Issue #127 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Updates from Hot Chips. AWS celebrates a birthday and Microsoft announces a death.

Issue #126 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Cache aware scheduling, scale up, out and across networking, turbocharged AI inference at wafer scale and UA Link and CXL edge closer to reality.

Issue #125 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Microsoft goes all in on its AI chips, Nvidia gives us an LLM router, Google extends AlphaFold as an HPC product and AWS gives us K8 inspired EC2 extensions.

Issue #124 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Not AMD sponsored but you would be forgiven for thinking it is! If you strip away the AI financing news the interesting bits left behind mostly came from AMD this week. GPU dominant of course but not your typical AI related.

Issue #123 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Is quantum computing knocking on your supercomputer’s front door? AI infrastructure is both expanding and getting more expensive to finance and the EU joins the fray.

Issue #122 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. AMD gives us new Zen6 CPUs and MI4000 series GPUs. And a new software stack to drive them. We also got more details on Vera Rubin and some interesting information on combining AI and quantum computing (for error correction).

Issue #120 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. More heterogeneity, more AI accelerators but also, maybe, a way to deal with them all? But should you even bother? Maybe you just pick your poison and stick with it.

Issue #119 of The SC. Weekly supercomputing news. Meta is going to start renting its GPUs. And possibly we don’t need GPUs anymore too. Either way memory prices are so crazy even Apple is putting prices up but maybe South Korea will fix that?
