What does it take to bring #cloud elasticity to #HPC without losing performance? My keynote at HPC-AI Swiss Conference shared our work on Acceleration as a Service #XaaS with performance-portable containers + #serverless for HPC. Many thanks to organizers for the warm reception and great questions!

I had a wonderful time at #HiPEAC26 in Kraków! It was great to connect with the European #HPC and cloud community. We presented our work on Cppless - #serverless functions as first-class citizensin C++ 🚀 Paper ➡️ spcl.inf.ethz.ch/Publications... Code ➡️ github.com/spcl/cppless @hipeac.bsky.social

Serverless simplifies deployment but complicates performance analysis. Join our tutorial at #HiPEAC2026 to learn how serverless operates and evaluate FaaS systems with the benchmarking suite SeBS! 🗓️ Monday, 26 January 2026, 14:00-17:30 📌 HiPEAC 2026, Cracow ➡️ www.hipeac.net/2026/krakow/...

From Fortran to data-centric programming to accelerate climate simulations - our team has won this year's ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling! Congratulations to our entire team - Alexandru, Yakup, Pratyai, Ben, and @thoefler.bsky.social! #SC25 #HPC #HPCignites

Sadly, I won't be able to attend #SC25 due to medical reasons. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to @thoefler.bsky.social presenting our performance-portable XaaS containers! If you're interested in #HPC containers, then join us on Tuesday, 3:30pm, Room 275 - eager to hear your thoughts! #HPCignites

This year at #SC25, we will present XaaS containers, the Best Paper Finalist at 🏆! We propose a new paradigm for performance portability to bridge the gap between #cloud productivity and #HPC performance 🚀 #HPCignites @thoefler.bsky.social

🚀Cppless enables single-source #serverless programming in C++! No more splitting functions from the main code - just add a few lines to accelerate your program by offloading to systems like AWS Lambda. Our paper on Clang-based #FaaS for C++ has just been accepted at ACM TACO.

I will be attending EuroSys/ASPLOS 2025, where I will present our work on next-generation #serverless benchmarking. If you're going to be there and would like to talk about serverless, please feel free to reach out! This year, we present two papers and a poster!

Reasoning language models (#RLMs), such as o1 or QwQ, have redefined AI's problem-solving capabilities by extending #LLMs with advanced reasoning mechanisms. Yet, their high costs, proprietary nature, and complex architectures present accessibility and scalability challenges.

Congratulations to Marcin Kopic and @thoefler.bsky.social @SPCL ETH Zurich for #SC24 Best Research Poster Award!

Kyle Chard opens panelists statements at #SC24 panel on #serverless #HPC. Join us in room B314!

The #SC24 panel on #serverless #HPC happens today at 10:30 am! Looking forward to the discussion on the future Cloud & HPC with our panelists: @ianfoster42.bsky.social, @thoefler.bsky.social, Satoshi Matsuoka, Kyle Chard, and Devesh Tiwari!

Fun times at the #SC24 CANOPIE workshop panel on aXeleration as a Service (XaaS) at #SC24. Nice discussion with @ernstdj.bsky.social, Ian Foster, and Thomas Schulthess! Nicely moderated by @mcopik.bsky.social.

Great attendance at the #SC24 panel on performance portable containers #XaaS! Interesting conclusions on the future of #HPC and #cloud, in a discussion between @danernst.bsky.social, @ianfoster42.bsky.social, Torsten Hoefler, and Thomas Schulthess!

Can high-performance containers offer performance portability and unified abstraction for the converged #HPC and #Cloud? Join us at the #SC24 CANOPIE-HPC workshop for a panel on the changing HPC landscape. 📅 Sunday, 17th November ⏰ 11:40 AM EST 🏢 #Supercomputing Room B313

I have the pleasure of moderating two panels this year at #SC24, and the second one focuses on the core part of my PhD thesis: #serverless #HPC. Join us next Thursday and participate in the discussion on the future of #cloud programming models #supercomputing!

Is #serverless a fad that will disappear in a few years, or will it accelerate #HPC - #Cloud convergence and change the #Supercomputing landscape? Join us at the #SC24 panel "Serverless HPC: Challenges, Opportunities, and Future Prospects for Accelerated Cloud Computing"!
