A team led by researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory explored training strategies for one of the largest artificial intelligence models to date with help from the world’s fastest supercomputer. The post ORNL: World’s Fastest Supercomputer Takes on Large Language Modeling appeared first on HPCwire.

Laboratories are running supercomputers for much longer, beyond the typical lifespan, as vendors prematurely deprecate the hardware and stop providing support. A typical supercomputer lifecycle is about five to six years. However, Japan-based RIKEN is planning to run its existing Fugaku for ten years, and Lawrence Livermore National Labs (LLNL) has some systems running for […]

Malfunction of the proteins that sense voltage changes in our nerve cells underlies a number of human diseases throughout the body. A University of Chicago team used an Anton 2 supercomputer developed by D. E. Shaw Research and hosted at PSC to simulate a voltage-sensing protein from a primitive animal to learn how the sensor […]

Although LLMs are getting all the notice lately, AI techniques of many varieties are being infused throughout science. For example, Harvard researchers, Google, and colleagues published a 3D map in Science that reveals a small chunk of as human brain in astonishing detail. Imaging the roughly cubic millimeter of tissue produced 1.4 petabytes of data. […]

An international team of scientists has built the largest and most detailed bird family tree to date—an intricate chart delineating 93 million years of evolutionary relationships between 363 bird species, representing 92% of all bird families. The advance was made possible in large part thanks to cutting-edge computational methods developed by engineers at the University […]

=Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have achieved a milestone in accelerating and adding features to complex multi-physics simulations run on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), a development that could advance high performance computing and engineering. The post LLNL Team Accelerates Multi-Physics Simulations with El Capitan Predecessor Systems appeared first on HPCwire.

The journey begins as Kate Keahey’s wandering path unfolds, leading to improbable events. Keahey, Senior Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago, leads Chameleon. This innovative project offers an edge-to-cloud platform tailored for experimental computer science research, educational endeavors, and emerging applications. Chameleon essentially functions as a bare-metal, reconfigurable testbed, facilitating researchers in exploring various system-related […]

Photonic Inc., a leader in distributed quantum computing in silicon, announced a significant milestone on the path to commercially relevant quantum systems. While many existing quantum architectures achieve entanglement within modules, Photonic has demonstrated entanglement between modules. The post Photonic Unveils Major Advancement in Quantum Systems with Inter-Module Entanglement appeared first on HPCwire.

Researchers from the Center for Quantum Information (CQI), Tsinghua University, Beijing, have reported successful development and testing of a new programmable quantum memory framework. “This work provides a promising platform for the implementation of quantum repeaters, quantum network, and networked quantum computation,” say the researchers in their paper published today in APS journal, Physical Review […]

Cleveland Clinic, IBM and the Science and Technology Facilities Council’s (STFC) Hartree Centre in the UK have announced an innovative collaboration aimed at advancing healthcare and biomedical science through advanced computing technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing. The post Cleveland Clinic, IBM and the Hartree Centre Utilize AI and Quantum Computing to Advance […]
