Scientific endeavors of unprecedented scale, such as Square Kilometre Array, Large
Synoptic Survey Telescope, Large Hadron Collider, will be or are already generating
colossal amounts of data. Furthermore, in a fundamental manner, OMICS and AI
depend on the availability and easy access to big data. This forces us to rethink the
hierarchy and relative importance of "compute - store -...
HPC users ask more of their HPC systems than ever before and they rely on Intel security innovations as the trusted foundation for high performance computing, protecting applications and data. Intel deliver technology that improves foundational security, data and workload protection, and software reliability, using new hardware-based controls for cloud and enterprise environments, including...
The Arm ecosystem has defined the last three decades of compute technology and will continue to do so for a long time to come. Arm’s ambitions for the emerging markets are consistent with our vision towards deploying technology that enables opportunity for a globally connected population.
The new Armv9 architecture forms the leading edge of the next 300 billion Arm-based chips. It...
Addison Snell of Intersect360 Research will give an overview of the latest market research and insights for HPC and AI, including revised market guidance for 2021, highlights of their recent HPC software survey, and insights from SC21.
The Vendor Crossfire Session is focused on giving the audience the opportunity to learn more about the products and offerings of the conference sponsors in a fun and engaging session.
The session will be facilitated by Addison Snell and Dan Olds from Intersect360 and will also involve participation of the audience to e.g. vote on answers to questions posed to vendor...
The increasing popularity of IoT devices allows us to communicate better, interact better, and ultimately build a new type of a scientific instrument that will allow us to explore our environment in ways that we could only dream about just a few years ago. This disruptive opportunity raises a new set of challenges: how should we manage the massive amounts of data and network traffic such...
The Nectar Research Cloud has been supporting Australian national research since 2012. In the last 18 months the ARDC has doubled Nectar’s national capacity and increased its investment in leading-edge technology. This has enabled ARDC Nectar to be flexible in responding to changing research demands and challenges during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
The talk will highlight how we have...
Throughout the rapid evolution of HPC driven by technology advances reflected by Moore’s Law, processor core architecture has dominated computer design across ten orders (or more) of magnitude in delivered performance. But with the achievement of nanoscale device technology, exponential gain has stagnated demanding alternative innovative strategies. Concurrently, workloads have pivoted from...
