Description
The NEC SX-Aurora Tsubasa is a novel PCI-Express accelerator design available
since 2018. The vector architecture supports vector lengths of 16,384 bits and
delivers up to 2.45 TFlop/s peak in double precision. It features outstanding
memory throughput of up to 1.2 TB/s. In this contribution we discuss
key aspects of the SX-Aurora Tsubasa, comment on integrating the architecture
into the Grid Lattice QCD framework, and present initial benchmarks.
