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.

Speaker: Dr. Mazhar Malik UWE Bristol, Faculty of Environment and Technology – Computer Science and Creative Technologies 
Date: 5 May, 2025, 11:00 CEST
Venue: online
Registration

Join us for the talk: Digital Forensics in the Era of Big Data: Leveraging HPC for Incident Analysis 

Registered participants will receive an invitation to the MS Teams meeting a few days before the event.

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.
NCC Slovakia at the High-Performance Computing Conference in Portugal 24 Oct - On 22–23 October 2025, the 5th High-Performance Computing Conference (Encontro de Computação Avançada) took place at the University of Aveiro – Portugal’s main event dedicated to supercomputing, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation. The National Competence Centre for HPC (NCC Slovakia) was represented by Božidara Pellegrini.
Slovak scientists join forces in the fight against staphylococcal infection 23 Oct - Baktérie patria medzi najmenších, no zároveň najnebezpečnejších protivníkov v medicíne. Kým niektoré sú neškodné, iné dokážu spôsobiť vážne infekcie, ktorých včasná diagnostika rozhoduje o úspechu liečby. Tím slovenských vedcov preto skúma, ako odhaliť prítomnosť baktérií priamo v tkanive, rýchlo, presne a bez potreby invazívnych zásahov. Výskum spája konfokálnu Ramanovu mikroskopiu, fotodynamickú terapiu a analýzu dát na superpočítači.
