HPC+DIC User Meetings

Interdisciplinary network to enhance communication, visability and creativity between life sciences, engineering, informatics and mathematics in the fields high performance (HPC) and data intensive computing (DIC)

 

The SCC offers a range of services and infrastructures for scientists in the field of high-performance computing (HPC) and data-intensive sciences (DIC). For the further development of these services and infrastructures, a close exchange with users is essential. That is why a new series of events was launched in November 2016, where operators and users can meet and exchange ideas in an informal setting: The HPC+DIC user meeting.
