There’s perhaps no field more demanding than modern semiconductor design. In both research and commercial settings, customers expect new electronic devices to be faster, cheaper, smaller, and more energy-efficient with each generation. Semiconductor producers rely on electronic design automation (EDA) tools to realize these improvements. Few understand these challenges better than CEA Tech, the Grenoble-based

This whitepaper funded by AMD discusses current challenges in CAE and explains how AMD EPYC 7003 series processors with V-Cache technology and HPE Apollo Gen10 Plus servers are an ideal solution for manufacturers.

I recently worked with Altair and AMD on this article explaining the benefits of 3D V-Cache technology in the latest AMD EPYC processors running FEA and CFD HPC workloads. READ THE ARTICLE

In the age of the internet and IoT, the need for electromagnetic simulation is on the rise. Today’s electronic devices bristle with electronic transmitters and sensors of all kinds. I recently had the opportunity to work with smart people at Altair and AMD to document a series of interesting electromagnetics benchmarks conducted with Altair Feko.

Altair Engineering have an impressive portfolio of solutions for electronic design automation. I had recently had the opportunity to develop a technical whitepaper describing products in the Altair Accelerator portfolio. You can View/Download the whitepaper here.

I recently completed work on the attached article for Altair and AMD published by InsideHPC. The combination of Altair structural and CFD solvers and the latest AMD EPYC 7003 series processors deliver industry-leading performance for CAE applications. You can read about the detailed benchmarks results here: Taking Altair Structural & CFD Analysis to New Heights

I recently completed a project working with Altair studying the pros and cons of open-source vs. commercial workload management. Having worked for years in HPC at both Platform Computing and IBM, this topic was right in my wheelhouse.

When it comes to high-performance computing (HPC), engineers can never get enough performance. Even minor improvements at the chip-level can have a dramatic financial impact in hyper-competitive industries such as computer-aided engineering (CAE) for manufacturing and electronic design automation (EDA). With their respective x86 processor lineups, Intel and AMD continue to battle for bragging rights,

I recently worked on a whitepaper for Dremio funded by Amazon Web Services around the topic of data analytics. You can download the paper @ TWDI – Building a Modern Architecture for Interactive Analytics on Amazon S3 Using Dremio | Transforming Data with Intelligence (tdwi.org)

In February, I had the opportunity to work with smart folks Seqera Labs, a leader in life sciences pipeline management solutions and the developers of NextFlow located in Barcelona Spain. We collaborated to produce their first ever video Podcast – an interview with Phil Ewels of SciLifeLab Sweden, part of NGI Stockholm.
