"The Interview" with The Next Platform

On this episode of “The Interview” with The Next Platform we talk with Heather Ames, a co-founder at bioinspired AI startup, Neurala about the co-evolution of neurology and computing into a range of real-world use cases for AI.

On today’s episode of “The Interview” with The Next Platform we talk with one of the creators of HPCG, Sandia National Lab’s Dr. Michael Heroux. Interestingly, Heroux co-developed HPCG with one of the founders of the Top 500 LINPACK benchmark, prompting many early on to suggest HPCG was going to compete with the Top500 as the go-to benchmark for the HPC community.

On today’s episode of “The Interview” with The Next Platform, we discuss the role of higher level interfaces to common machine learning and deep learning frameworks, including Caffe.

We talk with the iRODS consortium about what the technology and group aims to provide for scientific and enterprise users.

On today’s episode of “The Interview” with The Next Platform we talk about the growing problem of networks within networks (within networks) and what that means for future algorithms and systems that will support smart cities, smart grids, and other highly complex and interdependent optimization problems.

Our focus for today will be on stream processing in enterprise and how it has evolved in recent years.

Here to talk about this is Nathan Trueblood, a veteran of companies like Mirantis, Western Digital, EMC, and UC Berkeley who is now VP of product management at DataTorrent—a company of many ex-Yahoo’ers and Hadoopers

On today’s episode we discuss the state of good old fashioned tape storage in 2018 with long time industry veteran Matt Starr.

Matt’s been at tape giant Spectra Logic for 24 years where he’s seen a great many trends come and go as CTO. Among other things at Spectra he’s served as the lead engineering architect for the design and production of Spectra’s TSeries tape library family, which is still a core product.

Advances in machine learning are removing some of that time-consuming knob tweaking, according to Tomer Morad who is CEO and co-founder of Concertio. His company has been working on the auto-tunng problem and today we will talk about what it takes to develop smarter system optimization.

On today’s episode of “The Interview” with The Next Platform we talk with Doug Miles who runs the PGI compilers and tools team at Nvidia about the past, present, and future of OpenACC with an emphasis on what lies ahead in the next release.

We talk about the evolution of geospatial information systems and how the field is being revolutionized by more sophisticated deep learning and machine learning frameworks.
