GPU in EDU at Carnegie Mellon University

Cambridge Computer and NVIDIA teamed to lead a seminar last week at Carnegie Mellon University to discuss how new HPC and GPU architectures impact research computing in higher ed. We had a full room plus a bunch of people attending remotely. There was some lively debate and a lot of great ideas shared. We gave our own version of the NVIDIA GTC recap and led a discussion on the new chip architectures (Grace, Hopper, Blackwell). We also had presentations from Nvidia on the various products and services that they offer that are lesser known to their client base. This was a great chance for different stakeholders in the university to get together in person and bat around ideas, common challenges, etc.
