HC31-K1: Delivering the Future of High-Performance Computing

Keynote 1, Hot Chips 31 (2019), Monday, August 19, 2019 Dr. Lisa Su, CEO, AMD From medicine to the frontiers of scientific research, manufacturing and entertainment — the demand for computing and graphics technologies continues growing. While we are entering a golden age of high-performance computing, it is increasingly clear that the techniques the industry has used to reach this point will not deliver similar advances over the coming years. As the gains from Moore’s Law have slowed in recent years, the industry has begun to focus on new areas of innovation to maintain the historical pace of performance improvements. AMD CEO Lisa Su discusses new techniques in system architecture, silicon design and software that will enable future generations of computing and graphics products to deliver more performance with greater efficiency.
