#Nvidia's newest top-tier #AI #supercomputers deployed for the first time — #GraceBlackwellUltra Superchip systems deployed at #CoreWeave
#Dell's and CoreWeave's initial rollout involves Dell Integrated Racks equipped with 72 Nvidia #BlackwellUltra #GPU, 36 Arm-based 72-core Grace CPs, and 36 BlueField DPUs per rack. Each #GB300 #NVL72 rack delivers 1.1 ExaFLOPS of dense FP4 inference and 0.36 ExaFLOPS of FP8 training performance, 50% higher compared to a GB200 NVL.

Tom's Hardware · Nvidia's newest top-tier AI supercomputers deployed for the first time — Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip systems deployed at CoreWeaveBy Anton Shilov

Kendrew's 1962 #Nobel lecture is a great read for insight into the history of #structuralbiology, including the massive experimental effort to eke out the structure of #myoglobin. This required calculating Fourier transforms of thousands of reflexions, requiring the latest (at the time) #supercomputers like the first EDSAC digital computer and #IBM 7090

Weather forecasting and climate modeling move closer together

However, current research questions, such as those concerning the regional impacts of anthropogenic #ClimateChange, require that the gap between #weather #forecasting and #climate modeling be gradually closed. This is made possible by modern #supercomputers, which can calculate longer time periods with high spatial resolution.

A team of researchers from the #MPI-M, the #DWD, and other partners has taken on this task and is bringing together what belongs together: the #ICON developments for numerical weather prediction and climate applications.

"Our project has benefited greatly from the fact that the components use the same model structure," says Wolfgang Müller, group leader at MPI-M and lead author of the recently published paper presenting first successes of the project.

Roland Potthast, head of the Department of Meteorological Analysis and Modeling at the DWD, highlights the societal relevance of the work: "The developments help us to take an integrated approach to weather and climate and to provide well-coordinated services ranging from high-resolution weather #forecasts to seasonal and decadal climate forecasts."
