  • The Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory launched a new era for science when it broke the exascale barrier and reached computing speeds once thought impossible. ORNL scientists describe in this video how Frontier came together during a pandemic and supply-chain crisis, and how Frontier will change the world.

    Bravo and congrats to the team! amazing people doing amazing things; but at the end of the day, let this tool unleash the creativity of the users of this great tool to discover and conquer the next frontier by solving complicated and complex problems of the day. I would like to see if Lewis and Clark have been hiding in your team somewhere...Bravo!

    Can any computer simulate the collapse of the North Tower if it does not have the data on the distributions of steel and concrete down the structure? Where have engineers discussed that in two decades?

    • @skierpage
      @skierpage 7 місяців тому

      I don't know if you're hinting at some garbage conspiracy-fueled point, but experts didn't need a supercomputer to predict that the thousands of gallons of jet fuel burning inside the structures would soften the steel leading to collapse after the towers (impressively) withstood the initial collisions. Go read "NOVA | Transcripts | Why the Towers Fell" or The New Yorker's masterful "The Tower Builder."
      From the latter:
      'Mark Loizeaux, the president of Controlled Demolition Incorporated, a Maryland-based family business that specializes in reducing tall buildings to manageable pieces of rubble. “Within a nanosecond,” he told me. “I said, ‘It’s coming down. And the second tower will fall first, because it was hit lower down.’ ”

    It's confusing that interviewees jump between the SI prefix "exa" and the name "quintillion"; I checked Wikipedia and they both mean 10^18, or 1 followed by 18 zeros.
    It's easy to lose sight that "exascale" is 10 times more powerful than the wimpy supercomputer that can "only" perform 1 followed by 17 zeros of floating point operations per second, which in turn is as powerful as 100 petaflop-scale computers.

    • @skierpage

      Wikipedia is your friend (Don't forget to donate!):
      "Frontier uses 9,472 AMD Epyc 7453s "Trento" 64 core 2 GHz CPUs (606,208 cores) and 37,888 Radeon Instinct MI250X GPUs (8,335,360 cores)."
      Presumably someone will build something similar using the latest AMD CPUs and new MI300 GPUs.
      Google has built a supercomputer out of its TPUv5 tensor processing units, I don't know where it scores.
