Mass Customization For AI Inference
By Ann Mutschler - 17 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

Rising complexity in AI models and an explosion in the number and variety of networks is leaving chipmakers torn between fixed-function acceleration and more programmable accelerators, and creating some novel approaches that include some of both. By all accounts, a general-purpose approach to AI processing is not meeting the grade. General-purpose processors are exactly that. They're not des... » read more

The Crucial Role Of High-Performance Computing In 2024: Balancing Cost And Innovation
By Keith Schaub - 14 May, 2024 - Comments: 0

We live in a world where digital queries run the Information Superhighway and in turn, our lives. This means that the importance of High-Performance Computing (HPC) cannot be overstated. The technology behind this continues to be a cornerstone for advancing our world and improving productivity. To put it another way, can you imagine a day, a week, when you are not querying something? So, let... » read more

Advanced Packaging Design For Heterogeneous Integration
