Christoph Hagleitner works at IBM Research – Europe in Ruschlikon, Switzerland. His research focuses on the system architecture of heterogeneous computing systems for AI & HPC. After obtaining a Ph.D. degree for his thesis on CMOS-integrated Microsensors from ETH Zurich in 2002, he joined IBM Research, Zurich to work on the system architecture of a novel probe-storage device. In 2008, he established a new research group in the area of accelerator technologies. The team initially focused on accelerator cores for security and business applications and gradually expanded its research to large-scale heterogeneous systems for AI & HPC.
Presentation Title:
Heterogeneous System Architecture for Future AI/HPC Applications: From Chiplets to Services
Presentation Abstract:
Scientific progress and economic efficiency critically depend on the ability to combine emerging AI capabilities with “classic” data-analytics and simulation.
The resulting complex workloads present varying compute, memory, and interconnect requirements to the future AI/HPC systems on which they will be deployed. Innovation and standardization across the full stack ranging from chiplets to services will be required to address the technical challenges.
