HARDWARE-SOFTWARE COLLABORATION DRIVES THE FUTURE OF CAE

whitePaper | March 31, 2022

Today’s product design engineers challenge the limits of computing with computer-aided engineering (CAE) applications. By accelerating the process of pinpointing design flaws and producing higher-quality, better-performing products, these applications enable manufacturers to improve designs and reduce time to market. The key to improving CAE performance and reaching key insights faster is a combination of specific 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors suited for CAE workloads, the HPE Apollo 2000 Gen10 Plus scale-out server, and close collaboration between Intel®, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), and CAE application vendors

AI Requires Tailored DRAM Solutions

whitePaper | April 6, 2020

For over 30 years, DRAM has continuously adapted to the needs of each new wave of hardware spanning PCs, game consoles, mobile phones and cloud servers. AI/ML may be the biggest challenge yet. Artificial intelligence is the study and application of providing hardware and software that attempt to emulate human intelligence. Therefore, as human beings adapt to different tasks, AI must adapt. Indeed, if AI is to scale to the diversity of human tasks, it will not be via a single, monolithic solution. For every task a human can perform, AI must adapt through a unique combination of hardware and software components.

Microclimate Simulation for Urban Design

whitePaper | June 9, 2022

The built environment needs continuous adaptation to global population changes, the adverse effects of climate change, and evolving occupant requirements. To meet these evolving challenges, architects and engineers require access to highfidelity design simulation tools to accurately predict complex behavior in buildings and cities. SimScale enables architects and engineers to integrate physics-based simulation into their entire design workflow starting from the earliest stages where critical design decisions are made. Rapid assessments of the microclimate impacts on design for example, are now possible using the simple and intuitive workflow in SimScale
