We were thinking to take the entire #HPC section to #SC in St Louis this year (it's time for us to build a new cluster). But for obvious reasons none of us are going, not this year nor coming years.

Fortunately, HPC Asia *and* Supercomputing Asia will have a joint 4-day conference in Osaka, Japan in January! It's perfect - not just because it's 15 minutes by bicycle from our family home; Glitch #coffee has a shop at walking distance. Just saying.

Question for people involved with computational science, #supercomputing, or similar at academic institutions or national labs:

Which do you professionally self-identify as most strongly?

#HPC person?

#RSE person?

Computational scientist?

Other? If so, what?

The U.S. added dozens of companies to its export control list, including more than 50 based in China that it says sought advanced knowhow in supercomputing, artificial intelligence and quantum technology for military purposes.

Der #EuroHPCSummit läuft zurzeit in Krakaus schickem Kongresszentrum. Veranstaltet von der @EuroHPC_JU geht es um die Entwicklungen im #supercomputing von #europa Die Integration von Quantenprozessoren in HPC-Systeme ist ein Thema dort – und damit der EuroQExa am LRZ, das hybride System ist Teil der Quantenstrategie von EuroHPC JU, wird bei uns gehostet und voraussichtlich in diesem Jahr der europäischen Forschung zur Verfügung gestellt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQpOq7TZL88

Neben #exa_JUPITER, dem weltweit schnellsten KI-Supercomputer , der gerade an unserem #Supercomputing Centre entsteht, haben wir einen weiteren Meilenstein erreicht: Das @fzj_jsc hat den Zuschlag für eine der sechs europäischen „KI-Fabriken“ erhalten!

Was bedeutet das für den Forschungsstandort NRW und ganz Deutschland? JSC-Institutsleiter Prof. Thomas Lippert gibt im #WDR5-Interview spannende Einblicke.

„Deutschland und Europa können bei der #KI eine führende Rolle einnehmen“, sagt BM Cem Özdemir. Dazu müssen wir unsere Stärken in der Forschung noch besser auf die Straße bringen – so wie im #CyberValley. Der Minister besuchte dort das #AI Center in #Tübingen und das Höchstleistungsrechenzentrum #Stuttgart (#HLRS).

€240M found for three-year sprint to develop three chiplets for #HPC, #AI"

If the #EU would take this serious, that should have been Billions instead if Millions. And not a 3y sprint.

This would be really worth the investment. We need much more than that. Yesterday.

If you are going to be at #GTC this session has to be a priority to attend -

1. Because of the #HPC celebs involved - Nicole Hemsoth & @glennklockwood & Jeff Denworth

2. The important topic for #AI and #supercomputing - the future of #IO, #data and filesystems (or not).
