Is RISC-V Ready For Supercomputing?
By Brian Bailey - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

RISC-V processors, which until several years ago were considered auxiliary processors for specific functions, appear to be garnering support for an entirely different type of role — high-performance computing. This is still at the discussion stage. Questions remain about the software ecosystem, or whether the chips, boards, and systems are reliable enough. And there are both business and t... » read more

How To Raise Reliability, Availability, And Serviceability Levels For HPC SoCs
By Charlie Matar - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

By Charlie Matar, Rita Horner, and Pawini Mahajan While once the domain of large data centers and supercomputers, high-performance computing (HPC) has become rather ubiquitous and, in some cases, essential in our everyday lives. Because of this, reliability, availability, and serviceability, or RAS, is a concept that more HPC SoC designers should familiarize themselves with. RAS may sound... » read more

The Path To Known Good Interconnects
By Laura Peters - 19 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 1

Chiplets and heterogenous integration (HI) provide a compelling way to continue delivering improvements in performance, power, area, and cost (PPAC) as Moore’s Law slows, but choosing the best way to connect these devices so they behave in consistent and predictable ways is becoming a challenge as the number of options continues to grow. More possibilities also bring more potential interac... » read more

A technical paper titled "A 100-Gb/s PAM4 Optical Transmitter in a 3-D-Integrated SiPh-CMOS Platform Using Segmented MOSCAP Modulators" was published by researchers at CalTech and University of Southampton. "The resulting optimized interface between the two chips allows them to transmit 100 gigabits of data per second while producing just 2.4 pico-Joules per transmitted bit. This improves th... » read more

The Data Center Journey, From Central Utility To Center Of The Universe
By Mike Gianfagna - 22 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

High-performance computing (HPC) has taken on many meanings over the years. The primary goal of HPC is to provide the needed computational power to run a data center – a utilitarian facility dedicated to storing, processing, and distributing data. The beginning of HPC Historically, the data being processed was the output of business operations for a given organization. Transactions, custome... » read more

A New Era For HPC-Driven Engineering Simulation
By Ansys - 12 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

Market pressure and technological advancements have rapidly changed the way engineers work. Design engineers increasingly work with larger and more complex models, must conduct more frequent simulation analysis, and iterate more rapidly. Compute constraints, however, often result in engineers limiting model sizes and simulation fidelity, or relying on lengthy, overnight simulation runs. ... » read more

This white paper breaks down the costs and time savings associated with implementing high-performance computing technology. High-performance computing (HPC) is an enormous part of the present and future of engineering simulation. HPC allows best-in-class companies to gain high-fidelity insight into product behavior, insight that cannot be obtained without the detailed simulation models – i... » read more

How New Storage Technologies Enhance HPC Systems
By Synopsys - 08 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

High-performance computing (HPC) has historically been available primarily to governments, research institutions, and a few very large corporations for modeling, simulation, and forecasting applications. As HPC platforms are being deployed in the cloud for shared services, high-performance computing is becoming much more accessible, and its use is benefiting organizations of all sizes. Increasi... » read more
