On behalf of the bwHPC initiative, you are cordially invited to participate in the upcoming 10th bwHPC symposium on

September 25th and 26th at the University of Freiburg.

Registration is now open.

bwHPC Symposium

If you would like to actively participate in the 10th bwHPC Symposium, you have 4 options:

  • Presentation (15 minutes)
  • Lightning talk (5 minutes)
  • Poster
  • Paper for the conference proceedings (4-15 pages)

Multiple contributions are possible (e.g. a poster and a presentation). We accept contributions in English and German language.

Researchers are invited to present scientific results and future projects within the framework of bwHPC and bwCloud, two initiatives that provide researchers in Baden-Württemberg with large-scale digital infrastructures. A particular focus will be on sustainability and energy efficiency in the fields of high performance computing, cloud computing and research data management.

The event will offer tutorials and scientific presentations along with opportunities to enter into a dialogue with senior researchers already making use of these significant computational resources.

The symposium is free of charge and attendance is open to researchers from all scientific fields. We welcome participants from outside Baden-Württemberg.

For registration, submission of contributions and further details, please visit the event website.

Please note the deadlines for submissions to the conference. In particular, for paper submissions to be included in the proceedings, the respective deadline is 31.07.2024.

We are looking forward to your participation.

Sincerely, Your bwHPC symposium team

NEMO2 Production Mode

NEMO2 has officially launched, transitioning from a testing phase to full production with expanded hardware, including AMD Instinct MI300A and Nvidia L40A nodes. NEMO1 is being phased out, with limited resources available until May 31st. Users are encouraged to transition to NEMO2 and consult the wiki for details.

NEMO2 Conda

NEMO2 uses Miniforge for conda environments, offering a streamlined setup with conda-forge as the default repository. The Miniforge module auto-initializes conda, simplifying environment activation without modifying shell profiles.

Genoa Nodes Delivered

The AMD Genoa, Machine Learning and AI partitions for NEMO2 were delivered on December 4th. The acceptance of the storage has been delayed, so that NEMO2 could not yet start this year. However, calculations with the Milan nodes in NEMO1 are still possible.
