BSC brings together 120 leading researchers in HPC at the 8th JLESC workshop

13 April 2018
The workshop will take place from 17 to 19 April at BSC facilities.

The workshop brings together 120 leading researchers in high-performance computing (HPC) from the JLESC partners Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), INRIA, the University of Illinois, Argonne National Laboratory, Jülich Supercomputing Centre and RIKEN AICS to explore the most recent and critical issues in advancing the field of HPC from petascale to the extreme scale era.

The workshop will take place from 17 to 19 April at BSC facilities and will feature sessions on these seven central topics:

  • Applications and mini-apps
  • Parallel Programming models and runtime
  • Performance tools
  • Resilience
  • Big Data, I/O and in-situ visualization
  • Numerical methods and algorithms
  • Advanced architectures

In addition, dedicated sessions on computational fluid dynamics, computational biology and climate/weather research are planned.

A key objective of the workshop is to identify new research collaborations and establish a roadmap for their implementation.

The workshop is open to Illinois, INRIA, ANL, BSC, JSC, Riken AICS and UTK ICL faculties, researchers, engineers and students who want to learn more about Post-Petascale / Pre-Exascale Computing.
