[SPONSORED GUEST ARTICLE] Geopolitical change is having tectonic impact on the global manufacturing industry. In the U.S., western Europe and other industrialized countries, there is growing emphasis on “manufacturing repatriation,” or reshoring of factory production. With this comes the need for new strategies leveraging data analytics, machine learning, robotics and advanced design simulation enabled by HPC-class compute power to help contain costs, improve quality and accelerate time-to-market. At the heart of these strategies for many companies: a cloud computing platform that offers – and continually refreshes – its technology and support service ecosystem for manufacturers.

An AI-Flavored Set of HPC Predictions for 2023
January 4, 2023 by
We recently read an interesting article in Wired magazine on neuromorphic computing stating that neuroscientists increasingly regard the human brain is a “prediction machine,” that people, as a rule, are in a constant state of anticipation, extrapolation and inference. In HPC, situated as it is at the forward edge of compute power, data analysis and […]
