Artificial intelligence is driving a major sea change in the high-performance computing world.At the Supercomputing 2023 event last week, experts from throughout the HPC ecosystem gathered in Denver, Colorado, to assess the state of their industry. What they found was a technology on the brink of a transformative era, one that will be driven by the integration of AI in traditional computing, combined with advancements in semiconductor and cloud architectures

High-performance computing is brimming with several developments: from the artificial intelligence infusion to innovations in exascale and quantum computing.Broadcom Inc., a stalwart in ethernet networking, is at the forefront of pushing the boundaries in AI and machine learning. The company has introduced the concept of “ultra ethernet,” a term that encapsulates the integration of intelligence into networking infrastructure, according to Hemal Shah (pictured, left), distinguished engineer and system, software and standards architect at Broadcom.“At Broadcom, we have been doing ethernet networking for decades now,” he said
