  • Breaking the Hardware Barrier: Software FP8 for Older GPUs

    Breaking the Hardware Barrier: Software FP8 for Older GPUs Deep learning workloads are increasingly memory-bound, with GPU cores sitting idle while waiting for data transfers. FP8 precision solves this on newer hardware, but what about the millions of RTX 30 and 20 series GPUs already deployed? Feather demonstrates that software-based FP8 emulation through bitwise packing…

  • Algorithms and Scientific Software for Quasi-Monte Carlo, Fast Gaussian Process Regression, and Scientific Machine Learning

    Algorithms and Scientific Software for Quasi-Monte Carlo, Fast Gaussian Process Regression, and Scientific Machine Learning arXiv:2511.21915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most scientific domains elicit the development of efficient algorithms and accessible scientific software. This thesis unifies our developments in three broad domains: Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods for efficient high-dimensional integration, Gaussian process (GP) regression for…

  • GDD: Generative Driven Design

    GDD: Generative Driven Design Reflective generative AI software components as a development paradigm Nowhere has the proliferation of generative AI tooling been more aggressive than in the world of software development. It began with GitHub Copilot’s supercharged autocomplete, then exploded into direct code-along integrated tools like Aider and Cursor that allow software engineers to dictate…
