Recording of the Webinar: Use of HPC at the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute
Thank you to everyone who attended the expert online lecture Use of HPC at the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute, led by Mgr. Mária Derková, PhD., from the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute.
The lecture provided insights into how the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute (SHMÚ) has been using the high-performance computing system NEC-LX (in operation since 2021), primarily for numerical weather prediction with the ALADIN model. Various configurations of the model and its broader applications were presented – including climatological and hydrological models, as well as models for air quality analysis and forecasting. The presentation also covered the processing of data from radars and satellites, along with a discussion on the potential for expanding HPC use to nowcasting, ensemble forecasting, and AI/ML techniques.
10th International Conference on Polymer Materials in the Automotive Industry – PMA 2025 and the 26th Slovak Rubber Conference 1 Jun - V dňoch 21. – 23. mája 2025 sa na Smolenickom zámku konala prestížna vedecká konferencia PMA & SRC 2025, zameraná na polymérne materiály v automobilovom priemysle a kaučukársky výskum. Na podujatí vystúpila aj Lucia Malíčková z Národného superpočítačového centra (NSCC Slovakia) a Národného kompetenčného centra pre vysokovýkonné počítanie (NCC for HPC).
Slovak Language in the Era of Large Language Models (with the Support of the Leonardo Supercomputer) 29 May - Srdečne vás pozývame na spoločný webinár o modelovaní jazyka, ktorý organizujú Národné kompetenčné centrá pre HPC na Slovensku a v Taliansku. Nástup veľkých jazykových modelov (LLM), ktoré si vyžadujú obrovské množstvo trénovacích dát, pôvodne znevýhodňoval používateľov málo zastúpených jazykov.
Bilateral Meeting of National Competence Centres for HPC from the Czech Republic and Slovakia: Strengthening Cross-Border Cooperation 28 May - On May 28, 2025, a working meeting of representatives of the National Competence Centres for High-Performance Computing (NCC) from Slovakia and the Czech Republic took place in Bratislava. The aim was to deepen cooperation within the EuroCC 2 project (Grant Agreement 101101903) and to coordinate further joint activities in the field of high-performance computing (HPC) in the Central European region.
