Lockdown? Tak! Tylko jaki?
Obostrzenia na poziomie województw, powiatów czy w modelu mieszanym – w rządzie trwa dyskusja odnośnie do nowego modelu wprowadzania pandemicznych ograniczeń.

Dr Aneta Afelt: w połowie września zaczniemy widzieć ruch w liczbie zakażeń
– Jeżeli mówimy o wariancie Delta, czyli wariancie indyjskim, to on jest wysoce zaraźliwy, włącznie z tym, że mogą się zakażać osoby w pełni zaszczepione, a nie wszyscy, którzy przyjęli pierwszą dawkę szczepionki, wrócili po drugą – mówiła w Polskim Radiu 24 dr Aneta Afelt z Interdyscyplinarnego Centrum Modelowania Matematycznego i Komputerowego UW.

Europe’s Evolving View of “Continental Exascale”
Europe is known for taking its own routes in almost every segment and supercomputing is no different. While the broad expectation was for a Euro-centric processor ecosystem for exascale, that intention has been subverted in terms of hitting roadmap goals and establishing single-center dominance. Instead, Europe is taking a collective approach to extolling its dominance in HPC.

What’s After Exascale? The Internet of Workflows Says HPE’s Nicolas Dubé
With the race to exascale computing in its final leg, it’s natural to wonder what the Post Exascale Era will look like. Nicolas Dubé, VP and chief technologist for HPE’s HPC business unit, agrees and shared his vision at Supercomputing Frontiers Europe 2021 held last week. The next big thing, he told the virtual audience at SFE21, is something that will connect HPC and (broadly) all of IT – into what Dubé calls The Internet of Workflows.

Will Approximation Drive Post-Moore’s Law HPC Gains?
“Hardware-based improvements are going to get more and more difficult,” said Neil Thompson, an innovation scholar at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL). “I think that’s something that this crowd will probably, actually, be already familiar with.” Thompson, speaking at Supercomputing Frontiers Europe 2021, likely wasn’t wrong: the proximate death of Moore’s law has been a hot topic in the HPC community for a long time. But Thompson wasn’t just there to sound the death knell – he was there to discuss the future of computing, which, in his terms, was an approximate one.

With New Owner and New Roadmap, an Independent Omni-Path Is Staging a Comeback
Put on a shelf by Intel in 2019, Omni-Path faced an uncertain future, but under new custodian Cornelis Networks, Omni-Path Architecture (OPA) is seeking to make a comeback as an independent high-performance interconnect solution. According to the company, a “significant refresh” – called Omni-Path Express – is coming later this year.
