Recording of the Webinar: Simulating Societies through AI and Digital Twins
Did you miss our webinar "Digital Twins of Society: Simulations Powered by HPC”? The recording is now available online. The webinar offered inspiring insights into how artificial intelligence, cognitive modeling, and multi-agent simulation technologies help researchers understand and predict complex social phenomena such as the spread of disinformation, radicalization, and social cohesion.
The webinar featured leading experts in the field: Prof. Dr. F. LeRon Shults from NORCE and the University of Agder (Norway), who specializes in cultural cybernetics and modeling extremism, and Dr. Justin Lane, co-founder of CulturePulse AI and Scientific Director of the DEKK Institute, a pioneer in multi-agent AI and the creator of societal digital twins.
The webinar showcased real-world applications of these technologies, including simulations developed for the United Nations, the Norwegian government, and conflict modeling such as the Israel–Palestine crisis. It also introduced the Slovak Digital Twin initiative, which leverages the Devana supercomputer to run large-scale national simulations.
The program also included a discussion on the ethical aspects of using AI and the opportunities for international collaboration.
The webinar was organized by the National Supercomputing Centre Slovakia in collaboration with NCC Norway and NCC Portugal as part of the EuroCC project activities.
MATLAB in a Nutshell: System Capabilities in Examples and Applications 11 Sep - Pozývame Vás na webinár „MATLAB v kocke“, ktorý priblíži prostredie MATLAB a jeho široké možnosti využitia. MATLAB je výkonný inžiniersky nástroj a interaktívne prostredie určené na vedecké a technické výpočty, analýzu a spracovanie dát, vizualizáciu a tvorbu algoritmov. V priebehu seminára sa účastníci oboznámia so základným rozhraním MATLABu, spôsobom jeho fungovania a praktickým využitím pri riešení rôznych úloh. Predstavená bude aj nadstavba Simulink, ktorá umožňuje modelovanie a simuláciu dynamických systémov alebo modelovanie algoritmov.
How to Communicate Science and Technology Effectively: Our Team’s Experience 22 Aug - Our team has long been dedicated not only to the development of high-performance computing, but also to the effective communication of the results and opportunities we bring to industry, academia, and the next generation of researchers. We consider this a key part of our work – a modern scientific and technological institution today cannot operate in isolation but must be able to clearly and transparently communicate the value and impact of its activities.
HPC and MATLAB: A Strong Partnership for Accessible Supercomputing 19 Aug - Minulý týždeň sa uskutočnilo zaujímavé pracovné stretnutie, na ktorom sa Lucia Malíčková, zastrešujúca Národné superpočítačové centrum a Národné kompetenčné centrum pre HPC, stretla s Martinom Foltínom zo spoločnosti HUMUSOFT s.r.o., oficiálneho distribútora MathWorks.
