About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

AMD Expands High Performance Compute Fund to Aid Researchers Solving the World's Toughest Challenges

By: 3BL Media

AMD Combines HPC Fund with Xilinx Heterogeneous Accelerated Compute Cluster Program and Adds Seven Petaflops of Supercomputer Capacity to Power Groundbreaking Research

SOURCE: AMD

DESCRIPTION:

SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 2, 2022 /3BL Media/ - AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the expansion of its High Performance Compute (HPC) Fund with the addition of 7 petaflops of computing power to assist global researchers working to solve the most demanding challenges facing society today. AMD also announced that the AMD HPC Fund will now integrate Xilinx Heterogeneous Accelerated Compute Clusters (HACC) program, providing researchers with access to AMD EPYC™ processors, AMD Instinct™ accelerators, Xilinx Alveo™ accelerators and Xilinx Versal™ ACAPs to advance research in areas including climate change, health care, transportation, big data and more.

The new contribution brings the total amount of computing capacity donated by AMD to over 20 petaflops with a market value of more than $31 million, as of May 2022. The additional computing resources will build on the AMD COVID-19 HPC Fund that was established in 2020 to provide research institutions with computing resources to accelerate medical research on COVID-19 and other diseases.

“We are witnessing a scientific computing revolution where high-performance computing resources vastly reduce the time to insights and discovery,” said Mark Papermaster, executive vice president and chief technology officer, AMD. “By broadening the AMD HPC Fund beyond COVID-19, we are putting leading-edge compute power in the hands of those that need it most - the researchers solving the world’s toughest problems.”

To date, AMD has donated computing systems or cloud-based computing capacity to more than 28 institutions across eight countries. Nearly 6,000 researchers have received access to AMD technologies for their projects, resulting in 55 papers published so far on key issues like disparities in COVID-19 vaccination rates by race and ethnicity and improvements in the classification of breast cancer imagery through deep vision techniques.

“As a leader in high-performance and adaptive computing, AMD has the unique ability and opportunity to support institutions that are conducting groundbreaking research for the benefit of our communities and the planet,” said Susan Moore, AMD corporate vice president of corporate responsibility and international government affairs and AMD Foundation president. “The AMD HPC Fund exemplifies our commitment to our digital impact goal that 100 million people will benefit from AMD technology and philanthropy initiatives for STEM education, scientific research and the workforce of the future by 2025.”

AMD will grant cloud-based access to global universities and research institutions with support from leading system partners Supermicro and WEKA.io. Research institutions and universities can apply for the new round of computing power grants by submitting their application here.
