Title: Supercomputing in Brazil and the LNCC
Date & Time: Wednesday, 27th Apr 2022 |14:00 -15:00 PM CEST
Agenda: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5879/
Registration: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_dFptRdqGS0amBf8zVPRYdg
Description:
Brazil has the fastest private and public supercomputers in Latin America. The supercomputer Santos Dumont is situated at the National Laboratory for Scientific Computing (LNCC) that coordinates the National High Performance Processing System (SINAPAD), which aggregates nine public supercomputing centres. In addition to services, LNCC develops interdisciplinary research and has a doctoral program in computational modelling with several strategic international collaborations.
Speaker: Prof. Fábio Borges, Director, National Laboratory for Scientific Computing (LNCC), Brazil
