On Monday 29 August, the National Laboratory for High Performance Computing (NLHPC) of CMM will hold this workshop, which has as speakers to Bill Magro, Director of High Performance Computing Intel Software Solutions, and Ricardo Medel, who works in the area of HPC at the Center for Intel Software Development Argentina.
This activity will take place in the seminar room of the Department of Mathematical Engineering, located at Avenida Blanco Encalada 2120 and is aimed at graduate students, engineers and academics working in the area of application development using the methods and techniques of HPC .
Besides being an opportunity to learn the most prominent projects in the area that Intel has developed, this workshop aims to establish what is the relation between the HPC Software Solutions area and customers in the scientific world, industry and government.
The first of two talks will be held at 15:00 hours and in it Bill Magro will present the Intel HPC's projects. The second talk is in charge of Ricardo Medel, who will give an overview of its development projects. The latter will take place at 16:30 hours.
Bill Magro
