On September 5th, the “Computing Industry Development High-Level Think-Share Forum”, a key event of the World Smart Industry Expo 2025, concluded successfully in Chongqing. This dialogue focused on cutting-edge trends in the computing power industry, bringing together leading enterprises, research institutions, and scholars to discuss the development of computing infrastructure and innovative applications. Ms Hongyan Fu, Associate Partner of ClusterTech and CEO of Lianzhi Technology, delivered a keynote speech highlighting the synergy between supercomputing and intelligent computing.
HPC/AI Converged Computing: Addressing Complex Computing Challenges
In her Keynote address, Ms Hongyan Fu analysed the evolving landscape of computing power demands. She pointed out that advancements in fields like AI, biomedicine,climate simulation, and engineering simulation, etc. require an integrated approach of supercomputing and intelligent computing. “The future of computing power development lies in breaking down the barriers between supercomputing and intelligent computing to create a unified computing centre,” she stated. This integration is not merely a technical overlay but a reconstruction of capabilities through architectural innovation.The HPC/AI converged computing architecture, as a new computing paradigm, integrates supercomputing's precision with intelligent computing's adaptability into a unified system, thus enhancing efficiency and supporting digital transformation in industries.
AI for Science Benchmark Example: CHESS Empowers Biotechnology Innovation
During the "Exhibition of Typical Cases Demonstrating Computing Power Empowering New Productive Forces" held concurrently at the Expo, ClusterTech's self-developed HPC-AI Converged Computing Management Software, CHESS, was selected for its successful deployment of a high-performance intelligent computing platform for a biotechnology research institute under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Through customised computing architecture design and optimisation, the platform has significantly enhanced scientific data processing efficiency and model computational accuracy.It has demonstrated outstanding performance in large-scale bioinformatics processing, gene sequence analysis, and AI-assisted research, serving as an important demonstration of "HPC/AI Convergence”practices. This platform fully highlights the role of advanced computing power in driving scientific and industrial innovation.
As the AI-driven scientific revolution progresses, computing power has become a key indicator of national technological competitiveness. By combining high-level dialogues with real-world case studies, this Think-Share Forum not only deepened the industry’s understanding of computing trends but also offered insights for developing a future-oriented intelligent computing ecosystem. ClusterTech will continue to explore innovations in computing technology and scenario-based applications, further driving computing infrastructure toward higher efficiency, greater intelligence, and enhanced collaboration. These efforts will inject new momentum into the high-quality development of China’s computing industry and support the deep integration of the digital and real economies.
