I wondered if one could write a @tenstorrent.bsky.social
#Wormhole simulator that will execute tt-metal binaries based on the information in the excellent ISA documentation. Answer is yes, tt-sim is a Python @tenstorrent.bsky.social simulator. Still WIP, but runs things

Was great fun teaching the @tenstorrent.bsky.social tutorial at @ieeexplore.bsky.social #CLUSTER with @fclc.bsky.social this week. And thanks Owain Kenway for finding (and fixing!) the bugs in the practical exercises ;) Great to introduce the architecture to new people!

@riscv.org.web.brid.gy for #HPC workshop at #SC25 will be held on Monday 17th November in St Louis. The paper deadline has been extended until 15th of August, accepting both full papers and work in progress. edin.ac/3Uyeclp

Great to see our knowledge exchange project (cake-dri.github.io) being represented properly at meetings. Thanks to Eleanor Broadway @epcc.bsky.social

YouTube video by PASC Conference Moving Towards a More Sustainable HPC Ecosystem A Full Stack Approach

I've really enjoyed #PASC25 this week in Brugg, where there have been many insightful talks. The highlight for me was our mini-symposium on moving to more sustainable #HPC (as part of #CONTINENTS) and I spoke to Maria from
@cscsch.bsky.social about the session youtu.be/-PGgfDSEWUs?...

@paulbcfd.bsky.social , #CFD expert @epcc.bsky.social presents ASiMoV-CCS at #PASC25 which is a new #CFD solver providing improved opportunities for running at scale. A great example of using modern #Fortran

Weronika from @epcc.bsky.social talks in the sustainable training mini symposium at #PASC25 about some of the activities going on in @epcc.bsky.social , and specifically #UNIVERSE_HPC

#PASC25 mini symposium on sustainability continues with Thomas Hauser from @ncar-ucar.bsky.social talks about reducing energy usage and cost by improving efficiency of the #CISL data centre as part of #CONTINENTS

"We are facing a revolution in climate science driven by limits in Denard scaling similar to Von Neumann in the 50s". Ioana Colfescu from @ncas-uk.bsky.social talks about using #AI for climate science at #PASC25 as part of #CONTINENTS

Just Zarins from @epcc.bsky.social kicks off a mini symposium at #PASC25 on sustainability, talking about porting the @ncar-ucar.bsky.social shallow wave equation model to the @cerebrassystems.bsky.social #CS3

@micheleweiland.bsky.social talks about sustainable supercomputing @epcc.bsky.social , including clock frequency on #ARCHER2, malleable jobs, novel hardware and teaching. At #PASC25, more details on our @cerebrassystems.bsky.social systems tomorrow afternoon by Justs as part of #CONTINENTS

Jake Davies, one of my PhD students @epcc.bsky.social presents our work on accererating #FFT on @tenstorrent.bsky.social #wormhole at @riscv.org.web.brid.gy for #HPC . #wormhole is around three times more energy efficient than a 24-core Xeon Platinum and I think we can push this even further

Andrea Gallo, CEO of @riscv.org.web.brid.gy kicks off the #RISCV for #HPC workshop at #ISC25, highlighting the importance of openness and some predictions around the popularity of the standard into the future

And we get to deep dive into #RISCV at #ISC at the workshop tomorrow afternoon. Will be opened with a keynote from Andrea, CEO of @riscv.org.web.brid.gy riscv.epcc.ed.ac.uk/community/wo...

Fun presenting with @fclc.bsky.social at #ISC this week, at the @riscv.org.web.brid.gy BoF and then today at the democratising #AI accelerators for #HPC . #RISCV continues with a workshop Friday afternoon, kicked off with keynote from @riscv.org.web.brid.gy CEO. riscv.epcc.ed.ac.uk/community/work…

BBC World Service - Tech Life, China's booming EV industry In China, electric cars accounted for almost half of all car sales last year.

Enjoyed talking to the BBC world service this week about Supercomputing and the Top500 list as part of the Tech Life programme www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w...

It's been lots of fun in @epcc.bsky.social working with Tim and @tobiasweinzierl.bsky.social on this #eCSE project undertaking automatic kernel generation for #ExaHyPE using #mlir

Great to introduce our new eCSE-GPU project today at #HPCDays #Durham . We will develop GPU acceleration for the #MONC @metoffice.gov.uk atmospheric model used throughout UK science. Work aims to deliver improved resolution and reduced time to solution for holy-grail atmospheric science workloads.

Early registration open now for IEEE Cluster 2025, to be hosted by EPCC in Edinburgh.

IEEE Cluster is a major international forum for presenting & sharing recent accomplishments & technological developments in the field of cluster computing.

Interesting talk at #RISCVSummitEurope by @asbradbury.org about vectorisation challenges and improvements in LLVM. Some impressive performance results based on recent work

Yup, lots of excitement about it :)

Why RISC-V for HPC? @nickbrown-hpc.bsky.social presents at the RISC-V Summit Europe

@eurohpc-ju.bsky.social are aiming for an exascale European #RISCV #supercomputer by 2030 at #RISCVSummitEurope

#RISCVSummitEurope has been great so far, and I am looking forward this afternoon talking about why and how #RISCV can play an important part in #HPC

Wei-Han Lien chief architect at @tenstorrent.bsky.social highlights we are in a golden era of silicon design driven by open hardware at #RISCVSummitEurope. Exciting look at their Ascalon @riscv.org.web.brid.gy CPU and future roadmap. Great to chat with the @tenstorrent.bsky.social team this week.

Andrea Gallo, CEO of @riscv.org.web.brid.gy kicks off #RISCVSummitEurope , great to see #HPC mentioned and some of the activities in Europe highlighted, along with the #riscv ecosystem labs programme that @epcc.bsky.social is member of with our #HPC testbed

A great first day at #RISCVSummitEurope , thanks to everyone who came to the #HPC #SIG meeting this morning. It was a busy session discussing our activities and gaining feedback and views on recommendations from the gap analysis that has been conducted.

Please note that we have a series of interesting tutorials for the HPC Days: durham.readthedocs.io/en/latest/hp... They cover a vast range. Further to that, first information on our social are now online. There's more details to come ...

Was great fun to talk about #RISCV at #CUG2025 today, highlighting some of the interesting things happening and why the #HPC should care.
