Registration is now open for the 4th Advanced Computing Meeting, which will take place between November 5th and 6th, 2024, at the University of Beira Interior (UBI), in Covilhã.
The event, organized by FCCN, digital services of the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), brings together researchers, technicians and decision-makers with the aim of promoting collaboration and the development of skills in the area of Advanced Computing.
This event promises to be a crucial meeting point for all those interested in the development of Advanced Computing in Portugal and Europe, offering a unique opportunity to share knowledge, discuss innovative solutions, and strengthen cooperation between academia, industry, and research centers.
Artificial Intelligence and the challenges of digital transition will be highlighted
This meeting is part of the activities of National Advanced Computing Network (RNCA) and aims to discuss current topics such as infrastructure and resources available to Portuguese researchers, artificial intelligence, and the challenges of the digital transition in academia and business. Participants will also learn about the network's latest updates, developments in the national and European High Performance Computing (HPC) ecosystem, and benefit from this meeting point for all those interested in Advanced Computing.
The 4th edition of this meeting will feature two workshops on the morning of the first day and thematic sessions that will highlight the impact of Advanced Computing in various areas of knowledge.
On the day November 5th, at 2:00 pm, the opening session will be attended by Professor Francisco Santos, vice-president of the FCT, which will also present information about the new National Center for Advanced Computing.
Other important moments include sessions on the role of supercomputers, such as Deucalion and MareNostrum 5, both supported by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) in scientific and technological innovation, as well as on synergies enhanced by initiatives such as EuroHPC or EuroCC, with regard to the training of specialized human resources and the strengthening of international partnerships.
