Healthcare has became one of the most important aspects of everyones life. Its importance has surged due to the latests outbreaks and due to this latest pandemic it has become mandatory to collaborate to improve everyones Healthcare as soon as possible.
IBM has reacted quickly sharing not only its knowledge but also its Artificial Intelligence Supercomputers all around the world.
Those Supercomputers are helping to prevail this outbreak and also future ones.
They have completely different features compared to proposals from other players of this Supercomputers market.
We will try to make a quick look at the differences of those AI focused Supercomputers and how they can help in the R&D of Healthcare solutions for everyone, from those ones with access to a big IBM AI Supercomputer to those ones with access to only one small IBM AI focused server.
In this deck from ATPESC 2019, James Moawad and Greg Nash from Intel present: FPGAs and Machine Learning.
"Neural networks are inspired by biological systems, in particular the human brain. Through the combination of powerful computing resources and novel architectures for neurons, neural networks have achieved state-of-the-art results in many domains such as computer vision and machine translation. FPGAs are a natural choice for implementing neural networks as they can handle different algorithms in computing, logic, and memory resources in the same device. Faster performance comparing to competitive implementations as the user can hardcore operations into the hardware. Software developers can use the OpenCL device C level programming standard to target FPGAs as accelerators to standard CPUs without having to deal with hardware level design."

This presentation covers two uses cases using OpenPOWER Systems
1. Diabetic Retinopathy using AI on NVIDIA Jetson Nano: The objective is to classify the diabetic level solely on retina image in a remote area with minimum doctor's inference. The model uses VGG16 network architecture and gets trained from scratch on POWER9. The model was deployed on the Jetson Nano board.
1. Classifying Covid positivity using lung X-ray images: The idea is to build ML models to detect positive cases using X-ray images. The model was trained on POWER9, and the application was developed using Python.
In this video from ChefConf 2014 in San Francisco, Cycle Computing CEO Jason Stowe outlines the biggest challenge facing us today, Climate Change, and suggests how Cloud HPC can help find a solution, including ideas around Climate Engineering, and Renewable Energy.
"As proof points, Jason uses three use cases from Cycle Computing customers, including from companies like HGST (a Western Digital Company), Aerospace Corporation, Novartis, and the University of Southern California. It’s clear that with these new tools that leverage both Cloud Computing, and HPC – the power of Cloud HPC enables researchers, and designers to ask the right questions, to help them find better answers, faster. This all delivers a more powerful future, and means to solving these really difficult problems."

The Implementing AI: High Performance Architectures webinar, hosted by KTN and eFutures, was the fourth event in the Implementing AI summer webinar series.
Every business is increasing the use of artificial intelligence to gain efficiency and to make better decisions. These new demands for data processing are not well delivered by traditional computer architectures. Enterprises, developers, data scientists, and researchers need new platforms that unify all AI workloads, simplifying infrastructure and accelerating ROI. This has led to the development of high performance and specialised hardware devices to meet these new demands.
The focus of this webinar was the impact of processing AI data on data centres - particularly from the technology perspective. The webinar had four presentations from experts, covering the opportunities, implementation techniques and Case Studies, followed by a panel Q&A session.
Vertex Perspectives | AI Optimized Chipsets | Part IIIVertex Holdings
In this instalment, we review the training and inference chipset markets, assess the dominance of tech giants, as well as the startups adopting cloud-first or edge-first approaches to AI-optimized chipsets.
The Libre-SOC Project aims to create an entirely Libre-Licensed, transparently-developed fully auditable Hybrid 3D CPU-GPU-VPU, using the Supercomputer-class OpenPOWER ISA as the foundation.
Our first test ASIC is a 180nm "Fixed-Point" Power ISA v3.0B processor, 5.1mm x 5.9mm, as a proof-of-concept for the team, whose primary expertise is in Software Engineering. Software Engineering training brings a radically different approach to Hardware development: extensive unit tests, source code revision control, automated development tools are normal. Libre Project Management brings even more: bug trackers, mailing lists, auditable IRC logs and a wiki are standard fare for Libre Projects that are simply not normal Industry-Standard practice.
This talk therefore goes through the workflow, from the original HDL through to the GDS-II layout, showing how we were able to keep track of the development that led to the IMEC 180nm tape-out in July 2021. In particular, by following a parallel development process involving "Real" and "Symbolic" Cell Libraries, developed by Chips4Makers, will be shown how our developers did not need to sign a Foundry NDA, but were still able to work side-by-side with a University that did. With this parallel development process, the University upheld their NDA obligations, and Libre-SOC were simultaneously able to honour its Transparency Objectives.
Workload Transformation and Innovations in POWER Architecture Ganesan Narayanasamy
IT Industry is going through two major transformations. One is adaption of AI and tight integration of the same in the commercial applications and enterprise workflow. Two the transformation in software architecture through the concepts like microservices and the cloud native architecture. These transformation alongside the aggressive adaption of IoT/mobile and 5G in all our day today activities is making the world operate in more real time manner which opens-up a new challenge to improve the hardware architecture to adapt to these requirements. These above two major transformation pushes the boundary of the entire systems stack making the designer rethink hardware. This talk presents you a picture of how the enterprise Industry leading POWER architecture is transforming to fulfill the performance demands of these newer generation workloads with primary focus on the AI acceleration on the chip.

The IBM POWER10 processor represents the 10th generation of the POWER family of enterprise computing engines. Its performance is a result of both powerful processing cores and high-bandwidth intra- and inter-chip interconnect. POWER10 systems can be configured with up to 16 processor chips and 1920 simultaneous threads of execution. Cross-system memory sharing, through the new Memory Inception technology, and 2 Petabytes of addressing space support an expansive memory system. The POWER10 processing core has been significantly enhanced over its POWER9 predecessor, including a doubling of vector units and the addition of an all-new matrix math engine. Throughput gains from POWER9 to POWER10 average 30% at the core level and three-fold at the socket level. Those gains can reach ten- or twenty-fold at the socket level for matrix-intensive computations.
Macromolecular crystallography is an experimental technique allowing to explore 3D atomic structure of proteins, used by academics for research in biology and by pharmaceutical companies in rational drug design. While up to now development of the technique was limited by scientific instruments performance, recently computing performance becomes a key limitation. In my presentation I will present a computing challenge to handle 18 GB/s data stream coming from the new X-ray detector. I will show PSI experiences in applying conventional hardware for the task and why this attempt failed. I will then present how IC 922 server with OpenCAPI enabled FPGA boards allowed to build a sustainable and scalable solution for high speed data acquisition. Finally, I will give a perspective, how the advancement in hardware development will enable better science by users of the Swiss Light Source.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.
