top500 rankings of supercomputers that come out each June and November is not who is on the top of the list. …
The interesting thing about the June 2023 rankings of the world’s most powerful supercomputers is not how it really has not changed all that much in the past six months, or that the June list is coming out in May. …
It’s fall, so that means it is the annual Super Computing conference that has been held in the United States by the Association for Computing Machinery and the IEEE Computer Society since 1989. …
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. …
Let’s just cut right to the chase scene. The latest Top500 ranking of supercomputers, announced today at the SC21 supercomputing conference being held in St Louis, needed the excitement of an actual 1 exaflops sustained performance machine running the High Performance Linpack benchmark at 64-bit precision. …
As we head toward the annual Supercomputing Conference season we wanted to take a moment for a level-set on exascale. …
