Dnotitia’s first-generation VDPU ASIC samples are back from fab, with chip-level characterization in progress and silicon-based evaluations planned for Q4 2026In FPGA-based evaluations, a four-card VDPU server delivered up to 5.77x the vector-search throughput of a dual-socket CPU server, while freeing up most of the host CPU and memory for the applicationVDPU integrates with Dnotitia’s Seahorse vector database and widely used vector-search software including Milvus, FAISS and hnswlib, and the company is expanding server-scale evaluations with system, storage, memory and vector database partners.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dnotitia Inc. (Dnotitia), an AI data infrastructure and semiconductor company, today announced that the first ASIC samples of its Vector Data Processing Unit (VDPU) have returned from fabrication, with chip-level characterization now underway. At AI Infra Summit 2026, held Sept. 15-17 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, the company showcased a server-scale VDPU architecture designed for vector retrieval workloads in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and agentic AI.

The showcase followed the company’s first public display of its VDPU chip and accelerator card at the Future of Memory and Storage (FMS) 2026, where Dnotitia received a Best of Show Award, and marked the next step from chip-level demonstration to server-scale evaluation.

On Dnotitia’s FPGA evaluation platform, a server equipped with four VDPU cards delivered up to 5.77x the vector-search throughput of the same software stack running on a dual-socket CPU-only server, while maintaining equal or better recall. In a 4,096-dimensional multimodal workload, VDPU reduced host CPU use during index building by 92% and host memory by 73%, freeing host CPU resources for applications. All performance figures were measured on the FPGA platform and do not represent final ASIC performance.

“Agentic AI is shifting the AI infrastructure bottleneck from model compute toward retrieval,” said Se-Hyun Yang, Chief Technology Officer of Dnotitia. “As models search and verify information repeatedly, retrieval needs its own processing layer. VDPU is designed to give CPU capacity back to applications and keep GPU HBM focused on model execution. At AI Infra Summit, we showcased VDPU at server scale and opened discussions with infrastructure partners around evaluation and integration.”

The FPGA platform has been validated with FAISS, Milvus and hnswlib across brute-force KNN, IVF, NSW and HNSW indexes. Beyond the stacks already ported to the FPGA platform, Dnotitia plans to support a broader range of vector libraries and databases on the ASIC so that VDPU can work with the environments customers already run.

Dnotitia’s first-generation VDPU ASIC is currently undergoing chip-level characterization. The company plans to begin ASIC-based VDPU evaluations in Q4 2026. Dnotitia is targeting up to 10x vector-search performance versus a CPU-based server with its VDPU ASIC-based server.

During the summit, Se-Hyun Yang presented “Rethinking AI Infrastructure with Dedicated Vector Silicon,” outlining the architecture and performance results behind VDPU. Dnotitia also met with prospective customers and infrastructure partners at Booth 205 to discuss VDPU evaluations, proof-of-concept projects and potential integration into existing server, storage, and AI infrastructure.

Following the event, the company is continuing discussions with server, storage, memory and semiconductor companies, as well as vector database providers and AI framework developers, as it expands server-scale VDPU evaluations and prepares for ASIC-based evaluation in Q4 2026.

New Arizona Voters’ Agenda research shows voters want clear answers, practical problem-solving, and action on their priorities

PHOENIX, Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — With Arizona’s General Election approaching, new statewide research finds voters want more than candidates’ positioning on issues, they want to know what actions candidates will take on their highest priorities. They want to hear directly from the people asking to lead them about the solutions they would pursue and how they would make progress.

The latest 2026 Arizona Voters’ Agenda findings from Center for the Future of Arizona (CFA) reinforce what CFA has heard consistently across years of statewide research and engagement with Arizonans. They care deeply about the state’s future, want leaders focused on the issues affecting their lives and communities, share more common ground than the political narrative, and value problem-solving, long-term thinking, and meaningful progress. The new findings show how those expectations are carrying into the 2026 election.

“Arizonans want to know what candidates will do about the issues that matter most to them and to Arizona’s future,” said Dr. Sybil Francis, Chair, President & CEO of Center for the Future of Arizona. “Voters have already given us a remarkably clear picture of the outcomes they want. They are looking for candidates who will engage those priorities directly, explain credible plans, and give Arizonans confidence that they can turn those plans into progress. That is an opportunity and a responsibility for anyone asking to lead in our state.”

Voters Place a Premium on Hearing Directly From Candidates
Ninety-three percent of Arizona voters say it is important to have opportunities to hear candidates directly answer questions about issues that matter to most voters, including 80% who say it is very important. The expectation is near-unanimous across political affiliations, with 94% of Republicans, 91% of independent and unaffiliated voters, and 94% of Democrats saying those opportunities are important.

The finding points to a clear need in the election conversation. Voters want candidates to directly address the issues that matter to them and explain what they would do. The Arizona Voters’ Agenda helps meet that need by identifying voters’ priorities and the questions they raise for candidates and leaders, keeping what voters want visible through the election and into governing.

LANZHOU, China, Sept. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — During the Gansu leg of the “Together on the Long March” CICG International Communication Project, Liang Xiaoyuan, son of founding lieutenant general Liang Xingchu, visited the historic Long March sites in Hadapu and recalled a remarkable episode involving his father.

In Hadapu, Liang Xingchu was assigned by Mao Zedong to search for “spiritual nourishment”—newspapers and other sources of information. A copy of Ta Kung Pao obtained during the mission contained reports about the situation in northern Shaanxi, providing the Central Red Army with important information as it determined where to advance next.

That newspaper helped turn Hadapu, a small town in northwest China, into a key historical landmark on the road toward the Long March’s eventual destination.
