PRACE Spring school: Modelling Materials using HPC and AI/ML
This year the PRACE Spring school will be organized by the Centre of Operations, Slovak Academy of Sciences and will cover the topic of modelling materials using HPC and AI/ML tools and techniques. The workshop will be held on June 15 – 18, 2021 as an online/hybrid event. Locally based participants may attend the seasonal school in person, if the pandemic situation and valid restrictions permit it.
We aim to deliver comprehensive information on the topic, from theoretical background, parallel algorithms implementation to effective deployment of applications and programs on the HPC environment.
The PRACE Spring school will also fucus on utilizing the AI/ML tools that are being progressively applied to real chemical problems, such as discovery of new chemical compounds and materials with specific properties.
The program comprises interesting lectures as well as practical hands-on sessions. Basic knowledge and background in theoretical chemistry or physics is a prerequisite.
The HERE , which is free of charge, is now OPEN until June 7, 2021 or until our capacities are full.
How to Communicate Science and Technology Effectively: Our Team’s Experience 22 Aug - Our team has long been dedicated not only to the development of high-performance computing, but also to the effective communication of the results and opportunities we bring to industry, academia, and the next generation of researchers. We consider this a key part of our work – a modern scientific and technological institution today cannot operate in isolation but must be able to clearly and transparently communicate the value and impact of its activities.
HPC and MATLAB: A Strong Partnership for Accessible Supercomputing 19 Aug - Minulý týždeň sa uskutočnilo zaujímavé pracovné stretnutie, na ktorom sa Lucia Malíčková, zastrešujúca Národné superpočítačové centrum a Národné kompetenčné centrum pre HPC, stretla s Martinom Foltínom zo spoločnosti HUMUSOFT s.r.o., oficiálneho distribútora MathWorks. 
Webinar: How a Large Language Model is Created for a Low-Resource Language 14 Aug - Pozývame vás na náš ďalší odborný webinár, ktorý sa zameria na pokroky v oblasti umelej inteligencie pre slovinský jazyk. Podujatie sa uskutoční online v polovici septembra a ponúkne jedinečnú príležitosť nazrieť do zákulisia vývoja veľkého jazykového modelu prispôsobeného pre jazyk s obmedzenými zdrojmi. Prednášajúcim bude Domen Vreš z Univerzity v Ľubľane, Fakulty informatiky a počítačových vied, ktorý sa dlhodobo venuje výskumu v oblasti spracovania prirodzeného jazyka a umelej inteligencie.
