SUMMARY:

International Summer School on HPC Challenges in Computational Sciences June 23-28 2013 New York University, New York NY USA
https://www.xsede.org/web/summerschool13
Applications due Monday March 18 2013

DETAILS:

Training is available for students in U.S., Europe, and Japan at the International Summer School on HPC Challenges in Computational Sciences.

Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in the United States, Europe, and Japan are invited to apply for the fourth International Summer School on HPC Challenges in Computational Sciences, to be held June 23-28 2013, at New York University in New York City.

The summer school is sponsored by the U.S. National Science Foundation's Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment
(XSEDE) project, the European Union Seventh Framework Program's Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe (PRACE), and RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computational Science (RIKEN AICS).

Leading American, European and Japanese computational scientists and high-performance computing technologists will offer instruction on a variety of topics, including:

* Access to EU, U.S., and Japanese cyberinfrastructures

* HPC challenges by discipline (e.g., bioinformatics, computer science, chemistry, and physics)

* HPC programming proficiencies

* Performance analysis & profiling

* Algorithmic approaches & numerical libraries

* Data-intensive computing

* Scientific visualization

The expense-paid summer school will benefit advanced scholars from European, U.S., and Japanese institutions who use HPC to conduct research.
