NVIDIA cuDSS officially released: Accelerating the solution of sparse linear systems in engineering and scientific simulations

On October 26, 2026 (UTC), NVIDIA announced that the cuDSS library has entered General Availability (GA). This CUDA-X library is specifically designed to efficiently solve large-scale sparse linear systems on GPUs, significantly boosting simulation throughput and iterative efficiency across fields such as chip design, aerospace, and industrial systems.

i14 releases the Laplace 3B linear attention model: inference with fixed-state memory, implemented on AWS Trainium2 and native PyTorch.

i14 has launched the Laplace 3B model with 3.028 billion parameters, which replaces Softmax attention with Gated Linear Attention (GLA). During inference, its per-sequence recursive state remains constant at 29.5 MB, independent of context length. The model was trained and validated on a single AWS trn2.48xlarge instance (equipped with 16 Trainium 2 chips), achieving a training throughput of 120,000 tokens per second and an inference throughput of 11,544 output tokens per second (with 1,280 concurrent sequences). All performance metrics are based on internal measurements conducted by i14 and the AWS GenAIIC team.

SF Compute builds a programmable data center: leveraging physical delivery to power the GPU computing power trading market.

SF Compute was founded by Evan Conrad and is dedicated to building a neutral, programmable GPU computing‑power trading infrastructure that supports physical delivery. Its model rejects the abstraction of FLOPS as a commodity, emphasizing hardware heterogeneity, actual delivery, and real‑time constraints—such as interrupt tolerance, InfiniBand topology, and firmware versions. The platform has already facilitated tens of billions of dollars in transaction volume and introduced low‑level capabilities like dynamic InfiniBand subnet partitioning.
