ETP4HPC at ISC’16, 20–22 June, Frankfurt

ISC’16 got off to a great start on Monday afternoon, where booths both small and big - 146 exhibitors - were ready to receive visitors and show their wares. There was a buzz in the air over the three day event, a feast of HPC and exascale innovation, as networking and collaboration were in full swing, and new hardware and software was discovered. The ETP4HPC team was at booth #413 where members and visitors could discuss and discover more about our update on the Strategic Research Agenda and the latest details on the development of European HPC Technology.  

On Monday, Satoshi Matsuoka started events by giving an over view of the programme. During the course of the three day event there were many key note presentations, BoF sessions and workshops given on exascale supercomputing, which included: breaking news on the No. 1 on the latest Top500 list – the Chinese system, Sunway TaihuLight and Intel’s XeonPhi; European exascale projects etc.. Jean-François Lavignon, our chair, gave a presentation on the HPC European ecosystem, which included the four dimensions of the SRA (Strategic Research Agenda).

The topics of focus in this year’s event were: Big Data and HPC Convergence; Performance Modeling and Prediction; Advanced Disaster Prediction and Mitigation; State of the Art in Life Science & Computational Systems Biology; Challenges in Extreme Engineering; Exascale Architectures: Disruptions, Denials & Directions; Algorithms for Extreme Scale in Practice; HPC in IoT and Robotics; Deep Learning; Basics and Applications; and, Connected Cars and Big Data.

ETP4HPC will be hosting a workshop on Thursday the 23rd at ISC’16.
