IT4Innovations is inviting academia to the GPU programming – CUDA course, which will be held at IT4Innovations on October 7, 2022. The main goal of the course is to introduce how to program GPU accelerated applications using CUDA programming.  

IT4Innovations is inviting you to a course, Introduction to Machine and Deep Learning, which will be held hybrid (online and onsite) on 29th November 2022.

We invite you to the EGI Conference 2022.

I am pleased to invite you to the 3rd ESFRI Open Session, with the leading theme Research Infrastructures and Big Data. The event will take place on June 30th 2022, from 13:00 until 14:30 CEST and will be fully virtual.

Its name is LUMI and is installed in Kajaani, Finland. Only a third of it is operational, but even this, with a peak performance of 151.9 PFlop/s, has earned it third place in the ranking of the most powerful supercomputers in the world, and even gold in Europe. We are talking about the long-awaited European supercomputer star - the LUMI supercomputer. It offers part of its computational resources to the scientific community in the Czech Republic thanks to the membership of IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center, which is part of VSB - Technical University of Ostrava, in the consortium building this supercomputer.

We invite you to the first EOSC roadshow in Prague, Brno and Ostrava, which takes place in June 2022.

The presentation from the the first e-INFRA CZ conference are available.

Two-day online course, which serves as a detailed introduction to the LUMI-C environment and architecture. Participants will also learn about porting, executing, and optimizing applications for the environment.

The EuroCC National Competence Centers of the Czech Republic and Turkey are inviting you to the jointly developed tutorial High Performance CFD using OpenFOAM.

We would like to bring to your attention this course organized by EuroCC National Competence Center of Sweden. IT4Innovations as the EuroCC Czech National Competence Center is providing supercomputing resources for the hands-on exercises during this training and has been granted seats for our users.

The course will offer an introduction to the fundamental concepts of performance, power consumption, and energy efficiency in HPC systems. 

In February 13th, 1992, our country joined the Internet. We celebrated the anniversary at a conference. Famous Vint Cerf also sent his greetings.

The Council of the CESNET Development Fund announced the tender for development projects for 2022.

The first personality from the region of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) to be inducted into the prestigious Internet Hall of Fame is Jan Gruntorád, founder and until this July Director of CESNET Association.

Deep Learning is a powerful AI approach that uses multi-layered artificial neural networks to deliver state-of-the-art accuracy in tasks such as object detection, speech recognition, and language translation. Using deep learning, computers can learn and recognize patterns from data that are considered too complex or subtle for expert-written software. 

Applications for natural language processing (NLP) have exploded in the pastdecade. With the proliferation AI assistants and organizations infusing their businesses with more interactive human-machine experiences, understanding how NLP techniques can be used to manipulate analyze, and generate text-based data is essential.

The one-week course focuses on parallel programming with the Message Passing Interface (MPI), OpenMP and CUDA. A general introduction into HPC and its benefits will be presented and the different parallel programming paradigms will be duly explained allowing participants to write parallel applications that can fully exploit modern HPC hardware.

The EOSC Future project is hosting its first EOSC Future Open Days from 23 to 25 November 2021. The agenda is already available: https://eoscfuture.eu/eventsfuture/eosc-future-open-days/ 
 

This course is dedicated to the most powerful Czech supercomputer KAROLINA. Participants will learn about its architecture and key parameters, how to access IT4Innovations resources, how to run jobs and how to use the GPU accelerated partition. 

The CESNET Association has implemented a significant upgrade of the technology in the SAGElab network multimedia laboratory. The original five control servers have been replaced by one more powerful one, which displays content simultaneously on all twenty monitors available in the lab. In addition to the increased computing power, space and power savings have been made.
