Supermicro Systems Selected by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) for COVID-19 Research

The 4U 8 GPU Servers are Part of Turn-Key System Cluster that Delivers up to 11 Petaflops of Computing Power for Cutting-Edge Research

SAN JOSE, California, Oct. 7, 2020 — Super Micro Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMCI), a global leader in enterprise computing, storage, networking solutions, and green computing technology, today announced that LLNL selected Supermicro to provide additional computing capacity and resources for scientists working to find a cure for COVID-19. Supermicro’s 4U 8 GPU servers for this cluster equipped with nearly 1,000 AMD Radeon Instinct™ MI50 graphics accelerators and, combined with AMD’s state-of-the-art EPYC™ 7002 CPUs, expands the cluster to deliver up to 11 Petaflops of computing power for advanced computational workloads.


"Our market-leading 4U 8-GPU servers are optimized for low-latency accelerators performance that leverage our flexible server Building Block Solutions® approach, which enabled LLNL to customize their cluster requirements," said Charles Liang, president, and CEO of Supermicro. "We are extremely pleased to be working with LLNL to help researchers and scientists find a vaccine for the devastating COVID-19 global pandemic—one of the most critical issues facing society. It’s a great pleasure to work with leading organizations requiring high-performance computing (HPC) clusters and machine learning technology to perform advanced computational workloads and conduct groundbreaking research."  

The US Department of Energy is expanding the Corona supercomputer — named for the total solar eclipse of 2017 — with funding from the Corona Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The additional computing power is allowing researchers to better handle the computationally intensive molecular dynamics simulations, which are critical to finding a cure.

"The Corona system is a major advance in our capability for predictive biomedical modeling for COVID-19," said LLNL Deputy Associate Director for Programs Jim Brase, who heads the Lab’s COVID-19 research and rapid response effort. "It allows us to develop advanced simulations of the structure and function of the virus and to use largescale machine learning to discover and optimize new therapeutics. This performance boost will help the Corona system lead the way in accelerating pandemic response."  

"We are excited to collaborate with Supermicro to deliver advanced, AMD-based high-performance computing (HPC) systems to LLNL for pandemic research," said Forrest Norrod, senior vice president and general manager of the Datacenter and Embedded Solutions Business Group at AMD. "Our AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Radeon Instinct GPUs will enable scientists to leverage new compute capacity for computational workloads in genomics, vaccine development, and other scientific disciplines."

Users can not only view, comment, and follow other users, but also participate in polls, games and Q&As. Moreover, users can access a personalised flow of market moving news aggregated from major media outlets, visualised trading indicators, as well as free tutorial videos.

Last but not least, Kikitrade’s ground-breaking Heroes function allows users to compare the historical returns and real-time positions of the community’s best traders meticulously verified by Kikitrade. Through the proprietary, battle-tested social trading engine, users can seamlessly copy every single move of the Heroes they selected, making the top-performing traders work for you in the crypto world.

The 500-piece limited edition’s lightweight ceramic case and rubber bracelet are both in UEFA Champions League core blue. Owners will have various dials to choose from, downloadable from the Hublot Store.

The watch is powered by Wear OS by Google™ and comes loaded with the new Hublot Loves Football UEFA Champions League app. The user will get notifications to alert them to kick-off times (15 minutes before the game starts), goals, penalty, substitutions, yellow and red cards and time added on. The app will also show team line-ups and VAR decisions, and then when it signals that the game is over, it will also begin a countdown to the next fixture. If there are two games taking place at the same time, users will be able to switch between them with a simple screen tap. The app will be also available to existing owners of the Hublot Big Bang e.

Hublot is the number one luxury company in world football. The company was the first Swiss watch brand and first luxury brand to get involved in football, and the first Swiss watch brand to create a luxury connected football watch for the 2018 FIFA Football World Cup™ in Russia. Since it entered football in 2006, Hublot has timed dozens of domestic, European and international football competitions. This season, Hublot is also the Premier League’s Official Timekeeper for the first time, and next year it will time the UEFA European Championships, which have been rescheduled because of the pandemic, but will still be known as UEFA EURO 2020™.

As a powerhouse of 5G and broadcast, a current key issue in the industry, KT SAT’s online booth at the expo is displaying a variety of contents on its satellite technology and services besides its technology for connecting satellite and other networks. The company also actively utilizes the SatelliteAsia conference and booth displays. Visitors may engage in a real-time Q&A session with KT SAT officials.

KT SAT officials are also participating in a forum at the online expo, which explores the next phase of satellite data market in Southeast Asia, and are engaging in panel discussions with global satellite operators.

The panels are devoted to changes and trends in the satellite data market, sustainable growth of mobile backhaul via satellite and solution development in the broadband services market. The participants share their experiences and pursue new opportunities.

KT SAT is also exhibiting its latest broadcast communication services in collaboration with KT Skylife Co., another KT subsidiary and provider of satellite broadcasting services. The exhibition emphasizes the synergy from collaboration between KT’s two major satellite units.
