"Unity and teamwork perfectly define the essence of CURSOR council!"
In my role as the General Secretary of the CURSOR council, I've encountered a roller coaster of
experiences. Leading a team of 13 diverse and committed individuals through these challenges
has deeply influenced how I lead and how I've grown personally. Through this journey I’ve
learned to be a leader who has a clear vision, always acts with honesty, and never gives up in the
face of adversity. In my whole tenure of being a GS, I faced many challenges along the way, but
thanks to the unwavering support of my fellow Cursor Council members, we conquered every
obstacle together. This is where I truly grasped the incredible strength of CURSOR, which lies in
our teamwork.
In summary, my tenure as the General Secretary has been a transformational journey. It has
developed my leadership, decisiveness, vision, integrity, and resilience. These qualities have not
only guided my role but have also greatly contributed to our CURSOR council's growth and
success.

AI in Healthcare
Introduction: In a world where technology is zooming ahead
faster than we can imagine, something incredible is happening
in the realm of healthcare. Imagine a world where computers
and machines work alongside doctors and nurses, not just to
treat illnesses, but to predict them even before they fully show
up. It might sound like science fiction, but it's becoming our
new reality, thanks to the merging of healthcare with artificial
intelligence (AI). This fusion is changing how diseases are
spotted, how treatments are designed, and how we experience
medical care. So, let's dive into the whirlwind of AI's recent
ventures into the healthcare sector and see how it's shaping a
future we once thought was only possible in movies.

Meet Frontier :
The worlds fastest computer
T he world’s latest fastest supercomputer, Frontier at Oak Ridge National Lab, in Tennessee, is so powerful
that it operates faster than the next seven best supercomputers combined and more than twice as well as the
machine ranking at 2nd. Frontier is not only the first machine to break the Exascale barrier, a threshold of a
billion, billion calculations per second, but is also ranked No. 1 as the world’s most energy-efficient
supercomputer.
This absolute marvel of a machine has been engineered and developed by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and
Hewlett Packard Enterprise, clocking in speeds up to 1.1 exaflops, faster than the next seven most powerful
supercomputers on Earth *combined*- Yes, this machine can single-handedly compute faster than any other
machine that comes close to rivaling it.
With the advent of Frontier, calculations on supercomputers will get 10 times faster. In addition, Frontier is
also the world's most energy efficient supercomputer with 52.23 gigaflops performance per watt, making it
32% more energy efficient compared to the previous number one system, Japan’s Fugaku hosted in Kobe,
Japan. And if that wasn’t enough, Frontier also performed exceptionally well on artificial intelligence
benchmarks. This category is officially called "mixed-precision computing" and rates performance in formats
that are generally used for artificial intelligence, wherein the computer showed speeds up to 6.88 exaflops. In
other words, at an exascale speed, Frontier’s users can develop AI models that are 4.5X faster and 8X larger,
allowing to train more data that can increase predictability and speed time-to-discovery, which also allows
for further developments in the world of artificial intelligence.
15
Frontier consists of 74 HPE Cray EX supercomputing cabinets, that deliver end-to-end capabilities comprised
of compute, accelerated compute, software, storage and networking to support the magnitude of exascale
performance, each weighing more than 3,600 kilograms, which altogether hold more than 9,400 computing
nodes. Each node contains one optimized third-generation AMD EPYC 64-core 2-gigahertz “Trento” processor
for general tasks and four AMD instinct MI250x accelerators for highly parallel supercomputing and AI
operations, as well as 4 terabytes of flash memory to help quickly feed the GPUs data. In total, Frontier
contains 9,408 CPUs, 37,632 GPUs, and 8,730,112 cores, linked together by 145 kilometers of networking
cables. The lab says it’s world-leading supercomputer consumes about 21 megawatts.
A machine with processing speeds of this stature is expected and does generate an immense amount of heat,
hindering the working of the machine. The cabinets are chilled using liquid cooling. According to Gerald Kleyn,
vice president of HPC and AI systems at HPE, the supercomputer can achieve up to five times the density of a
traditional, air-cooled architecture. The result is a compact system that in turn dramatically reduces cabling
requirements and operational expenses.
The next steps for Frontier include continued testing and validation of the system. The lab says it remains on
track for final acceptance and early science access later in 2022 and is planned to open for full science at the
beginning of 2023.
Projects already planned for Frontier include research into cancer, drug discovery, nuclear fusion, exotic
materials, superefficient engines, and stellar explosions. The aim of the machine is to speed the time required
for such work from weeks to hours and from hours to seconds.
While researchers gain access to this fully operational and absolute gem of an engineering masterpiece, it
voyages us to a new path of discoveries and will also aid in closing chapters of mysteries on the verge of being
debunked by scientists. The sheer strength of computational and calculation capabilities of this machine has
the potential to slingshot the answers of the universe to us for our comprehension.
