US gaming and computer graphics giant Nvidia said Monday that it will build the nation’s most powerful generative AI cloud supercomputer called Israel-1 which will be based on a new locally developed high-performance ethernet platform.
Valued at several hundred million dollars, Israel-1, which Nvidia said would be one of the world’s fastest AI supercomputers, is expected to start early production by the end of 2023.
“AI is the most important technology force in our lifetime,” said Gilad Shainer, Senior Vice President of high performance computing (HPC) and networking at Nvidia. “Israel-1 represents a major investment that will help us drive innovation in Israel and globally.”

A world-first one-way superconductor could make computers 400 times faster
A world-first one-way superconductor could make computers 400 times faster
In a world-first, a team of researchers from TU Delft demonstrated a one-way superconductor with zero resistance that blocks any current coming in the opposite direction.
The discovery could enable massive energy savings while making computers up to 400 times faster, according to a report in SciTech Daily.
Associate professor Mazhar Ali and a team at TU Delft published their new research in the…

Wafer Scale Engine
Computational Fluid Dynamics is a promising application of Waferscale computing. If it becomes mainstream we may see the rebirth of the mainframe. But what's really exciting is this development along with chiplet and silicon to silicon bonding may herald the beginning of 3D logic in semiconductors. this is great in terms of reviving the push to increase transistor "density" by essentially doubling and tripling silicon "depth" without sacrificing latency or bandwidth. but the problem of heat remains and is exacerbated by this increased density.
A couple solutions to this problem range from marginal adjustments to exotic reinventions of basic design. Among them are improved cooling systems, introducing thermal conductors in between layers to collect heat, reconfiguring transistor floorplans to better distribute heat, and switching to new materials with higher heat tolerances (GaN comes to mind). and with such massive size, and considerable heat, warping becomes a pressing concern. The ideal solution, therefore would be to consume less power in the first place.
With the loss of Dennard scaling, traditional CMOS seems ill equipped to reduce its power consumption. Would the use of high temperature superconductors like YBCO (Yttrium-Barium-Copper Oxide) be able to usher in such power improvements?
