    A look back at the 2019 Exascale Computing Project Annual Meeting

    A look back at the 2019 Exascale Computing Project Annual Meeting

    In this podcast, Doug Kothe from the Exascale Computing Project describes the 2019 ECP Annual Meeting. "The 2019 Exascale Computing Project (ECP) Annual Meeting will convene to highlight technical accomplishments that are being enabled by interactions and collaborations within the ECP community, which encompasses the ECP focus areas, U.S. Department of Energy high-performance computing facilities, and vendors. Networking opportunities will be emphasized and project participants asked to explore ways to leverage and share requirements with other ECP efforts. Key topics to be covered at the meeting are discussions of future systems, software stack plans, and interactions with facilities. Several parallel sessions are also planned throughout the meeting.'

    Podcast: TensorFlow for HPC?

    Podcast: TensorFlow for HPC?

    In this podcast, Peter Braam looks at how TensorFlow framework could be used to accelerate high performance computing. "Google has developed TensorFlow, a truly complete platform for ML. The performance of the platform is amazing, and it begs the question if it will be useful for HPC in a similar manner that GPU’s heralded a revolution."

    AI and the Virtuous Cycle of Compute

    AI and the Virtuous Cycle of Compute

    In this Rich Report podcast, Pradeep Dubey discusses AI & The Virtuous Cycle of Compute. Traditionally, there has been a division of labor between computers and humans where all forms of number crunching and bit manipulation are left to computers, whereas intelligent decision-making is left to us humans. We are now at the cusp of a major transformation that can disrupt this balance. This disruption is triggered by an unprecedented convergence of massive compute with massive data, and some recent algorithmic advances. This confluence has the potential to spur a virtuous cycle of compute. Deep Learning was recently scaled to obtain 15PF performance on the Cori supercomputer at NERSC. Cori Phase II features over 9600 KNL processors. It can significantly impact how we do computing and what computing can do for us. In this talk, I will discuss some of the application-level opportunities and system-level challenges that lie at the heart of this intersection of traditional high performance computing with emerging data-intensive computing. Dr. Pradeep Dubey is an Intel Fellow and Director of Parallel Computing Lab (PCL), part of Intel Labs. His research focus is computer architectures to efficiently handle new compute- and data-intensive application paradigms for the future computing environment. He previously worked at IBM’s T.J. Watson Research Center, and Broadcom Corporation. He has made contributions to the design, architecture, and application-performance of various microprocessors, including IBM Power PC, Intel i386, i486, Pentium Xeon, and the Xeon Phi line of processors. He holds over 36 patents, has published more than 100 technical papers, won the Intel Achievement Award in 2012 for Breakthrough Parallel Computing Research, and was honored with Purdue University’s 2014 Outstanding Electrical and Computer Engineer Award. Dr. Dubey received a PhD in electrical engineering from Purdue University. He is a Fellow of IEEE.   Download the MP3 * Subscribe on iTunes * Subscribe to RSS  Check out our insideHPC Events Calendar

    Goodbye Net Neutrality

    Goodbye Net Neutrality

    In this podcast, the Radio Free HPC team looks at the FCC's move to abolish Net Neutrality regulations put in place during the Obama administration. Dan thinks this is a good move to remove unnecessary regulations, but rest of the crew is worried about where this will lead the future of the Internet. Net neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers must treat all data on the Internet the same, and not discriminate or charge differently by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication. For instance, under these principles, internet service providers are unable to intentionally block, slow down or charge money for specific websites and online content. After that, we do our Catch of the Week. Download the MP3 * Subscribe on iTunes * RSS Feed

Great podcast!

Loving this podcast!

Finally done right!!

Solaris buffs should enjoy this. The format is good, unlike the cheesy 80's style product marketing blips.
It's a quick news update, customer/partner interview, then Sun product spotlight format.
Hopefully, will keep up & not die off like other efforts.

Great stuff, well done

I really enjoyed the HPC podcasts this week. It's one of the best mediums for me since I travel on planes a lot of the time. I'm not connected to the internet and often run out of laptop battery, but my iPod keeps going and going. Keep them coming.
