Tachyum will be a part of Autumn ITAPA, the leading conference on digitization and new technologies in Slovakia. The ITAPA events are present for more than 2 decades in Europe’s discourse on digital transformation. Tachyum will contribute to a discussion about the vision of the digital world.

Being part of the SC Conference enhances your career – whether you are presenting new research, showcasing innovative work or practices, helping teach the next generation, or competing for peak performance. The SC selection process is highly competitive and being selected is extremely rewarding.

Tachyum has been a part of the “When will the computer take over us?” discussion about advances in computers at the Technology Festival ITAPA EXPO. Early computers were as big as several rooms and did about 5000 calculations per second. Now we move into the era of supercomputers that will reach the speed and capacity of the human brain and fit into one room.

Rob Reiner, Tachyum’s Director of Product Marketing, spoke at the 79^th HPC User Forum. The event, established in 1999 to promote the health of the global HPC industry and address issues of common concern to users, was run by Hyperion Research.

Tachyum was a part of Spring ITAPA, the leading conference on digitization and new technologies in Slovakia. Dr. Radoslav Danilak, discussed with other thought leaders about megatrends of the new world.

“Paradoxically, the new world of chaos may be a rare historical opportunity for Slovakia to deeply transform its growth paradigm to achieve greater prosperity, sustainability, productivity and change the region into a home of talent and innovation. Slovakia must choose one domain where it could set the tone. A domain where everyone is on the same starting line. This could be artificial intelligence (AI) and the fastest AI supercomputer in the world that can be built at a price that Slovakia can afford. If Slovakia does not leave its comfort zone and remains satisfied with the average results, it will be in the perception of the world as a country neighboring the war, which deserves credit for helping its neighbor, but has not brought anything new to the world,“ said Radoslav Danilak.

Radoslav Danilak took part in a discussion on the occasion of GLOBSEC’s Danube Tech Valley Initiative (DTVI) launch. The initiative is aiming at accelerating the innovation potential of the Danube region.

Joint statement of the Federal Chancellor of the Republic of Austria Karl Nehammer, the Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic Eduard Heger and GLOBSEC representatives was published.

Radoslav Danilak presented at 29^th HPC Connection Workshop Digital. It is an international High Performance Computing event organized by the Asia Supercomputer Community and Inspur Group.

Tachyum took part in ISC High Performance 2022 Exhibition and conference. Rob Reiner, Product Marketing Director, Tachyum, presented at the HPC Solutions Forum on theme “The Convergence of HPC and AI in a Software Composable Homogenous Data Center”.

Along with Slavo Matasovsky, Senior AI Architect at Tachyum, they showcased Prodigy’s advanced AI features with a virtual product demonstration that highlighted its ability to scale deep learning by utilizing low-precision data types and sparsity to optimize performance and memory utilization.

Michal Chovanec, an AI Researcher at Tachyum, explained the definition of RL (Reinforcement Learning), the differences between supervised and reinforcement learning, and training on a reward and punishment mechanism.

He focused on key highlights in RL such as mastering Atari games and defeating professional human Go players with DeepMind (AlphaGo) or applying OpenAI to “hide-and-seek” robot control hard-exploration problems.

Michal discussed how RL suffers from hard-exploration problems in two Atari games: Montezuma’s revenge and Pitfall!, along with implications to robotics and sparse reward tasks. He also gave a critical view of RL publications and his experience concerning what works and what does not.

Tachyum took part in LEAP, a global and unique event for future technologies and the most disruptive technology professionals from around the world. The event brought together the world’s greatest minds; from leading technology corporations, inspiring pioneers from global start-ups and venture capitalists, with the means to make it all happen.

Tachyum was a highlight among exhibits at Expo Dubai with the world premiere of Human Brain-Scale AI Powered by its Prodigy Universal Processor.

In cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs of the Slovak Republic, Tachyum hosted the event featuring an in-depth discussion on the importance of AI and supercomputers, which will reach human brain-scale AI in 2022

Tachyum joined the largest exhibition of technology, products, solutions, and services in HPC with the boldest, broadest HPC technical program in the multiverse.

Rob Reiner, Product Marketing Director, Tachyum, presented at the Exhibitor Forum on theme HPC Futures and Exascale: “HPC and AI Convergence in a Homogeneous Exascale Cluster”.

Dr. Radoslav Danilak, CEO, Tachyum spoke at an international professional conference about how to make Slovakia the leader of modern Europe and the world and took part in the debate Why do we need a functioning and competitive digital state?

Robert Cisar, Business Development Manager, Tachyum, took part in the panel Why do we need supercomputers? He spoke about the commercial use of supercomputers.

Radoslav Danilak, CEO, Tachyum, spoke at the 10th edition of GLOBSEC Tatra Summit, representing one of the leading platforms in Europe, that has built a community of top statesmen, high-level private sector representatives, visionaries, experts from the most influential European organisations and academia.

Tachyum was a part of Hot Chips event, which provides an opportunity for chip designers, computer architects, system engineers, press and analysts, as well as attendees from national laboratories and academia to mix, mingle and see presentations on the latest technologies and products.

“Bringing together more than 3,500 attendees and exhibitors, this will undeniably be the largest community get together in Europe for high performance computing, machine learning and data analytics.”

Globsec is one of the top strategic conferences globally. The Forum facilitates the free exchange of ideas and provides a meeting place for stakeholders from all sectors of society to actively shape the future we want for us and the generations to come.

Rado Danilak, CEO, Tachyum, spoke on the ITAPA Conferences, which are the largest conferences in Slovakia with the participation of top speakers from Slovakia and abroad, devoted mainly to eGovernment topics.
