In this talk, I will present an overview of the work done by Hewlett Packard Labs on high bandwidth, scalable and cost-effective interconnect solution. I will outline recent progress on our optical sources, wafer-level statistics on our silicon devices and explore DWDM link architectures and topologies aimed at optimizing the most important HPC applications.
Ashkan received a dual Bachelor's in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Missouri-Columbia and a Ph.D. from University of Southern California working on photonic crystal devices, high-speed nanowire photodetectors, efficient white LEDs and solar cells. While at Hewlett Packard Enterprise as a research scientist, he has been working on developing high-bandwidth, efficient optical interconnects for exascale and high performance computing applications.
