  • training in high-performance computing for local researchers.

Main activities of the project and venue(s) where the project activities were carried out

  1. Hackathon – 15.06.2022-20.06.2022
  2. Hands-on tutorial: Performance analysis tools for applications in high-performance computing. Lectures and practical exercises – 21.06.2022

Reached target group and number of persons involved

Direct: 19 hackathon participants and 8 participants of the hands-on tutorial.

Indirect: this target group is the international community of electronic-structure codes users, who will benefit from the results of this meeting in the future. We estimate their number as 200.
