Supercomputers (not only) in science

We continue into the summer semester with a series of lectures on how scientists use supercomputers in their research. The National Competence Centre for HPC in cooperation with the Computing Centre and the Computer Museum of the Centre of Operations of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, organizes a series of popularization lectures on the use of supercomputers in various scientific disciplines. We will welcome a number of speakers not only from the Slovak Academy of Sciences, but also from Slovak universities and other institutions.

Supercomputers (not only) in science

We continue into the summer semester with a series of lectures on how scientists use supercomputers in their research. The National Competence Centre for HPC in cooperation with the Computing Centre and the Computer Museum of the Centre of Operations of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, organizes a series of popularization lectures on the use of supercomputers in various scientific disciplines. We will welcome a number of speakers not only from the Slovak Academy of Sciences, but also from Slovak universities and other institutions.

Part of the lectures is planned as a sequence focusing on the applications of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Come and listen to Slovak experts and take the opportunity to discuss with them in an informal atmosphere!

We would like to invite scientists, students and also the general public - all those who are interested in the topic of supercomputing. Research and development relying on high-performance calculations has multidisciplinary character and the knowledge of the basic modeling and simulation methods, programming languages and operating systems can be of a great advantage. This semester we will first look at the quantum Monte Carlo methods, considered very promising for utilizing the next generation exascale supercomputers. We will learn about the important role the high performance computers play in weather forecasting. Subsequently, we will focus on machine learning and artificial intelligence topic with lectures covering the basics as well as specific applications.

We plan to organize the lectures in a hybrid mode so it is possible to attend them in person. However, due to the unpredictable pandemic situation and constantly changing rules for mass events, we will inform you about the lecture format via our website and social networks approximately one week before each individual event.

You may look forward to the following lectures and speakers - and we look forward to see you!

Computational Technologies for a Competitive Slovakia 2 Apr - Predstavili sme naše aktivity, služby a technologické kapacity zástupcom Slovenskej agentúry pre rozvoj investícií a obchodu (SARIO). Cieľom prezentácie bolo ukázať, ako môže vysokovykonné počítanie, posunúť slovenský priemysel, výskum aj inovácie do digitálnej budúcnosti. Slovensko má k dispozícii výkonnú technologickú infraštruktúru, ktorú môže aktívne využiť ako súčasť svojej investičnej a inovačnej stratégie.
EuroHPC Summit 2025: Three Days Full of Innovation, Discussion, and Inspiration 24 Mar - V dňoch 18. – 20. marca sme sa zúčastnili prestížneho EuroHPC Summitu 2025, ktorý sa tento rok konal v Krakove. Počas troch nabitých dní sa na jednom mieste stretli odborníci, výskumníci, inovátori a zástupcovia inštitúcií z celej Európy, aby diskutovali o budúcnosti vysokovýkonného počítania (HPC), umelej inteligencie (AI) a kvantových technológií. Prvý deň bol zameraný na strategické smerovanie európskeho HPC ekosystému. Veľmi zaujímavou bola aj diskusia o tzv. AI Factories – iniciatívach, ktoré majú posilniť európske postavenie v oblasti umelej inteligencie.
Supercomputers and Agriculture: Starting a Partnership with SPU 21 Mar - Tento týždeň sme absolvovali pracovné rokovanie na Slovenskej poľnohospodárskej univerzite (SPU) v Nitre, počas ktorého sme spolu s odborníkmi z rôznych oblastí diskutovali o možnostiach spolupráce v oblasti výskumu, inovácií a vzdelávania. Hlavným cieľom stretnutia bolo preskúmať potenciál prepojenia odborných kapacít univerzity s výpočtovým výkonom a expertízou Národného superpočítačového centra (NSCC) a Národného kompetenčého centra pre HPC (NCC pre HPC).
