Korea signed a new free trade agreement (FTA) with six oil-rich Middle Eastern countries that form the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), according to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, Thursday. The deal has advanced Korea ahead of Japan and China in bolstering economic ties with the giant economic bloc, and the tariff removals are expected to spur further trade and investments between the two sides.

As Moore's law continues to slow, delivering more powerful HPC and AI clusters means building larger, more power hungry facilities. "If you want more performance, you need to buy more hardware, and that means a bigger system; that means more energy dissipation and more cooling demand," University of Utah professor Daniel Reed explained as a recent session at the SC23 supercomputing conference in Denver.
