Cut Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Hallucinations by 50%
Most teams hit the same wall with enterprise AI: LLMs that hallucinate, pipelines that don’t scale, and infrastructure that’s harder to design than the models themselves.
What Is Intelligent BOM Management? A Guide to Smarter Product Development
Learn how intelligent Bill of Materials (BOM) management helps teams collaborate, reduce errors, and bring innovative products to market faster with cloud-based PLM tools.
The Los Alamos National Laboratorys Institutional Computing Program is deploying the Appro Xtreme-X Supercomputer. This deployment represents approximately $10 Million in production computing capability.
The Xtreme-X Supercomputer (named Mustang) will be used to address LANLs HPC needs for unclassified scientific computing and included complete factory-integrated and pre-tested systems with HPC professional services and support. The system will provide high performance computing resources to a variety of activities at Los Alamos, including ocean, wildfire, plasma physics, materials and nuclear energy. The Climate, Ocean, and Sea Ice Modeling (COSIM) project, a part of the climate modeling program in the DOEs Office of Science, is a partner with Institutional Computing in this acquisition.
The Appro Xtreme-X Supercomputer consists of two processors per node with a total of 38,400 cores, 353 Tflops based on the current 12-core AMD Opteron 6100 Series processor. The system is interconnected with single-rail 4x Mellanox QDR IB (Quad Data Rate InfiniBand) and integrated with the Tri-Laboratory Common Computing Environment (CCE) software stack built from Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution and additional third-party and open source software.
