Developing robust investment strategies requires thorough testing, but relying solely on historical data can introduce biases and limit your insights. Learn how synthetic data from agent-based models can provide an unbiased testbed to systematically evaluate your strategies and prepare for future market scenarios. Part 2 covers implementation details and results.

Developing robust investment strategies requires thorough testing, but relying solely on historical data can introduce biases and limit your insights. Learn how synthetic data from agent-based models can provide an unbiased testbed to systematically evaluate your strategies and prepare for future market scenarios. Part 1 of 2 covers the theoretical foundations of the approach.

See how agent-based models, driven to scale by HPC in the cloud, are shedding new light on macroprudential policies with this post from Oxford’s Institute for New Economic Thinking.

In this post, we share how Amazon Search optimizes their use of accelerated compute resources using AWS Batch fair-share scheduling to schedule distributed deep learning workloads.

As a part of AWS’s “Digital Technologies for a Circular Economy” initiative, we joined forces with Accenture, Intel and Good Chemistry to massively scale quantum chemistry simulations. This is the first and most complex step to discovering new pathways for PFAS destruction for a cleaner world.

Calling budding bioinformaticians! If you learn through hands-on practicals and walkthroughs, AWS and GIS have developed training and resources to help you increase the scale and productivity of your research using the AWS cloud.

Today we announced the AWS Impact Computing Project at the Harvard Data Science Initiative (HDSI) to identify potential solutions that can improve the lives of humans, other species, and natural ecosystems. Deb Goldfarb describes its goals and our joint vision.

Today, we discuss AWS batch on Amazon EKS, and the initial motivation and design choices the team made when we developed the service, and some of the challenges to overcome.

AWS service teams continuously improve the underlying infrastructure and operations of managed services, and AWS Batch is no exception. The AWS Batch team recently moved most of their job scheduler fleet to a serverless infrastructure model leveraging AWS Fargate. I had a chance to sit with Devendra Chavan, Senior Software Development Engineer on the AWS Batch team, to discuss the move to AWS Fargate and its impact on the Batch managed scheduler service component.

In this blog, we showcase the first version of Open Omics and benchmark three applications that are used in processing NGS data – sequence alignment tools BWA-MEM, minimap2, and single cell ATAC-Seq on Xeon-based Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Instances.
