Initial results of the Scientific Computing World (SCW) HPC readership survey have shown training and support for HPC resources are the number one concern for both those that operate and manage HPC facilities and researchers using HPC resources
The European Extreme Data & Computing Initiative (EXDCI) project final conference will deliver 6 decisive keynotes and a joint session with Eurolab4HPC and HiPEAC, that will cover all the fields of the recent evolution of the EU HPC ecosystem.
University of Manchester researchers investigating the gait and biomechanics of the T.rex have concluded that the animal would be unable to run as its leg bones would have buckled under the animal’s weight
The university of Aberdeen in the UK has announced that it is launching a new master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence
A powerful computer system capable of revolutionising the UK’s ability to plan for extreme events, such as flooding and power outages, is being designed as part of a government scheme to increase the nation’s resiliency to extreme weather events
The makers of the Raspberry Pi were awarded the UK’s top engineering innovation prize – the Royal Academy of Engineering MacRobert Award – for the impact that the microcomputer
The benefit of design exploration and optimization is understood and accepted by engineers but the required intensive computational resources have been a challenge for their adoption into the design process. The HyperWorks Unlimited (HWUL) appliance provides an effective solution to these challenges as it seamlessly connects all the necessary tools together in the cloud. The aim of this study is to showcase the benefits of HWUL on an optimization driven design of a complex system. For this purpose, an automotive seat design for crash loadcases is selected as an example.
The second annual ARM Research Summit is an academic meeting to discuss future trends and disruptive technologies across all sectors of computing. It will take place in Cambridge over the 11-13 September 2017, and will be hosted at Robinson College.
The Summit includes talks from the leaders in their research fields, demonstrations, networking opportunities and the chance to interact and discuss projects with members of ARM Research.
Supercomputer integrator Cray has announced that it has signed a solutions provider agreement with Mark III Systems to develop, market, and sell products that leverage Cray’s portfolio of supercomputing and big data analytics systems.
In a recent editorial, Nature Geoscience has highlighted the work of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center on a simulation code called CALIOPE, which provides 48-hour air quality forecasts for Spain and Europe. The piece, published at the begging of February, highlights the health problems associated with air pollution which not only affects developing countries but many of the world's major cities.
