Argonne National Laboratory Makes Graphcore Bow Ipus Available To Researchers Worldwide

The US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory is making the latest generation of Graphcore Bow IPUs available for free to scientific researchers around the world. Access to Argonne’s 22 PetaFLOPS Bow Pod system is open to the global research community via an approved proposal submission. Argonne researchers have already used their Graphcore system to explore optimisation of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), and have also used IPUs to accelerate the training of GNNs in computational chemistry.
