Our activities at #ISC26 today include talks about the EPCC-led Computational Abilities Knowledge Exchange (www.cake.ac.uk) and the RISC-V ecosystem. To learn about the RISC-V ecosystem lab hosted by EPCC see: riscv.epcc.ed.ac.uk.

It is great to see Durham and SHAREing featured prominently at #ISC26

It was great to come back to the place where a lot of my research started. Kind of the birthplace of Peano (tobiasweinzierl.webspace.durham.ac.uk/software/pea...) which remains the AMR baseline of our ExaHyPE 2 rewrite.

Great to be in Hamburg at #ISC26. And even better to see a @cake-dri.bsky.social CoL on one of the opening slides.

What a week! #DurhamHPCDays are coming to a close, and we are all tired and loaded with ideas and enthusiasm at the same time. Lots of connections made or renewed, lots of discussions, laughter and insights. Thanks to everyone! Hope to see you all back in Durham next year!

Tobias is introducing our last speaker of the #DurhamHPCDays: Timo Betcke talking about PhD training at the interface of data, software and compute.

Everyone is gathered again at the #DurhamHPCDays to hear about the UKRI Compute Roadmap from Luke Davies.

Fifth day of Durham HPC Days. And still some people are up for a run in the early morning.

Everyone is gathered again at the #DurhamHPCDays to hear about the UKRI Compute Roadmap from Luke Davis.

This is a picture of one of our #HPCDays morning runs. Was great, but the guys are (too) fit (for me).

We have a brilliant set of sponsors at yhe #DurhamHPCDays , who will be telling us all about their products this afternoon. But who will be the lucky person winning the sponsor treasure hunt...?

We have ranked 85th in the QS World University Rankings 2027! Professor Karen O’Brien, our Vice-Chancellor and Warden, said: “To rise nine places to 85th in the QS World University Rankings is a tremendous achievement, in an outstanding year.” www.durham.ac.uk/discover/qs-world-university-rankings/

Another busy day ahead at #HPCDays, kicking off this morning with a session run by #DRI project ACIT-Hub about training research infrastructure engineers. Come chat with us more generally at the #CAKE booth throughout the event, lots of information about #DRI programme and freebies!

ACIT-Hub session at #HPCDays Durham invites audience members to discuss key questions around skills & training required by infrastructure engineers, and highlights some upcoming events. ACIT-Hub ensures this important part of the #DRI community is considered and needs addressed

Great keynote by Albert Reuther at #DurhamHPCDays!

Good discussions about how to close the implementation gap in the EDI session at #DurhamHPCDays (co-organised by Women in HPC and the CAKE-CoSeC EDI workinggroup).

Who would have thought that HPC people are so great at dancing? The #DurhamHPCDays Ceilidh is in full swing!

Thanks @inseismoland.bsky.social for dropping by. An excellent conference depends on excellent talks!

The NetDRIVE Summer School takes place this week, co-located with Durham HPC Days. It has brought together students from across the UK to learn about environmental sustainability in digital research computing - and to test environmentally-themed board games! edin.ac/4fImVNT

A crowded lecture hall again for John McCalpin's keynote at #DurhamHPCDays . (Note that John wears an orange lanyard, indicating he does not want his photo to be posted, therefore we "edited him out".)

The first keynote is by Sven Bodo Scholz who starts from the observation that tuning makes code (quality) worse and unfit for modern, heterogeneous hardware. And therefore should be done by compilers where possible. But are our compilers and programming languages fit for purpose?

Totally full room for the first tutorial of the HPC Day run by friends of Nvidia on AI model upscaling.

Great to be back in Munich for the ExaHyPE anniversary workshop. Great talk by Han @icc-durham.bsky.social on ExaGRyPE.

Citing a NWOBHM song from 1983: The Eagle Has Landed dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/... All if open access, all is worth reading!

Had a brilliant time down in Abingdon to learn more about the National Federated Compute Services NetworkPlus initiative: nfcs-networkplus.ac.uk Looking forward to read about their roadmap later this year.

Our @shareing.bsky.social project has a new call open (shareing-dri.github.io/task-map/). We are searching for projects: You propose a project and whatever you want to do around accelerate computing, as long as you meet at least one of the tasks/outcomes that the SHAREing team has identified.

Was great to have @vi-hps.mast.hpc.social.ap.brid.gy @durham-comp-sci.bsky.social today presenting MAQAO, Score-P, Scalasca, Extra-P, CUBE, ... Fun and sun on our side.

It is great to see a rather full house at our @vi-hps.mast.hpc.social.ap.brid.gy workshop in Durham.

Excellent talk by Amir Goharshady from @compscioxford.bsky.social at the Scientific Computing seminar @durham-comp-sci.bsky.social

We are excited that our 49th Tuning Workshop is about to starting next week in Durham, UK. Three days of in-depth training on the using of HPC performance tools and applying them on the participants own code under expert tutelage. https://www.vi-hps.org/training/tws/tw49.html
