Description

Historically, GPUs and accelerators have been growing roughly 26% per year (a five-year CAGR). Over the next five years, installations are expected to increase by at least 17% a year, greatly outpacing the revenue growth for HPC servers over the same forecast period. As AI workloads become an increasingly important part of overall HPC workload, both enabling new innovative techniques to solve new problems and to supplement traditional modelling and simulation workloads, GPU usage will likely continue to have strong growth. The figure below shows Hyperion Research’s projection for accelerators in the HPC market. Accelerators initially had a slow HPC adoption curve but have been steadily gaining momentum with GPUs emerging as the most popular option. Today, GPUs have become nearly synonymous with accelerators in the HPC space, given that GPUs comprise the overwhelming majority of accelerators in HPC clusters worldwide. Although originally designed as gaming processors for graphics rendering, GPUs were found to be well suited to a wide range of HPC applications and critical underlying AI functions, such as matrix multiplication, driving impressive performance gains. As a result, many HPC sites across a broad range of verticals are now using accelerators to speed up a larger portion of their increasingly AI-based workloads

    China’s Continuing Pursuit of an Indigenous Semiconductor Production Capability

    Steve Conway, Jie Wu, Earl Joseph

    Although China represents more than one-third of the global market for semiconductors, the country relies heavily on foreign sources, especially U.S. chipmakers and foundries headquartered in other Asian countries, for a majority of devices critical to Chinese-made products ranging from smartphones to industrial machinery and supercomputers. For the past few decades, China sought to develop an indigenous capability in an effort to reduce its dependence on the foreign supply of components. Its most recent major effort, the “Made-in-China” semiconductor initiative launched in 2015, targeted supplying 40% of China's semiconductor demand with homegrown products by 2020 and 70% by 2025.

    US Government Offers New Advanced Computing Strategy Centered on Key National Priorities

    Bob Sorensen, Thomas Gerard

    The US Government's Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) recently released a Federal strategic plan for a whole-of-nation approach to pioneering the future national advanced computing ecosystem that targets key application drivers and strategic objectives considered essential to US leadership, economic competitiveness, and national security. The plan specifically called out three critical application areas:

      • Extreme scale modeling and simulation
      • Data-intensive application workflows
      • End-to-end and real-time application workflows

     

    The plan also arrays a number of key strategic objectives, including:

      • The development of an advanced ecosystem that spans government, academia, non-profits and industry
      • The support of foundational, applied and translational research
      • The expansion of a diverse, capable and flexible workforce

     

    The strategic plan delineates US government agency roles and responsibilities and describes essential operational and coordination structures necessary to support and implement its objectives.
