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.
Meaningful Collaboration: The National Supercomputing Centre and TUKE Explore Common Ground 16 Jun - Lucia Malíčková, Project Coordinator at the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC Slovakia) and the National Competence Centre for High-Performance Computing (NCC for HPC), met with Associate Professor Maroš Halama, PhD, from the Faculty of Materials, Metallurgy and Recycling at the Technical University of Košice. Their discussion focused on opportunities for closer collaboration in research, computational technologies, and support for young researchers.
Nová éra spolupráce v slovenskom HPC: Začíname budovať HPC ekosysém spolu s Eviden 13 Jun - V slovenskom HPC ekosystéme sa začína nové, mimoriadne zaujímavé obdobie. Ako ste už určite zachytili, Slovenská akadémia vied realizuje projekt s názvom „Budovanie superpočítača pre Národné superpočítačové centrum“, ktorý prinesie novú výpočtovú infraštruktúru pre potreby vedy, výskumu, inovácií aj verejných služieb. Ako Národné superpočítačové centrum sme radi, že môžeme byť pri tom – a stáť pri zrode spolupráce, ktorá má potenciál významne ovplyvniť ďalší rozvoj tejto oblasti na Slovensku. Hovoríme o začiatku partnerstva medzi Národným superpočítačovým centrom a spoločnosťou Atos Eviden, ktorá tento stroj dodáva.
NSCC a NCC pre HPC na veľtrhu Portugal Smart Cities Summit 2025 12 Jun - Ako budú vyzerať mestá budúcnosti? Aké technológie ich premenia na inteligentné, udržateľné a inkluzívne prostredia pre život a prácu? Aj o tom sa hovorilo na Portugal Smart Cities Summit, jednom z najväčších veľtrhov zameraných na smart technológie, ktorý sa konal od 3. do 5. júna 2025 v Lisabone.
