For each pseudo application, the number of times faster a specific CPU is than the SG2042 at the given number of cores

Whilst RISC-V has grown phenomenally quickly in embedded computing, it is yet to gain significant traction in High Performance Computing (HPC). However, as we move further into the exascale era, the flexibility offered by RISC-V has the potential to be very beneficial in future supercomputers especially as the community places an increased emphasis...

... again, the SG2042 is significantly slower than the other CPUs, with the ThunderX2 sitting around half way between the performance of the x86 CPUs and the SG2042 and this is likely for the same reasons explored for the CG benchmark. Table 4 reports performance for the BT, LU and SP benchmarks and this is expressed as how many times faster this CPU is than the SG2042. Given the findings that the SG2042 struggles to perform when there is increased pressure on the memory subsystem, and based upon the stall numbers reported in Table 1, it was our expectation that the SG2042 would perform best for the BT benchmark and worst for the SP benchmark with the LU benchmark in between. ...Context 2

This is broadly the case based upon the figures in Table 4, where each number reports the number of times faster than each of the other CPUs are for each pseudo application at a specific core count. It can be seen that three other CPUs significantly outperform the SG2042 for the three pseudo applications. ...Similar publications
Scientific applications are starting to explore the viability of quantum computing. This exploration typically begins with quantum simulations that can run on existing classical platforms, albeit without the performance advantages of real quantum resources. In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the incorporation of simulation software...
