About ShardNet

Numerical systems for accelerated science.

ShardNet focuses on the layer between scientific algorithms and accelerator hardware: precision, kernels, memory movement, communication, and reproducible performance.

What we are

A systems research group, not a simulation vendor.

We do not claim domain ownership over CFD, chemistry, climate, or materials science. We build reusable numerical infrastructure underneath those applications and qualify how that infrastructure behaves on modern accelerators.

What we build

Methods, kernels, and evidence.

  • Mixed-precision and precision-recovery methods.
  • Dense, sparse, spectral, and solver kernel implementations.
  • ROCm/HIP and CUDA-class accelerator qualification.
  • Multi-GPU communication and topology characterization.
  • Machine-readable experiment plans, run receipts, and negative-result records.
Who it helps

Teams whose science is bottlenecked by the machine.

Accelerator vendors, OEMs, scientific-software teams, HPC centers, research labs, and AI-for-science groups that need to turn new hardware into reliable numerical capability without sacrificing the correctness contract.

Current stage

What is live today

ShardNet currently publishes algorithmic experiments and implementation self-tests. Physical AMD Instinct qualification is explicitly marked pending until the corresponding hardware run has been completed and retained with its full environment and measurement receipt.
