Presented by ATISH DABHOLKAR (ICTP), ALESSANDRO CURIONI (IBM & AI ALLIANCE), SANDRO SCANDOLO (ICTP) on 27/5/2024 at 7:00
Moderator: Stefano BARONI (SISSA) Synopsis Scientific computing has emerged as the third pillar of the scientific method, along with theory and experiment, and has provided insights where theory or experiment alone could not, for example in the projection of future climate changes, in the design of new materials for clean energy, and in the analysis of cosmological observations. This session w ... More
Presented by STEFANO BORGANI (UNITS/INAF), ANDREA CAVALLI (CECAM, LAUSANNE), ERIKA COPPOLA (ICTP), GIULIA GALLI (UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO) on 27/5/2024 at 7:30
Moderator: Roberto TROTTA (SISSA) Synopsis This session will focus on the more recent advancements in the AI fields, giving particular attention to AI models for scientific discovery. Large language models and foundational models are revolutionizing AI, but will these models, trained on a very big set of unlabeled data, replace task-specific models traditionally implemented to solve scientific ...

Presented by EIMAN KANJO (NTU/TURING INSTITUTE/ICL), TEODORO LAINO (IBM), NICOLA MARZARI (EPFL, NCCR MARVEL), MARC MEZARD (BOCCONI, MILANO), GUIDO SANGUINETTI (SISSA) on 27/5/2024 at 8:50
Moderator: Marcello DALMONTE (ICTP) Synopsis This session will discuss present opportunities and future perspectives of quantum computing. Questions on the agenda will include: what are the problems that quantum computing can contribute to solving, in science and for the larger benefit of society? What are the corresponding time scales? How do quantum technologies interface with other emerging ... More
Presented by MARK JACKSON (QUANTINUUM), MARTIN MUELLER (GESDA), FRANCESCO PETRUCCIONE (NITHECS, SOUTH AFRICA), PETER ZOLLER (UNIVERSITY OF INNSBRUCK AND IQOQI) on 27/5/2024 at 9:40
Moderator: Stefano COZZINI (Area Science Park) Synopsis Advanced computing and high-performance computers (HPC) have been used to model, simulate and analyse scientific problems in different fields, from astrophysics to climate science, since the dawn of the modern computing era. In the last half century, the models studied by HPC systems have increased exponentially both in scale and resoluti ... More
Presented by MATT BETTENCOURT (NVIDIA), GABRIEL FONSECA-GUERRA (INTEL/NEUROMORPHIC LAB), THOMAS SCHULTHESS (CSCS, SWITZERLAND), NICOLA VENUTI (AMAZON WEB SERVICES) on 27/5/2024 at 12:00
Moderator: Ivan GIROTTO (ICTP) Synopsis Several challenges hinder the deployment and efficient exploitation of large-scale computational infrastructures in the global South, among them limited access to technological advances, brain drain, and lack of computing "ecosystems". The session aims at surveying the current status of large/middle-scale HPC infrastructures in the global South, and asse ... More
Presented by FABIO AFFINITO (CINECA), ROBERT BASMADJIAN (TOUBKAL SUPERCOMPUTER, MOROCCO), THOMAS SCHULTHESS (CSCS, SWITZERLAND), HAPPY SITHOLE (NICIS, SOUTH AFRICA) on 27/5/2024 at 12:50
Moderator: Sandro SCANDOLO (ICTP) Synopsis This session will present new international initiatives (EuroHPC, ICTP's Consortium, AI Alliance, MOC Alliance), focused on HPC, AI, and cloud development, aiming to provide global and inclusive access to HPC and cloud technologies for scientific computing, together with the educational tools necessary to use these technologies effectively. This is a ... More
Presented by SARA BONELLA (CECAM), ALESSANDRO CURIONI (IBM & AI ALLIANCE), ALESSIA D'ORAZIO (NATIONAL HPC, BIG DATA E QUANTUM COMPUTING RESEARCH CENTRE, ICSC), ELISA MOLINARI (UNIVERSITY OF MODENA AND MAX CENTER OF EXCELLENCE), KINGSLEY OBODO (EAIFR, RWANDA), JON STUMPF (MASS OPEN CLOUD ALLIANCE) on 27/5/2024 at 14:10
