Description

The exascale era in computing has arrived, and that brings up the question of what’s next. We’ll discuss some emerging processor technologies-- molecular storage and computing, quantum computing and neuromorphic chips—with an expert from each of those fields. Learn more about these technologies’ strengths and challenges and how they might be incorporated into tomorrow’s systems.  You’ll meet: Luis Ceze, professor of computer science at the University of Washington and CEO of the AI startup OctoML. Bert de Jong, senior scientist and department head for computational sciences at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and deputy director of the Quantum Systems Accelerator.  Catherine (Katie) Schuman, is a neuromorphic computing researcher and an assistant professor of computer science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

Computers and science are intertwined – and not just as tools that help humans connect and collaborate. With computers, scientists model the earth’s climate, design alternative energy strategies and simulate exploding stars. From laptops to the world’s fastest supercomputers, software innovations and artificial intelligence are reshaping how we interact with mounds of data from healthcare to high-energy physics and how we solve critical problems. Computational science brings together mathematics, computer science and hardware and science expertise to take on these challenges. In this podcast, you’ll meet the scientists doing this work, learn more about their research and gain insights into the workings of this dynamic field.
