Members of the SLING consortium <\/a>co-organised and contributed significantly to the programme of the Austrian-Slovenian HPC Meeting 2024<\/strong> (ASHPC24<\/a>), which took place in Grundlsee, Austria, from 10 to 13 June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ASHPC24<\/strong> continued the tradition of the annual Austrian HPC Meetings, which took place from 2015-2020, and the Austrian-Slovenian HPC Meetings, which followed in 2021-2023: Bringing together scientists and engineers with a background and interest in supercomputing. ASHPC focuses on various aspects of High Performance Computing (HPC) and provides an excellent opportunity to discuss HPC-related topics and present your latest results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ASHPC24 <\/strong>meeting was enriched by in-depth discussions, with participants presenting research and tangible results that demonstrate the transformative power of supercomputing and AI in driving scientific and commercial progress. Recent developments in the rapidly evolving European supercomputing field were also highlighted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With five invited lectures, 37 papers and 14 posters, ASHPC24 covered a wide range of topics in supercomputing, such as weather and climate prediction, quantum computing, artificial intelligence, biosciences and industrial applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invited speakers included Roeland and Hoeven (ParityQC and University of Innsbruck, Austria) with a talk “ParityOS \u2013 The operating system for quantum computers\u00a0“, Jeanette Nilsson (Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), Sweden), who spoke on artificial intelligence and HPC, Marko Robnik-\u0160ikonja (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer and Information Science, Slovenia), who spoke on building large-scale language models, Irene Schicker (GeoSphere, Austria), who spoke on progress, prospects and challenges of weather and climate prediction in the light of the rise of machine learning, and Dejan \u0160ikonja (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer Science and Informatics, Slovenia), (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer Science and Informatics, Slovenia), who spoke about building large-scale language models, Irene Schicker (GeoSphere Austria, Austria), who spoke about progress, prospects and challenges in weather and climate prediction in the light of the rise of machine learning, and Dejan \u0160tepec (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer and Information Science, Slovenia), who spoke about computational pathology and the perspective of HPC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first day of the conference included also a meeting of the Central European National Competence Centres for HPC participating in the EuroCC 2 project<\/a>, where representatives of the National Competence Centres discussed topical issues and deepened regional cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next meeting, ASHPC25<\/strong>, will take place in Slovenia<\/strong> from 19 to 22 May 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ASHPC24 wasorganized by EuroCC Austria<\/a> and EuroCC Slovenia<\/a>, the National Competence Centres for Supercomputing, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, in cooperation with the Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC)<\/a>, Austria, the Research Area Scientific Computing in Innsbruck<\/a>, Austria, and the Slovenian consortium for high performance computing (SLING)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
