The HPC Bottlenecks of Amdahl’s Other Law
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/the-hpc-bottlenecks-of-amdahls-other-law/Written by Steven Woo As we discussed in our previous blog post, there is a sense of growing concern in the high-performance computing (HPC) space over successive generations of supercomputers that have continued to move further and further away from architectural balance between compute and memory resources. This is because compute performance has improved at […]
Protecting medical devices with a hardware-based root of trust
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/protecting-medical-devices-with-a-hardware-based-root-of-trust/Nicole Wetsman of The Verge recently penned an in-depth article about the many security issues plaguing the global health care sector. Protecting medical devices is not an easy job. As Wetsman observes, most hospitals and physicians are unprepared to counter critical cybersecurity threats, even though they pose a clear and present danger to public health. […]

Understanding Side-channel Attacks, Their Implications, and How to Test a System’s Resistance
https://go.rambus.com/understanding-side-channel-attacks#new_tabSide-channel attacks are low cost, non-invasive, and can completely subvert an electronic system’s security. Watch this webinar to learn more about the nature of side channel attacks and how testing can reveal a system’s ability to handle this threat.
Reassessing the HPC Memory Hierarchy
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/reassessing-the-hpc-memory-hierarchy/Written by Steven Woo As we’ve discussed in previous Rambus blog posts, high-performance computing (HPC) memory bandwidth and capacity are continuing to fall further and further behind the performance of compute engines. Consequently, memory and I/O subsystems are becoming increasingly larger bottlenecks that must be carefully managed by applications and operating systems. There is also […]
An Introduction to HPC computing
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/an-introduction-to-hpc-computing/Written by Steven Woo Dominated by the United States, Japan and China, the high-performance computing (HPC) space is driven by an insatiable demand for ever-higher performance and greater power efficiency. With each new supercomputer debut, the above-mentioned trio sets progressively higher bars with the goal of capturing the highest Top500 score. Summit, Sierra and Sunway […]
Silex malware bricks unprotected IoT devices
https://www.rambus.com/blogs/silex-malware-bricks-unprotected-iot-devices/Earlier this summer, a new strain of destructive malware known as Silex began to spread and effectively brick IoT devices. As ZDNet’s Catalin Cimpanu reports, Silex victims can resurrect their devices by manually reinstalling firmware. However, most device owners typically consider the re-installation process to be overly complicated and time consuming. “Silex works by trashing […]
