EPI team attended this year’s European Forum for Electronic Components and Systems in Helsinki, Finland. EPI exhibited posters and other materials at its booth, receiving many interested visitors and attendees.

EPI team attended the Supercomputing conference in Denver, with its own exhibition booth and four more shared partners’ booths exhibiting EPI materials. In addition to that, EPI representatives held several presentations and invited talks:

At the Arm User Group meeting, Yingchih Yang from Atos presented the EPI Design Updated, while Dirk Pleiter from Julich presented “Linear algebra on Arm-based platforms: From Neon to SVE”. EPI Chairman of the Board, Jean-Marc Denis attended the ETP4HPC BoF with an invited talk, and also the ASC HPC Connection Workshop with a talk titled “Recent Developments on EPI Program”.

Peak performance: Francesco Morsiani

EPI’s partners FORTH and BSC attended the HiPEAC Computer Systems Week in Bilbao, Spain, and presented EPI flyers and posters to interested attendees.

EPI industrial partner, Menta, attended the Arm TechCon in San Jose, California with their exhibition space at which they offered EPI materials for the interested attendees.

Fabrizio Magugliani from E4 attended IDCS2019: the 12th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems, delivering the E4 presentation. The speakers listed in the rich agenda detailed how the rapidly evolving technology for Distributed Computing Systems enables using more computation and ‘intelligence’ at the Edge, and how to maximize the effectiveness of different architectures and components. While these components are ideal for analyzing data at the Edge, more elaborate analysis demands the use of more powerful systems. Having the same Instruction set at the Edge (running Arm devices) as well as in the centralized computing facility is definitely a value, making the EPI processor ideal for seamless integration of the data streams with the EPI-powered centralized facility.

Jean-Marc Denis, EPI Chair of the Board, attended the 75th HPC User forum where he presented the road so far, the latest developments and the Initiative’s future steps.

Jean-Marc Denis, EPI Chair of the Board, attended the 74th HPC User forum where he presented the road so far, the latest developments and the Initiative future steps.

Fabrizio Magugliani from E4 Computer Engineering presented at the workshop “Edge computing: Quando il Cloud è troppo lontano”, which confirmed the need for integrating the different streams of data (coming from IoT, the Edge, Industry 4.0 and similar sources) in a consistent view, including the pre-processing of data at the Edge and a HPC-powered analysis in a centralized facility, applying AI and HPDA techniques to the streams and then storing and capitalizing on the ‘knowledge’ extracted from the data. He introduced the roadmap and goals of the EPI and highlighted that the roadmap is fully consistent with the computational need of such a chain of processing.

EPI consortium partner, Kalray, hosted a booth at AutoSens, which entailed EPI flyer materials.
