Nutanix Labs Helps Local Computer Science Honours Students Clinch BSG Award - IT News Africa - Up to date technology news, IT news, Digital news, Telecom news, Mobile news, Gadgets news, Analysis and Reports

Image sourced from Glassdoor Nutanix, a leader in software for private, hybrid and multicloud computing, recently assisted two Computer Science honours students from the University of Cape Town (UCT) in South Africa, with the provision of the infrastructure needed to support the completion of their final honours practical.  The students, Brooke Stewart and Christina Spanellis, were given access to an Ubuntu Virtual machine with 3 8 Intel Xeon Gold 6254 CPUs @ 3.10GHz. and 32GB RAM from Nutanix Labs on which to run their project titled “Evolving Robot Bodies and Brains – a Computer Science Honours project investigating the impact of a complexity cost and environmental complexity on artificially evolved robots”. Based on the results of their findings and the calibre of their final assignment, the all-female team were both awarded the BSG prize for the best Honours project at UCT.

“Our project had unforeseen challenges. One of which was the fact that we needed to extend the capabilities of the simulator for us to be able to run our revolutions,” said Stewart. “Another challenge was that we needed to run our computationally expensive, lengthier simulations on a high-performance computing cluster. “However, our project code was in C++, meaning it needs to be compiled where one intends to run it. In short, our project had multiple dependencies and required multiple external libraries, when all added together it means that the process itself would be an exceptionally time-consuming task. We realised too late that we did not have the admin privileges required to install what was needed on the clusters, meaning that we wouldn’t have been able to complete the project within the time available,” she added.

Intel 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable (Ice Lake SP) Review: Generationally Big, Competitively Small

The launch of Intel’s Ice Lake Xeon Scalable processors has been in the wings for a number of years. The delays to Intel’s 10nm manufacturing process have given a number of setbacks to all of Intel’s proposed 10nm product lines, especially the high performance Xeon family: trying to craft 660 mm2 of silicon on a process is difficult at the best of times. But Intel has 10nm in a place where it is economically viable to start retailing large Xeon processors, and the official launch today of Intel’s 3 rd Generation Xeon Scalable is on the back of over 200,000+ units shipped to major customers to date. The new flagship, the Xeon Platinum 8380, has 40 cores, offers PCIe 4.0, and takes advantage of the IPC gain in Intel’s Sunny Cove processor core. We’re testing it against the best in the market.
