The evolution of AI workloads has profoundly influenced hardware design, shifting from single-GPU systems to massive rack-based clusters optimized for parallelism and efficiency. As outlined in this Hot Chips 2025 tutorial, this transformation began with foundational models like AlexNet in 2012 and continues with today’s… Read More
The evolution of hyperscale data center infrastructure to support the processing of trillions of parameters for large language models has created some rather substantial design challenges. These massive processing facilities must scale to hundreds of thousands of accelerators with highly efficient and fast connections.… Read More
The march toward higher-speed networking continues to be guided by the same core objectives as has always been : increase data rates, lower latency, improve reliability, reduce power consumption, and maintain or extend reach while controlling cost. For the next generation of high-speed interconnects, these requirements … Read More
At the recent IPSoC Conference in Silicon Valley, Aparna Tarde gave a talk on the importance of Next-Gen Interconnects to scale AI infrastructure. Aparna is a Sr. Technical Product Manager at Synopsys. A synthesis of the salient points from her talk follows.
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) is fundamentally… Read More
