Questions for the Panel
We also include some questions from previous BoFs to use as seed questions for further discussion.
1) What are the goals of your testbed program?
2) How are you envisioning using your testbeds to evaluate energy efficient computing technologies?
3) How are your testbeds being prepared for post-exascale evaluations?
- (optional) If you could change one architectural component of your test bed to make it better, what would this component be and why?
4) What strategies are you using to evaluate AI workloads, especially with the influx of new AI accelerators?
5) Lessons learned: Can you share the key successes and challenges experienced during your testbed programs?
You can also revisit information on some of our previous BoFs 2023, 2021, 2019 and 2018 and also links to several advanced architecture testbeds and the resources they offer.
