We present $\texttt{SIMULATeQCD}$, HotQCD's software for performing lattice QCD calculations on GPUs. Started in late 2017 and intended as a full replacement of the previous single GPU lattice QCD code used by the HotQCD collaboration, our…
Quantum computers have demonstrated utility in simulating quantum systems beyond brute-force classical approaches. As the community builds on these demonstrations to explore using quantum computing for applied research, algorithms and…
With technology scaling down, hundreds and thousands processing elements (PEs) can be integrated on a single chip. Network-on-chip (NoC) has been proposed as an efficient solution to handle this distinctive challenge. In this thesis, we…
