@HPCpodcast-37: John Gustafson on Feynman, Gustafson’s Law, Posit Format
How did Richard Feynman end up playing the bongo drums? How did a new take on Amdahl's Law helped propel massively parallel computing and become Gustafson's Law? And what's wrong with IEEE 754 number format that the new Posit format fixes? We go to the source as we welcome special guest John Gustafson in another very lively conversation.
