Scaling the Field: Collaboration is of the Essence
Graduate student growth continues to outpace faculty growth in computer science. Because producing successful graduate students requires publishing with them, each faculty member should be publishing more, but they are not. If research quality has dropped over time, as some perceive, the reason in not an increase in per-author output.
Accelerator-Level Parallelism (ALP)
The demand for computing performance continues to grow exponentially in part due to video and machine learning processing for applications like augmented/virtual reality and self-driving vehicles. However, the underlying advances (Moore’s Law and Dennard...
The First Trillion-Transistor Chip: A New Design Space
There was stunning news at the HotChips-31 conference held at Stanford Memorial Auditorium last week. Cerebras, a startup company working on machine learning accelerators in stealth mode, finally came out and presented a groundbreaking accelerator chip packed with 1.2...

Deep Neural Network Acceleration Beyond Chips
This week Cerebras announced a bold design to accelerate deep neural networks with silicon that is not cut into chips. AI and Moore’s Law: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is much in the news for what it can do today and the promise of what it can do tomorrow (CCC/AAAI...Subscribe
