Webinar: Digital Forensics in the Era of Big Data
National Competence Centres for HPC in Slovakia, Austria, and the Czech Republic invite you to an expert session on how high-performance computing (HPC) can support digital forensics in modern large-scale environments. The webinar is hosted by the National Competence Centre for HPC in Slovakia.
Handling digital forensics in large-scale environments demands immense computational resources. This session will demonstrate how HPC accelerates the forensic analysis of cyber incidents, supports large dataset examination, and enables faster threat identification. Use cases from industry and public sector investigations will be discussed.

All Hands Meeting in Estonia 30 Sep - V dňoch 23. – 25. septembra 2025 sa zástupkyne Národného kompetenčného centra pre HPC Halyna Hyryavets a Lucia Malíčková zúčastnili záverečnej konferencie projektov CASTIEL2, EuroCC2, EuroCC4SEE a Centier excelentnosti (CoEs), ktorá sa konala v Tallinne v Estónsku.
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.
