In this deck from the Perth HPC Conference, Rob Farber from TechEnablement presents: AI is Impacting HPC Everywhere.
"The convergence of AI and HPC has created a fertile venue that is ripe for imaginative researchers ¡ª versed in AI technology ¡ª to make a big impact in a variety of scientific fields. From new hardware to new computational approaches, the true impact of deep- and machine learning on HPC is, in a word, ¡°everywhere¡±. Just as technology changes in the personal computer market brought about a revolution in the design and implementation of the systems and algorithms used in high performance computing (HPC), so are recent technology changes in machine learning bringing about an AI revolution in the HPC community. Expect new HPC analytic techniques including the use of GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) in physics-based modeling and simulation, as well as reduced precision math libraries such as NLAFET and HiCMA to revolutionize many fields of research. Other benefits of the convergence of AI and HPC include the physical instantiation of data flow architectures in FPGAs and ASICs, plus the development of powerful data analytic services."

The document provides details on the location, purpose, specifications and power of each top supercomputer.ParaForming - Patterns and Refactoring for Parallel Programming
ParaForming - Patterns and Refactoring for Parallel Programmingkhstandrews
?
Despite Moore's "law", uniprocessor clock speeds have now stalled. Rather than single processors running at ever higher clock speeds, it is
common to find dual-, quad- or even hexa-core processors, even in consumer laptops and desktops.
Future hardware will not be slightly parallel, however, as in today's multicore systems, but will be
massively parallel, with manycore and perhaps even megacore systems
becoming mainstream.
This means that programmers need to start thinking parallel. To achieve this they must move away
from traditional programming models where parallelism is a
bolted-on afterthought. Rather, programmers must use languages where parallelism is deeply embedded into the programming model
from the outset.
By providing a high level model of computation, without explicit ordering of computations,
declarative languages in general, and functional languages in particular, offer many advantages for parallel
programming.
One of the most fundamental advantages of the functional paradigm is purity.
In a purely functional language, as exemplified by Haskell, there are simply no side effects: it is therefore impossible for parallel computations to conflict with each
other in ways that are not well understood.
ParaForming aims to radically improve the process
of parallelising purely functional programs through a comprehensive set of high-level parallel refactoring patterns for Parallel Haskell,
supported by advanced refactoring tools.
By matching parallel design patterns with appropriate algorithmic skeletons
using advanced software refactoring techniques and novel cost information, we will bridge the gap between fully automatic
and fully explicit approaches to parallelisation, helping programmers "think parallel" in a systematic,
guided way. This talk introduces the ParaForming approach, gives some examples and shows how
effective parallel programs can be developed using advanced refactoring technology.SGI HPC DAY 2011 Kiev

The document discusses lessons learned from running engineering infrastructure at Arm. It discusses several key points:
1) Shared infrastructure can lead to compromise and additional effort with no value if used for multiple disciplines. Specialized environments for each discipline are preferred.
2) Automation is critical to avoid inefficiencies from rapid growth outpacing manual processes. Automate where possible.
3) Ubiquitous shared storage breeds laziness and poor data management practices that do not scale. More controlled use of storage is needed.
4) Educating engineers on responsible infrastructure use is important, as not all have expertise in large-scale systems. Partnership and guidance is preferred over being solely "the police".Supercomputer @ manarat university by reza

WSO2Con 2025 - How an Internal Developer Platform Lets Developers Focus on CodeWSO2
?
Cloud-native development often involves setting up infrastructure, managing security, and integrating services¡ªtasks that take time away from coding. An internal developer platform (IDP) streamlines these complexities, enabling developers to focus on building business logic.
This lab demonstrates how an IDP supports a hybrid development approach, where developers run some components locally while consuming cloud services seamlessly. Instead of manually configuring databases, authentication, or API gateways, they leverage platform capabilities for rapid iteration.
We¡¯ll walk through a real-world scenario where a developer:
Onboards quickly with an architect-defined application structure.
Develops in a hybrid environment, consuming cloud APIs, databases, and AI services while iterating locally.
Uses Choreo-managed authentication without dealing with OAuth2 intricacies.
Discovers and reuses microservices and APIs instead of rebuilding them.
Debugs efficiently without deploying all dependencies locally.
Ensures security and compliance automatically, catching vulnerabilities early.
By the end, you¡¯ll see how an IDP accelerates onboarding, enhances security, and simplifies cloud-native development¡ªso developers can focus on building great applications instead of managing infrastructure.CSUN 2025 - Personalization of Accessible Charts and Graphs.pptx

Spin Glass Models of Neural Networks: The Curie-Weiss Model from Statistical ...Charles Martin
?
The Curie¨CWeiss Model is a classic from physics that is foundational to understanding the statistical mechanics approach to the theory of neural networks. And, in particular, to the theory behind weightwatcher. In this deck, I present:
? Core Mathematical Techniques: Explore the mean-field theory and the saddle-point approximation (SPA) in the large-N limit, which provide a clear derivation of the phase diagram.
? Simple Phase Behavior: See how the model predicts a phase transition¡ªfrom a disordered paramagnetic state to an ordered ferromagnetic state¡ªwhich parallels the behavior observed in neural network training.
? Bridging to Modern Theory: The math here is also essential for understanding the theoretical backbone behind Weightwatcher SETOL theory. Both introduce critical techniques that help explain and predict phase behavior in modern deep learning architectures.
Whether you¡¯re a physicist or an ML practitioner, these insights offer a deeper look at how classical models inform today¡¯s neural network theory.Think Like and Architect Series: Session 1 of 9 Declarative Design
