  • PC Gamers Win Big
    CASE STUDY Intel® Solid-State Drives Performance, Storage and the Customer Experience PC Gamers Win Big Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSDs) deliver the ultimate gaming experience, providing dramatic visual and runtime improvements Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSDs) represent a revolutionary breakthrough, delivering a giant leap in storage performance. Designed to satisfy the most demanding gamers, media creators, and technology enthusiasts, Intel® SSDs bring a high level of performance and reliability to notebook and desktop PC storage. Faster load times and improved graphics performance such as increased detail in textures, higher resolution geometry, smoother animation, and more characters on the screen make for a better gaming experience. Developers are now taking advantage of these features in their new game designs. SCREAMING LOAD TiMES AND SMOOTH GRAPHICS With no moving parts, high reliability, and a longer life span than traditional hard drives, Intel Solid-State Drives (SSDs) dramatically improve the computer gaming experience. Load times are substantially faster. When compared with Western Digital VelociRaptor* 10K hard disk drives (HDDs), gamers experienced up to 78 percent load time improvements using Intel SSDs. Graphics are smooth and uninterrupted, even at the highest graphics settings. To see the performance difference in a head-to- head video comparing the Intel® X25-M SATA SSD with a 10,000 RPM HDD, go to www.intelssdgaming.com. When comparing frame-to-frame coherency with the Western Digital VelociRaptor 10K HDD, the Intel X25-M responds with zero hitching while the WD VelociRaptor shows hitching seven percent of the time. This means gamers experience smoother visual transitions with Intel SSDs.

  • Survey and Benchmarking of Machine Learning Accelerators
    1 Survey and Benchmarking of Machine Learning Accelerators Albert Reuther, Peter Michaleas, Michael Jones, Vijay Gadepally, Siddharth Samsi, and Jeremy Kepner MIT Lincoln Laboratory Supercomputing Center Lexington, MA, USA freuther,pmichaleas,michael.jones,vijayg,sid,[email protected] Abstract—Advances in multicore processors and accelerators components play a major role in the success or failure of an have opened the flood gates to greater exploration and application AI system. of machine learning techniques to a variety of applications. These advances, along with breakdowns of several trends including Moore’s Law, have prompted an explosion of processors and accelerators that promise even greater computational and ma- chine learning capabilities. These processors and accelerators are coming in many forms, from CPUs and GPUs to ASICs, FPGAs, and dataflow accelerators. This paper surveys the current state of these processors and accelerators that have been publicly announced with performance and power consumption numbers. The performance and power values are plotted on a scatter graph and a number of dimensions and observations from the trends on this plot are discussed and analyzed. For instance, there are interesting trends in the plot regarding power consumption, numerical precision, and inference versus training. We then select and benchmark two commercially- available low size, weight, and power (SWaP) accelerators as these processors are the most interesting for embedded and Fig. 1. Canonical AI architecture consists of sensors, data conditioning, mobile machine learning inference applications that are most algorithms, modern computing, robust AI, human-machine teaming, and users (missions). Each step is critical in developing end-to-end AI applications and applicable to the DoD and other SWaP constrained users.
