Lab

Current technologies and projects my teams and I are experimenting with.

  • AI Workflows Developing our cloud-to-edge MoE solution - or can it just be edge? Deep dives with Macs and Exo for the win?
  • Mid-Range Compute Adding a new compute cluster for scientific research with 2 Nvidia RTX PRO 6000 GPU cards - 96GB VRAM is the new frontier! JupyterHub and Slurm to sweat those assets.
  • Micro Compute Netbooting Alpine into Raspberry Pi 4+ and supporting the development of ESP32-based equipment interlock systems. Fun at the low-end!
