Over the past 40 years of change, two things have remained constant, Tom Wilkie discovers: the role of mathematics and the need for highly educated and talented people
Argonne has pioneered a course to equip researchers with the skills they need for computational science and engineering (CS&E). Its organiser, Paul Messina, calls on more institutions to offer such training
HPC need people even more than it needs technology. John Bashor reviews one initiative to attract new people into HPC, the Student Cluster Competition
Doug Miles, director of PGI Compilers & Tools, considers the challenges compilers will face in the new world of high-performance computing
Sam Mahalingam, chief technical officer, HPC/Cloud Solutions, at Altair, looks forward to a culture in which innovation flourishes as a result of human ingenuity and the creative application of technology
Although advances in HPC have been stellar there is even more still to come, says Mark Seager, chief technology officer, technical computing ecosystem, at Intel
Giampietro Tecchiolli, CTO of Eurotech, expects the techniques of high-performance computing to become more pervasive but worries about shortage of skilled manpower
Scot Schultz,director of HPC and Technical Computing at Mellanox Technologies, believes that interconnects are critical to the demands of big data today and that they will play a still larger role in the next generation of high-performance computers
Although the past decade has seen a huge growth in high-performance computing, Tom Wilkie believes there is a lot more still to come
Mathematics underpins every technical disciplines logical advance and mathematics education is vital to the future, according to Jim Cooper, president and CEO of Maplesoft
Robert Roe interviews MathWorks Loren Dean, on the use of AI in modelling and simulation
Every device needs to work seamlessly in its operating environment. But when that environment is a human body, things get complicated.
Christian Marcazzo, general manager at IDBS, highlights trends in life sciences research and development.
Data is a company’s biggest asset, yet for any organisation, keeping a handle on the potentially vast volumes and diversity of data that are generated can represent a considerable issue.
Rob Lalonde, Univa’s cloud VP general manager, considers the unique challenges posed by HPC
Deep learning has seen a huge rise in popularity over the last five years in both enterprise and scientific applications.
HPC users are increasingly turning to cloud technologies due to their flexibility and scalability, allowing them to quickly change the size of their workloads, adopt new technologies in a small testing environment and to help to increase the agility of a company working across multiple sites, or
