The fifth International Summer School on HPC Challenges in Computational Sciences will be held June 1-6, 2014, in Budapest, Hungary. The summer school is sponsored by the European Union Seventh Framework Program’s Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe Implementation Phase project (PRACE-3IP), the US National Science Foundation’s Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) project, RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computational Science (RIKEN AICS), and Compute/Calcul Canada.
Leading American, Canadian, European, and Japanese computational scientists and HPC technologists will offer instruction on a variety of topics, including:
- Access to EU, US, Japanese, and Canadian cyberinfrastructures
- HPC challenges by discipline (e.g., bioinformatics, computer science, chemistry, and physics)
- HPC programming proficiencies
- Performance analysis and profiling
- Algorithmic approaches and numerical libraries
- Data-intensive computing
- Scientific visualization
This program is open to graduate students and post-docs and will benefit advanced scholars who use HPC for their research. Meals, housing, and travel expenses will be paid.
The application deadline is March 9, 2014.
Complete information, including the application, can be found on the Summer School website.
