In this video from the PASC18 conference in Basel, Alice-Agnes Gabriel presents: Unravelling Earthquake Dynamics through Extreme-Scale Multiphysics Simulations. “Earthquakes are highly non-linear multiscale problems, encapsulating geometry and rheology of faults within the Earth’s crust torn apart by propagating shear fracture and emanating seismic wave radiation. This talk will focus on using physics-based scenarios, modern numerical […]
In this video from PASC18, Leonardo Bautista Gomez from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center presents: Easy and Efficient Multilevel Checkpointing for Extreme Scale Systems. “Extreme scale supercomputers offer thousands of computing nodes to their users to satisfy their computing needs. As the need for massively parallel computing increases in industry, computing centers are being forced to […]
In this video from PASC18, Jakub Tomczak from the University of Amsterdam presents: The Success of Deep Generative Models. “Deep generative models allow us to learn hidden representations of data and generate new examples. There are two major families of models that are exploited in current applications: Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), and Variational Auto-Encoders (VAE). […]
In this video from PASC18, Fernanda Foertter from NVIDIA presents: Practical Scaling Techniques for Deep Learning. “The need for large scale training of neural networks is stemming from the advent of ever growing labeled datasets in data science combined with the successes of deep learning at achieving super-human performance at pattern recognition tasks and others. […]
In this video from PASC18, Valentin Clement from the Center for Climate System Modeling in Switzerland presents: The CLAW DSL: Abstractions for Performance Portable Weather and Climate Models. “In order to profit from emerging high-performance computing systems, weather and climate models need to be adapted to run efficiently on different hardware architectures such as accelerators.
