The HPC Connection Workshop is an international High-Performance Computing event that is held three times per year: during the ASC in China, the ISC in Germany, and the SC in the USA. At the Workshop, top researchers and leading professionals from around the world gather together to discuss the latest developments in supercomputing and artificial intelligence. The HPC Connection Workshop has been one of the main events at the conference for seven years, and it has become quite popular, attracting hundreds of people in attendance.
The major theme of this year’s 22nd Workshop will be AI and Supercomputing, Challenges and Innovation. Professionals will exchange ideas among highly interdisciplinary fields and discuss cutting-edge technologies and strong synergies in supercomputing and artificial intelligence.
