Measuring Success in Semiconductor Design Optimization, What Metrics Matter?

Together with cloud providers and our other HPC partners, Intel is driving the performance and flexibility that are critical to running advanced HPC workloads in the cloud. We collaborate across our HPC ecosystem to help cloud providers offer accelerated, secure, and agile environments using our latest technologies, such as Intel® Xeon® processors. As cloud customers continue exploring new possibilities and applications for HPC, Intel is dedicated to facilitating their success. Intel works with HPC partners from various industries to enable forward-thinking cloud use cases such as bursting, AI, and advanced analytics. Learn how Intel collaborates with Public and Private Cloud Service Providers to optimize HPC workloads for fast, cost-effective execution on Intel-based Cloud Instances.

In this session, cloud expert Rick Watkins presents three actionable HPC and cloud models designed to optimize innovation potential and longtime ROI, whether your team is small and nimble or maintains its own large compute infrastructure. Engineers interested in boosting performance with HPC will come away with an understanding of what HPC and cloud model could be right for them – as well as a high-level appreciation for the critical role that IT infrastructure optimization plays in maintaining your team’s competitive edge, and all the complexity involved in making appear simple.

Semiconductor companies are taking advantage of Microsoft Azure HPC infrastructures for their complex electronic design automation (EDA) software. When one of the largest semiconductor companies asked for help using Azure to run its EDA workloads, Microsoft teamed up with Altair. This presentation will outline how Microsoft used Altair Breeze™ to diagnose I/O patterns, choose the workflow segments best suited for the cloud, and right-size the Azure infrastructure. The result was better performance and lower costs for our semiconductor customer. This presentation by Michael Requa from Microsoft aired during the 2021 Altair HPC Summit, and is about 29 minutes long. View all HPC Summit 2021 Presentations

Altair's Stuart Taylor, director of enterprise computing core development, gives you an inside look at the license-first scheduling strategy the world's top technology companies use to increase the amount of high-performance, high-throughput computing jobs that can be executed across a finite resource set.

"Watch your money," says Altair chief scientist and Runtime founder Andrea Casotto, explaining how Rapid Scaling can bring the cost of your cloud computing as close as possible to exact demand.

Very large-scale integration (VLSI) for integrated circuits combines millions of transistors on a single chip, so design efficiency is critical. In this on-demand video presentation, Altair's Stuart Taylor discusses design flow mapping and optimization for VLSI and demonstrates Altair FlowTracer™ for advanced flow development and execution.

Presentation by Zohar Levy & Ketan Kulkarni, EC Experts at the ATCx in Israel, Netanya on October 30, 2019.

In her presentation at SC21, Dr. Rosemary Francis explains how developers and administrators get the most out of their workload managers using the wide range of Altair enterprise computing solutions running SUSE Enterprise Linux.
