From 28 to 30 September, the FCT's FCCN Unit organises the RNCA 2021 Meeting.
The event aims to raise awareness of the National Network for Advanced Computing, its resources, as well as sharing training opportunities and also experiences of using RNCA platforms, to users and the research and innovation communities.
RNCA brings together infrastructures, human resources and partnerships related to Advanced Computing in Portugal, in articulation with international initiatives. Its mission is to promote advanced computing services to users and research and innovation communities in Portugal.
