DERC’s Marcus Engsig to Speak at Prestigious MATLAB® User Group Meeting in October 2022

TII · Mar 17

Marcus Engsig from DERC will present a paper at the MATLAB User Group Meeting in Abu Dhabi on October 6. The paper, titled ‘Generalization of Higher Order Methods For Fast Iterative Matrix Inversion Compatible With GPU Acceleration’, discusses a novel approach to matrix inversion using GPUs. The method, named Nested Neumann, achieves 4-100x acceleration compared to standard MATLAB methods for large matrices. Why it matters: This research contributes to faster computation in numerical and physical modeling, crucial for processing large datasets in various scientific and engineering applications in the region.

Bring Your Own Kernel! Constructing High-Performance Data Management Systems from Components

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

Holger Pirk from Imperial College London is developing a novel approach to data management system composition called BOSS. The system uses a homoiconic representation of data and code and partial evaluation of queries by components, drawing inspiration from compiler-construction research. BOSS achieves a fully composable design that effectively combines different data models, hardware platforms, and processing engines, enabling features like GPU acceleration and generative data cleaning with minimal overhead. Why it matters: This research on composable database systems can broaden the applicability of data management techniques in the GCC region, enabling more flexible and efficient data processing for various applications.
