HiPEAC unveils 2024 Technology Transfer Awards winners
As compute demands grow to meet the insatiable appetite of AI applications, the 2024 cohort of HiPEAC Technology and Transfer Award winners will show how the community is transforming the latest research into solutions fit for intense computing requirements.
From an advanced framework that enhances large language models’ reasoning, to dynamic compilation, to scalable network and memory solutions, the winning technologies will help power the next generation of high-performance AI applications. Other winning tools help users identify the best hardware fit for their AI model, program with real-time requirements, undertake pan-genomic analysis, and power avatars for sign language.
This year, all award winners will be recognised during a ceremony at the HiPEAC conference, which takes place in Barcelona in January. First-time award winners also receive a cash prize of €1,000.
"The influence of AI and machine learning is unmistakeable in these winning projects," said Koen De Bosschere, Coordinator at HiPEAC, from Ghent University. "It’s clear that the European research community is tackling the AI challenge head-on with powerful solutions for industrial and societal challenges."
The HiPEAC Technology Transfer Awards were launched in 2012 with the aim to encourage members to turn their research outputs into industry-ready results. To date, 95 awards have been granted.
