SUMMARY:Breaking the Molecular Dynamics Timescale Barrier Using a Wafer-Sc
 ale System
DESCRIPTION:Kylee Santos (Cerebras Systems), Stan Moore (Sandia National L
 aboratories), Tomas Oppelstrup (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LL
 NL)), Amirali Sharifian and Ilya Sharapov (Cerebras Systems), Aidan Thomps
 on (Sandia National Laboratories), Delyan Z. Kalchev (Cerebras Systems), D
 anny Perez (Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)), Robert Schreiber (Cere
 bras Systems), Scott Pakin (Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)), Edgar 
 A. Leon (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)), James H. Laros II
 I (Sandia National Laboratories), Michael James (Cerebras Systems), and Si
 vasankaran Rajamanickam (Sandia National Laboratories)\n\nMolecular dynami
 cs (MD) simulations have transformed our understanding of the nanoscale, d
 riving breakthroughs in materials science, computational chemistry, and se
 veral other fields, including biophysics and drug design. Even on exascale
  supercomputers, however, runtimes are excessive for systems and timescale
 s of scientific interest. Here, we demonstrate strong scaling of MD simula
 tions on the Cerebras Wafer Scale Engine. By dedicating a processor core f
 or each simulated atom, we demonstrate a 457-fold improvement in timesteps
  per second versus the Frontier GPU-based exascale platform, along with a 
 large improvement in timesteps per unit energy. Reducing every year of run
 time to less than a day unlocks currently inaccessible timescales of slow 
 microstructure transformation processes that are critical for understandin
 g material behavior and function. Our dataflow algorithm runs embedded-ato
 m method (EAM) simulations at rates over 699k timesteps per second for pro
 blems with up to 800k atoms. This demonstrated performance is unprecedente
 d for general-purpose processing cores.\n\nRegistration Category: Tech Pro
