One doesn't normally associate their favorite shampoo or laundry detergent with science, let alone multi-million dollar supercomputers, but in today's modern wo Read more…

Big Rig Redesign Still Going Strong

August 26, 2013

In 2011, South Carolina-based BMI Corp. worked with researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to develop a technology that improves the aerodynamics of long haul tractor trailers, thereby boosting fuel efficiency. Two years later, the company and the partnership are still going strong. Read more…

Ford Taps ORNL to Boost Vehicle Airflow, Fuel Efficiency

August 19, 2013

Anybody who drives one of Ford's recent vehicles spends a little less money on gasoline thanks to HPC work the carmaker undertook with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where more than one million processor hours were spent getting a handle on the complex fluid dynamics governing airflow under the hood. Read more…

Spider II Emerges to Give ORNL a Big Speed Boost

August 16, 2013

When the Jaguar supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory morphed into Titan in 2012, it delivered a huge increase in computational power. Recently, the ORNL's parallel file system, called Spider, received a similar overhaul, and is in the process of emerging as Spider II. Read more…

Exterminating at Extreme Scale

May 7, 2013

Since the first bug was eradicated from a Mark II system at Harvard in 1940s (an actual moth wedged in a relay, which drove the machine to a standstill) system exterminators have faced a constant spray of challenges. We talk with Allinea co-founder David Lecomber about challenges on Titan and Blue Waters--and the future of debugging exascale ... Read more…

Oak Ridge National Laboratory Helps Advance Scientific Discovery with HPC

January 9, 2012

<p>The impact of using supercomputers to solve complex calculations and simulate atomic structure behavior is tremendous, reducing some scientific research (such as this Germanium-72 experiment) from months to less than a week. In a short period of time scientists can now perform many more experiments and advance discovery in real-time.</p> Read more…

Streamlining AI Data Management

Five Recommendations to Optimize Data Pipelines

When building AI systems at scale, managing the flow of data can make or break a business. The various stages of the AI data pipeline pose unique challenges that can disrupt or misdirect the flow of data, ultimately impacting the effectiveness of AI storage and systems.

With so many applications and diverse requirements for data types, management systems, workloads, and compliance regulations, these challenges are only amplified. Without a clear, continuous flow of data throughout the AI data lifecycle, AI models can perform poorly or even dangerously.

To ensure your AI systems are optimized, follow these five essential steps to eliminate bottlenecks and maximize efficiency.

Whitepaper

Taking research further with extraordinary compute power and efficiency

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) is an elite public research university located in Karlsruhe, Germany and is engaged in a broad range of disciplines in natural sciences, engineering, economics, humanities, and social sciences. For institutions like KIT, HPC has become indispensable to cutting-edge research in these areas.

KIT’s HoreKa supercomputer supports hundreds of research initiatives including a project aimed at predicting when the Earth’s ozone layer will be fully healed. With HoreKa, projects like these can process larger amounts of data enabling researchers to deepen their understanding of highly complex natural processes.

Read this case study to learn how KIT implemented their supercomputer powered by Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, featuring Lenovo Neptune™ liquid cooling technology, to attain higher performance while reducing power consumption.
