Webinar: The Use of HPC at the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute
We invite you to an online lecture – The Use of HPC at the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute, led by Mgr. Mária Derková, PhD. from the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute.
Since 2021, SHMÚ has been using the high-performance computing system NEC-LX to support its operations. The main tool for numerical weather prediction, which is run operationally on this HPC system, is the ALADIN model. We will present its various configurations and their use not only for weather forecasting purposes. Other computational systems are also operated on the HPC infrastructure, including climatological and hydrological models, as well as models for air quality analysis and forecasting—many of which rely on input from the ALADIN model. HPC also facilitates the processing of large-volume data and measurements from radars, satellites, and similar sources. The presentation will also touch on future possibilities for HPC use at SHMÚ, such as nowcasting, ensemble forecasting, and (potentially) AI/ML techniques.

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.
