In addition to services for the academic sector, it will also focus on cooperation with small and medium-sized enterprises, industrial companies and public administration institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent months, the National Supercomputing Center (NSCC) has been established in Slovakia, which, as an association of the academic, private and public sectors, will form the hitherto missing and at the same time much-needed national vision and strategies for the development and support of HPC. The Slovak Renewal and Development Plan has already succeeded in pushing for funds for a new supercomputer, the construction of which is one of the goals of the NSCC in the coming years. In the magazine you will also find an interview with members of the NSCC board of directors Mgr. Luk\u00e1\u0161 Demovi\u010d, Phd. (SAS) and PhDr. Radoslav Repom (MIRRI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also read about high-performance computing and weather forecasting at SHM\u00da, popularization of HPC, applications in practice and pan-European HPC infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don't miss the news from the world of HPC in Slovakia and read the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/vs.sav.sk\/magazine\/issues\/magazine_202101_print.pdf\"><strong>HPC FOUCS.<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-container-6 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/en\/news\/\">NEWS<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"display-posts-listing grid\"><div class=\"listing-item\"><a class=\"image\" href=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/en\/umela-inteligencia-a-superpocitac-ako-nova-zbran-proti-ekologickym-havariam\/\"><img width=\"300\" height=\"164\" src=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kl-300x164.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kl-300x164.png 300w, https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kl-768x420.png 768w, https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kl-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/kl.png 908w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"title\" href=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/en\/umela-inteligencia-a-superpocitac-ako-nova-zbran-proti-ekologickym-havariam\/\"><strong>Artificial Intelligence and a Supercomputer as a New Weapon Against Environmental Disasters<\/strong><\/a> <span class=\"date\">26 Mar<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt-dash\">-<\/span> <span class=\"excerpt\">Scientists from Nitra, Slovakia are teaching machines to predict industrial failures before they can cause damage.
