SUMMARY:Masterclass III: Emerging HPC Technologies (Advanced Computing)
DESCRIPTION:Masterclasses remain a central part of UT Austin Portugal’s 2020 Annual Conference agenda. These thematic and highly-specialized sessions feature renowned experts in their fields. \n\n  \nDescription of Masterclass III\nAs pointed out by the European Union\, “High-Performance Computing (HPC) is a critical factor for the digitization of industry\, its innovation and competitiveness”. By enabling sophisticated modelling and simulation\, HPC is a must-have asset that allows modern societies to understand the complexity of massive amounts of data generated by multiple sources\, thereby creating valuable knowledge. \nThe application potential of HPC is huge for a wide range of fields from cybersecurity\, to climate change and weather prediction\, to personalized medicine\, space exploration\, energy efficiency or even to ICT research itself. \nThis increase in demand for HPC technologies calls for an ever increasing capacity and efficiency with strong implications on the many emerging and thriving technologies being made available nowadays. \nOrganised by the Area of Advanced Computing\, and counting on world-class experts from ARM and TACC\, this Masterclass will address the HPC capabilities and related opportunities in two ways: \n• first\, by exploring the topic of high-performance large-scale processors and systems in general\, and specific on Arm in HPC\, supported by examples of relevant academia-industry partnerships and EU-funded projects;\n• second\, by focusing on the next generation of HPC technologies\, applications and systems towards exascale architectures and how they are redesigning scientific research. \n  \nRegistration\nRegistration is now closed. \n  \nSpeakers\n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\nAlejandro Rico\, Principal Research Engineer at ARM\, USA\nDan Stanzione\, Associate Vice President for Research and Executive Director at the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC)\, USA\n\n  \nScientific Coordination\n\nDan Stanzione\, Associate Vice President for Research and Executive Director at TACC\, USA\nRui Oliveira\, Associate Professor at the Informatics Department of the University of Minho\, Member of the Board of Directors at INESC TEC\, Director of Minho Advanced Computing Center\, Portugal\n\n\nModeration\n\nPedro Alberto\, Associate Professor at University of Coimbra\n\n\nProgram\nOctober 8\, 2020\n2 p.m. (Lisbon time) | 8 a.m. (Austin time)\nWelcome Message by Pedro Alberto (University of Coimbra) \n2.10 p.m. | 8.10 a.m.\n“ARM in HPC: from toy clusters to fastest supercomputer in the world”\nby Alejandro Rico + Moderated Q&A \n3.40 p.m. | 9.40 a.m.\nShort break \n3.55 p.m.| 9.55 a.m.\nPresentation II by Dan Stanzione + Moderated Q&A \n5.25 p.m.| 11.25 a.m.\nWrap-up by Pedro Alberto (University of Coimbra) \n  \nTarget Audience\nAre you interested in exploring the topic of HPC and next generational advanced computing technologies? Then you will not want to miss this session! \n  \nRequirements \nParticipants must secure Wi-Fi connection. \n  \n  \nVisit the pages below for detailed information on other Masterclasses: \nMasterclass I: Innovation in Biomimetic Materials (Nanotechnologies) \nMasterclass II: Platforms for global monitoring – Emerging capabilities and challenges (Space-Earth Interactions)\nMasterclass IV: The Challenges of Proton Therapy in Cancer Treatment – Research and Clinical Perspectives (Medical Physics)  \n  \nFor additional information\, please contact events@utaustinportugal.org.
