AWS and Arm Demonstrate Electronic Design Automation in the Cloud

Seattle – Amazon Web Services has announced that Arm, a global leader in semiconductor design and silicon intellectual property development and licensing, will leverage AWS for its cloud use, including the vast majority of its electronic design automation (EDA) workloads. Arm is migrating EDA workloads to AWS, leveraging AWS Graviton2-based instances (powered by Arm Neoverse […]

At Virtual SC20: An Update on the Fraunhofer Institute’s Carme, Where HPC Meets Interactive Machine Learning

At Virtual SC20, we spent time with Philipp Reusch, Scientific Assistant at Fraunhofer ITWM in Kaiserslautern, Germany. Reusch is closely involved in the development for the institute’s Carme (“kar-mee”), a framework to manage resources for multiple users running interactive AI jobs on a cluster of (GPU) compute nodes. Carme, by the way, is the name […]

Arm-based ‘Ookami’ Supercomputer Installed at Stony Brook

The Institute for Advanced Computational Science (IACS) at Stony Brook University has installed an HPC system employing the same processor technology as the world’s top-ranked supercomputer, the Fugaku system at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science in Japan. Available to researchers as a testbed, Ookami (which means wolf in Japanese) is run by IACS in […]

The Hyperion-insideHPC Interviews: Simon Burbridge Gives ARM a Hand – ‘Maybe We Don’t Need to Have Accelerators’

At this point in the career of HPC luminary Simon Burbridge of the University of Bristol, he’s focused on HPC system design based on ARM-designed processors. Citing the world’s top ranked supercomputer, Japan’s Fugaku, Burbridge says in this interview: “If you redesign your CPUs to have the capability of doing the amount of math that you need and if you have, for example, the memory bandwidth to get those vectors and matrices in and out of the memory, then why wouldn’t they be better than a GPU?”

Arm and DARPA Announce 3-Year Development Agreement
