App Portability From Edge to Cloud
This session showcases the application of Intel AI software for a Pharmaceutical solution, emphasizing application portability from on-premises to the cloud. It showcases workloads like Demand Forecasting, Predictive Maintenance, Visual Anomaly Detection, and GenAI Chatbot on Intel Core CPUs and 4th Gen Xeon infrastructure within the Intel Developer Cloud (IDC). The integration of Intel's optimizations for PyTorch*, TensorFlow*, XGBoost*, and the OpenVINO Anomalib tool is demonstrated in a prototype application that includes various DevOps elements to support the modular deployment of individual AI training and inference service as REST API endpoints. Attendees can engage in hands-on activities on the IDC, exploring services like the GenAI Chatbot and Visual Anomaly through the prototype's User Interface.
Freedom of Choice Across Accelerators with oneAPI
Learn how to take advantage of accelerator technologies—CPUs, GPUs, and specialized AI processors—without hardware vendor lock-in by using oneAPI, a unified, open, standards-based programming model for multiple vendor architectures. Hear from Andrew Richards, CEO of Codeplay – a pioneer in GPU acceleration and world-leading specialist in heterogeneous computing technology – about the growth of the ecosystem around oneAPI, recent developments including compatibility with NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, and the oneAPI Construction Kit for custom accelerators. You’ll also see examples of complex, real-world scientific and graphics applications running on multiple architectures using the same code base.
Integrated Photonics and its Impact on Systems and Data Centers of the Future
The ever-increasing movement of data from server to server is taxing the capabilities of today’s data center infrastructure. The industry is quickly approaching the practical limits of electrical I/O performance. Integrated Photonics research at Intel labs addresses growing challenges of network traffic in data centers by integrating silicon photonics with low-cost, high-volume silicon. Learn about our recent advances and explore possibilities of how integrated photonics may change system interfaces and network topologies in future data center architectures. In this session, James Jaussi, Senior Principal Engineer and Director of the PHY Research Lab at Intel Labs, will lay out Intel’s vision for optical compute interconnect and end-to-end optical networks in future data centers.

Deploying AI Everywhere: Video Delivery and Recommendations at Netflix
Learn how the Netflix Performance Engineering team uses Intel® software development tools to accelerate ML/DL workloads on Intel® Xeon® processors for business-critical applications such as video quality and delivery optimization, effective viewer content recommendations, and computer vision. Amer Ather, Sr. Performance Engineer, will share in-depth knowledge on how Netflix leverages Intel® hardware and software to optimize the viewing experience of over 230 million subscribers across 190 countries.
Designing Solutions for Intel® Xeon® with E-cores and P-cores
The next generation of Intel® Xeon® processors (codenamed Granite Rapids and Sierra Forest) are designed to meet diverse workload performance and efficiency requirements while maximizing software use across two different types of cores. A new class of E-cores delivers high core density and performance per watt, ideal for cloud and hyperscale workloads that demand high throughput. Significantly enhanced P-cores deliver high performance per core to excel at the widest range of workloads, ideal for compute-intensive applications, and better AI performance. With compatible hardware and a shared software stack, developers can reuse many architectural features when designing for specific workload needs, reducing deployment risk and accelerating development time.
Generative AI in Real World Applications on the Client
This session is designed to equip participants with the essential skills required to successfully deploy neural networks on client systems. This session will cover the flow of transitioning from a prototype model to productizing their solution as demonstrated by integration into open-source software using OpenVINO™. Participants will learn about best practices for model conversion and deployment on Intel® Client Systems, and how to take advantage of the total AI acceleration available on Intel SoCs, including the new Intel® NPU available in upcoming Core Ultra. We will discuss how participants can utilize ONNX with OpenVINO™ and DirectML™ to provide support for a wide range of hardware accelerators, enabling efficient execution on a diverse set of hardware architectures.
