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

Simulating Societies: Multi-Agent AI Models of Social Movements, Belief Dynamics, and National Resilience 26 Jun - Join us for a thought-provoking webinar exploring how artificial intelligence and multi-agent simulation technologies are helping researchers understand and predict complex societal dynamics. This session brings together leading experts in cultural cybernetics, cognitive modeling, and national-scale digital twin simulations.
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.
