10th International Conference on Polymer Materials in the Automotive Industry – PMA 2025 and the 26th Slovak Rubber Conference
The prestigious scientific conference PMA & SRC 2025, focused on polymer materials in the automotive industry and rubber research, was held at Smolenice Castle from May 21 to 23, 2025. Among the speakers was Lucia Malíčková from the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC Slovakia) and the National Competence Centre for High-Performance Computing (NCC for HPC).
In her presentation titled “Computational Modelling and High Performance Computing Driven Innovation in the Development of Polymeric Materials in the Context of the European Competence Centre Framework”, she introduced the potential of high-performance computing (HPC) in the modelling and development of innovative polymeric materials. She also emphasized the importance of collaboration within the European network of competence centres for HPC.
Participation in the event strengthened the connection between the industrial and academic sectors and highlighted the growing importance of HPC solutions for sustainable materials development in the context of the circular economy and innovations in the automotive sector.

MATLAB WORKSHOP: Scaling Algorithms and Simulations Using Parallel Computing 25 Sep - Computationally intensive tasks, processing large volumes of data, and repeated simulation runs are everyday challenges in both science and industry. Modern approaches make it possible to significantly accelerate these processes by leveraging parallel computing and available hardware resources – from multiple CPU cores to GPU acceleration. MATLAB and Simulink offer a wide range of possibilities to efficiently utilize these resources without the need for specialized knowledge of GPU programming or complex HPC solutions.
The computing power of HPC brings new opportunities in the protection of the brown bear 23 Sep - Vysokovýkonné počítanie (HPC) predstavuje kľúčovú technológiu modernej doby, ktorá zásadne mení spôsob, akým vedci, výskumníci aj firmy riešia zložité problémy. Superpočítače dokážu spracovať obrovské objemy dát a vykonať miliardy výpočtov za sekundu – úlohy, ktoré by na bežných počítačoch trvali mesiace či roky, zvládajú v priebehu hodín alebo dní.
