There are so many great tech ideas, but how do you assess which ones will impact HPC? How do we filter out hype? In a new, future looking paper entitled “Myths and Legends in High-Performance Computing,” Satoshi Matsuoka, Jens Domke, Mohamed Wahib, Aleksandr Drozd, and Torsten Hoefler tackle 12 important topics, from major technology areas to specific capabilities and applications in HPC systems to come. In this episode, we talk with Satoshi and Torsten (one of them in an airport) about their paper, which helps formulate the right questions and initiates important discussion points by posing the topics as myths and legends in an enjoyable and humorous paper.

Silicon Mechanics Delivers 10x HPC Run Time Boost for Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation
January 30, 2023 by
[SPONSORED CONTENT] In biomedical research it’s accelerate or perish. Drug discovery is a trial-and-error process driven by simulations – faster simulations, enabled by compute- and data-intensive technologies, mean more runs in less time, resulting in errors identified and solutions achieved. Established in 1946, the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation is a nonprofit research institute with more than 450 staff and over 50 labs studying cancer, heart disease, autoimmune disorders and aging-related diseases. OMRF discoveries led to the first, U.S.-approved therapy targeting sickle cell disease and the first approved treatment for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, an autoimmune disease. The foundation’s research is enabled in part by advanced technology – accelerated clusters and high-performance data storage that support workloads fueled by massive data sets.
@HPCpodcast: Who’s Winning the High-Stakes U.S-China AI Race?
January 25, 2023 by
If you’re concerned about the advanced chip competition between the U.S. and China – and who isn’t? – then this week’s @HPCpodcast guest offers much food for thought. Handel Jones, founder and CEO of the International Business Strategies consulting firm, is the author of a new book, WHEN AI RULES THE WORLD: China, The U.S., And The Race To Control A Smart Planet. He contends that China is winning the AI race in part because the leadership of the PRC regime is more competent and technically astute than some in the West may think.
