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...

... it is interesting to explore performance against RISC-V CPUs, and indeed the C920 delivers impressive performance compared to other RISC-V hardware, to understand whether the SG2042 is a contender for HPC it is far more instructive to benchmark against CPUs of other architectures that are commonly used for HPC workloads. In this section we compare against CPUs of other architectures that are commonplace in HPC, and these are summarised in Table 3. The AMD EPYC is the Rome series of AMD CPUs, containing the Zen-2 micro architecture and we run this on ARCHER2, a Cray EX and the UK national supercomputer. ...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...
