The Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing and ETH Zurich are happy to announce the first PASC Conference to be held at ETH Zurich from June 2 to June 3, 2014: www.pasc14.org. The conference brings together computational scientists and research groups from diverse scientific domains, including Climate and Atmospheric Modelling, Solid Earth Dynamics, the Life Sciences, […]
All contributors of PASC14 (talks, posters) have been invited to participate in an award for the best visualization. An interdisciplinary committee composed of: Dr. Andreas Hirstein, NZZ am Sonntag • Ressortleiter Wissen Prof. Dr. Peter Arbenz, Professor for Computational Science, Department of Computer Science, ETH Zurich John Biddiscobe, Computational Scientist, CSCS nominated the following three […]
The slidecasts of the PASC14 conference hosted at ETH Zurich in June 2-3, 2014 are now available. The goal of the conference has been to bringing together all scientists and research groups within these diverse scientific domains to foster interdisciplinary collaborations and to strengthen high-performance computing (HPC) knowledge exchange. Welcome to the conference, Thomas Schulthess […]
Almost 250 researchers flocked to the first PASC conference at ETH Zurich to take part in an interdisciplinary meeting on the use of high-performance computing (HPC) in computational science. The success of the conference, and particularly the tremendous turnout, signifies for the organisers that there exists a strong demand for such knowledge exchange in Europe. […]
Computer simulations for health and safety High-performance computing may seem a far cry from our everyday lives, but appearances can be deceptive. Storm warnings take their cue from weather simulations made with these computers and computer models help increase flight safety or improve cancer treatments. A special conference at ETH Zurich now offers the general […]
