Why AI Is a Slam Dunk for the NBA
Thanks to the advent of player-tracking data in the NBA and the use of machine learning software running on powerful servers, we’re on the cusp of having some fouls called automatically in professional basketball. But that is just the beginning of what AI can do in the NBA, according to Dwight Lutz, the senior director of basketball strategy and analytics for the Atlanta Hawks.

HPC for COVID-19 News
The History of Supercomputing vs. COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic poses a greater challenge to the high-performance computing community than any before. HPCwire‘s coverage of the supercomputing response to the pandemic began in early February 2020 and has since encompassed hundreds of articles involving hundreds of supercomputers, universities, and companies as they pivoted the world’s most advanced systems to battle a 21st-century plague. This timeline — regularly updated to reflect ongoing developments in the pandemic — highlights a small fraction of this important work.

A Supercomputer Analyzed Covid-19 — and an Interesting New Theory Has Emerged
The Summit supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Lab set about crunching data on more than 40,000 genes from 17,000 genetic samples in an effort to better understand Covid-19. When Summit was done analyzing the 2.5 billion genetic combinations, researchers analyzed the results. It was, in the words of Dr. Daniel Jacobson, lead researcher and chief scientist for computational systems biology at Oak Ridge, a “eureka moment.” The computer had revealed a new theory about how Covid-19 impacts the body: the bradykinin hypothesis.
