03:53AM EDT – Simulated energy department workload via PCA for HPC, with microarchitecture analysis (PCA)
03:51AM EDT – In some instances, lots of small cores are better for SoC rather than big chunky ones.
03:51AM EDT – Discussing big.Little with HPC
03:49AM EDT – Mont-Blanc project, seeing what could be done with current ARM cores with the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre. Based on Exynos (A15) with Mali-T604
03:47AM EDT – Back in 2012, 64-core ARM was a ‘monster project’, from Phytium. Realised 2015 with Mars using 64 ‘Xiaomi’ cores
03:46AM EDT – He’s the Director of HPC
03:45AM EDT – Also involved in Roadrunner, first PF machine in 2008, then joined ARM in 2012 to lead the Exascale program
03:45AM EDT – He was first involved with the 2002 Earth Simulatior, 35.6 TF, 640 nodes
03:44AM EDT – Eric van Hensbergen first up
03:42AM EDT – Also, ‘Brexit means Brexit’, but ARM is multinational and is still being awarded EU funding for projects.
03:42AM EDT – Initial comments from the pulpit: the SoftBank acquisition means business as usual
03:41AM EDT – ARM’s first Research Summit is happening today at Churchill College, Cambridge. We have near-front row seats and are expecting some details on future HPC plans today.
