summary

Virginia Tech runs a two‑week OpenPOWER hackathon with 52 participants using the PowerAI toolset and Open OnDemand as a one‑click portal to Jupyter notebooks and TensorBoard. Teams port models to GPUs: an actor‑critic RL implementation shows dramatic GPU speedup, a Siamese single‑cell RNA classifier scales across GPUs but suffers unexpected accuracy drops, and physics‑aware GANs generate CFD training data with improving realism while convergence and non‑linear scaling of training time remain challenges.
