TREX CoE & NCCs collab / Code tuning for the exascale
TREX centre of excellence together with 3 national competence centres delivered a three-day workshop „Code tuning for the exascale“. NCC Slovakia, Austria and Czech Republic teamed up to bring an interesting programme including advanced parallel programming, energy efficiency analysis and HPC application optimization. The workshop took place in Bratislava, Slovakia during June 5 – 7, 2023 and was organized in a face-to-face format.
This was a nice example of collaboration and support between the NCCs and a CoE. Three complementary topics were covered by the agenda. During the first day the team from Austrian NCC presented advanced parallel programming techniques (MPI, OpenMP), followed by the presentation of a trending topic of energy efficiency in HPC by the Czech NCC on the second day. The third day belonged to the TREX CoE, which presented a tool for HPC applications performance analysis and optimization called MAQAO. Organization, access to HPC and technical HPC support was given by the Slovak NCC.
We hope the workshop fulfilled its‘ purpose to equip the participants with information, tools, skills and competence to help the develop and run efficiently their own software utilizing modern HPC infrastructures.
AI-Driven Archaeology with LLMs — Detecting Archaeological Sites from Aerial Imagery 30 Oct - Objavte, ako umelá inteligencia a veľké jazykové modely menia spôsob, akým odhaľujeme stopy minulosti. Webinár priblíži, ako pokročilé techniky umelej inteligencie inšpirované LLM dokážu analyzovať letecké a LiDARové snímky a detegovať archeologické lokality s bezprecedentnou presnosťou. Dr. Daniel Canedo z Univerzity v Aveire predstaví praktické príklady, v ktorých Vision Transformers a multimodálne učenie odhaľujú skryté vzory v krajine a spájajú moderné technológie s kultúrnym dedičstvom.
Supercomputer for Everyone: Dare to Discover the World of Modern Computing 28 Oct - Once, supercomputers were a mysterious technology accessible only to top scientists working in futuristic laboratories. Today, however, a completely new story is being written. Supercomputers are now available to ordinary users — from universities, small companies, and even public administration — anyone who needs to handle computations far beyond the capabilities of a regular computer.
Webinar amália: Towards a Multimodal LLM for European Portuguese 27 Oct - Pridajte sa k nášmu inšpiratívnemu webináru o vývoji amália, portugalského veľkého jazykového modelu, ktorý prináša bohatstvo európskej portugalčiny do novej éry multimodálnej umelej inteligencie.
Na podujatí vystúpi prof. João Magalhães z NOVA LINCS, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, ktorý predstaví ciele, architektúru a pokrok tohto národného AI projektu. Prednáška sa zameria na to, ako amália kombinuje spracovanie textu, reči, obrazu a videa a ako prispieva k vytváraniu kultúrne ukotvených a dôveryhodných systémov umelej inteligencie pre verejný sektor, akademickú sféru a priemysel.
