Extensions available in RISC-V enable the customizations that make it ideal as a basis for open innovation. Here’s the extension situation as it stands today. RISC-V is a new Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that, over the next decade, will compete with x86-64 and ARM in all areas, from the lowest-end IoT devices all the way […]
This issue’s interview subject, Boston University professor Jonathan Appavoo, stands out in just about any crowd. Unless you’ve spoken with him, however, you won’t know that his unorthodox appearance finds a parallel in the research ideas he pursues to surprising conclusions. A perfect fit for Red Hat, he is passionate about the power of open […]
A partnership between Red Hat and the MOC Alliance is making a low-cost, open production cloud for AI research available to non-commercial users. Much of the innovation in AI is happening in academic institutions. However, applying the potential of artificial intelligence and machine learning to the major social and environmental challenges of our time requires […]
The Dynamic Infrastructure Services Layer (DISL) puts the benefits of programmable hardware within reach. Red Hat Research engineers and edge computing specialists Ahmed Sanaullah and Jason Schlessman demonstrated the potential of the Dynamic Infrastructure Services Layer (DISL) at the October 2023 Red Hat Research Day. The presentation, CoDesign in Action: Dynamic Infrastructure Services Layer (DISL), […]
What is the role of the technologist when building the future? According to Boston University professor Jonathan Appavoo, “We must enable flight, not create bonds!” Professor Appavoo began his career as a Research Staff Member at IBM before returning to academia and winning the National Science Foundation’s CAREER award, the most prestigious NSF award for […]
How do you charge for a cloud? Researchers at the New England Research Cloud have developed a stack to make understanding and charging for usage much simpler. Universities and research institutions are increasingly embracing the cloud as a means to bring down costs and fully utilize the technical resources they have on hand. But creating […]
The research uses for data could be endless, but without meeting stringent privacy requirements, some of the most promising analyses may never begin. “Data is the new oil” is a shorthand generally credited to UK mathematician Clive Humby. The saying got considerable play when “Big Data” was the latest catchphrase around a decade ago. As […]
Open programmable hardware, FPGAs, and RISC-V take center stage in research collaborations. Red Hat Research and its university partners focus strategically on projects with the most promise to shape the future of how we use technology. Each quarter, RHRQ will publish an overview of our research in a specific area, such as AI and machine […]
