At SC20: Intel Provides Aurora Update as Argonne Developers Use Intel Xe-HP GPUs in Lieu of ‘Ponte Vecchio’

In an update to yesterday's "Bridge to 'Ponte Vecchio'" story, today we interviewed, Jeff McVeigh, Intel VP/GM of data center XPU products and solutions, who updated us on developments at Intel with direct bearing on Aurora, including the projected delivery of Ponte Vecchio (unchanged); on Aurora's deployment (sooner than forecast yesterday by industry analyst firm Hyperion Research); on Intel's XPU" cross-architecture strategy and its impact on Aurora application development work ongoing at Argonne; and on the upcoming release of the first production version of oneAPI (next month), Intel's cross-architecture programming model for CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs and other accelerators.
