European Leadership in HPC, Big Data, and AI in Weather and Climate Prediction
June 14, 2019 by
Dr. Peter Bauer from ECMWF gave this talk at the HiPEAC’s Computing Systems Week in Edinburgh. “Meeting the future requirements for forecast reliability and timeliness needs 100-1000 times bigger high-performance computing and data management resources than today – towards what’s generally called ‘exascale’. To meet these needs, the weather and climate prediction community is undergoing one of its biggest revolutions since its foundation in the early 20th century.”
Advancing Fusion Science with CGYRO using GPU-based Leadership Systems
June 4, 2019 by
Jeff Candy and Igor Sfiligoi from General Atomics gave this talk at the GPU Technology Conference. “Gyrokinetic simulations are one of the most useful tools for understanding fusion science. We’ll explain how we designed and implemented CGYRO to make good use of the tens of thousands of GPUs on such systems, which provide simulations that bring us closer to fusion as an abundant clean energy source. We’ll also share benchmarking results of both CPU- and GPU-Based systems.”
