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.

Call for Business Experiments – Support for SMEs in the Implementation of HPC Solutions 28 Jun - We draw your attention to the second open call under the FFplus project, which focuses on supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in addressing specific business challenges through High Performance Computing (HPC). The aim of the call is to carry out so-called “business experiments” designed to demonstrate that the use of HPC technologies can solve real-world problems and have a positive impact on business.
When Technology Meets Inclusion: A Vision for a Fair Society 25 Jul - In recent days, an inspiring meeting took place between Lucia Maličková, project manager at the National Supercomputing Center and the National Competence Centre for High-Performance Computing (HPC), and Ján Bihari, visionary, founder of Tibi Digital, and thought leader in the field of Roma community digitalization.
Recording of the Webinar: Simulating Societies through AI and Digital Twins 23 Jul - Nestihli ste náš webinár „Digitálne dvojčatá spoločnosti: Simulácie poháňané výpočtami na HPC“? Záznam je už dostupný online. Webinár priniesol inšpiratívne pohľady na to, ako umelá inteligencia, kognitívne modelovanie a multiagentové simulačné technológie pomáhajú vedcom porozumieť a predikovať komplexné spoločenské javy, ako sú šírenie dezinformácií, radikalizácia či spoločenská súdržnosť.
