Supermicro Servers with Micron DDR5 & SSDs: Accelerating Real World WorkloadsRebekah Rodriguez
With the recent announcements from Intel and Supermicro, we are seeing a number of new systems that support exciting new technologies and which provide a scalable foundation for the data center of the future. These systems also deliver significant benefits to meet today's real-world problems and help to optimize existing HPC and business applications.
Realizing these benefits demands innovations in performance, cost management, and integration. It is not one company's problem to solve but an ecosystem that can collaborate and configure the right solutions to meet today's needs.
Please join Supermicro and Micron to learn about their close collaboration, the roles of Supermicro X13 systems and DDR5 memory to meet these requirements, and learn about the results we are seeing today.
CFD acceleration with FPGA (byteLAKE's presentation from PPAM 2019)byteLAKE
byteLAKE's presentation from the PPAM 2019 conference.
Abstract:
The goal of this work is to adapt 4 CFD kernels to the Xilinx ALVEO U250 FPGA, including first-order step of the non-linear iterative upwind advection MPDATA schemes (non-oscillatory forward in time), the divergence part of the matrix-free linear operator formulation in the iterative Krylov scheme, tridiagonal Thomas algorithm for vertical matrix inversion inside preconditioner for the iterative solver, and computation of the psuedovelocity for the second pass of upwind algorithm in MPDATA. All the kernels use 3-dimensional compute domain consisted from 7 to 11 arrays. Since all kernels belong to the group of memory bound algorithms, our main challenge is to provide the highest utilization of global memory bandwidth. Our adaptation allows us to reduce the execution time upto 4x.

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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
