Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences’ Post

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences Summer Student poster session earlier this week! We’re thrilled to share that this year’s event set a new record with an impressive 91 posters presented. We’d also like to acknowledge the tremendous impact our student researchers, visiting faculty, and their mentors have had on Berkeley Lab's research. Your contributions have not only showcased your talents but have also propelled our work forward in meaningful ways.

🎉 🎉 Congratulations to Marcus Noack, James Sethian, Ronald Pandolfi, and the rest of Berkeley Lab’s Center for Advanced Mathematics for Energy Research Applications (CAMERA) team! 🎉 🎉 Their gpCAM software for autonomous labs of the future has just been named a 2024 R&D100 Award winner: https://bit.ly/gpCAMrd100. ____________________________________________ U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science R&D - Research & Development World University of California, Berkeley #AI #Science #Research #AutonomousLabs #datascience #mathematics #ML #MachineLearning #ArtificialIntelligence

Did you know that researchers from Lehigh University and Berkeley Lab have developed an Accelerating Sparse Accumulation (ASA) architecture, specialized computer hardware that enables faster computation on sparse matrices—datasets with many zero values? Their published work has led to a provisional patent, and the ASA architecture could accelerate a variety of valuable algorithms, including those impacting future metagenomic research.

It’s #TauDay, a special day dedicated to promoting and appreciating the mathematical constant τ (tau), equal to 2π, or approximately 6.28. As enthusiasts of mathematics and its applications, Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences Area staff celebrated with pizza, cookies, trivia, and hula hooping! (For more information on Tau Day, read “The Tau Manifesto” by Michael Hartl: https://lnkd.in/enKKcZU) _____________________________________________ cc: U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Berkeley Lab

Thank you to everyone who came to the Open Chiplet Economy Experience Center at Berkeley Lab today! In the post-Moore’s Law era of computing, specialized architectures like chiplets are redefining computing and providing new avenues for advancing supercomputing speed and energy efficiency. This year represents a significant milestone for the open chiplet economy: the start of a transition from documents and slides into the realm of tangible and real products. Co-hosted by Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences and the Open Compute Project Foundation, today’s event provided a select collection of technology demonstrations covering products and prototypes emerging from different corners of the emerging chiplet market that will impact the development of specialized ASICs for HPC. Listen to Berkeley Lab's John Shalf discuss the "Rise of the Killer Chiplets" on the OrionX.net podcast earlier this year: https://bit.ly/chipletshpc _____________________________________________ cc: U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Synopsys Inc Alphawave Semi, Blue Cheetah Analog Design, Inc.

Attention Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences Postdocs! There are only four days left to submit your intent to participate in the 2024 Berkeley Lab Postdoc SLAM. The SLAM is a competition where contestants are challenged to present a compelling three-minute presentation of their research in a language appropriate to a non-specialist audience. Modeled after 3 Minute Thesis and Grad Slam, this event will occur on Thursday, September 19, 2024, from 3:00 p.m.-4:30 p.m. in Building 50 Auditorium.
