The annual NHR-Conference is aiming at promoting scientific exchange among the HPC-user community.
The aim of the scientific conference is to bring together HPC users working on selected topics, varying each year.
This years topics are: Atomistic Simulation, Life Science and Agent-based Simulation
From September 4 to 7, 2023, the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing hosted their first hackathon event that brought together researchers with diverse scientific backgrounds to collaborate on innovative High-Performance Computing (HPC) projects. Key themes included software development, accelerator programming, performance engineering, and project infrastructure support.
Große Rechenzentren sind aus unserem Alltag oft nicht mehr wegzudenken. Daten für Videokonferenzen, Livestreaming und Video-on-demand werden zum Beispiel Tag für Tag in riesigen Mengen verarbeitet und schnellstmöglich an Endgeräte übertragen. Unternehmen speichern und verarbeiten viele Daten, um uns unsere liebsten Services direkt auf Smartphone & Co. anbieten zu können. Auch die Forschung kann durch spezialisierte Rechenleistung unterstützt…
This autumn school introduces first-principles electronic-structure calculations. Lectures provide theoretical background on methods and materials. Practical experience will be gathered during hands-on tutorials using our CP-PAW code. In the optional second week the focus will be on a guided self-study project which will be presented in a seminar. The course targets physicists and chemists during their masters or PhD studies.
Making history with 42 digits: Researchers at the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing (PC2) and KU Leuven have solved decades-old mathematical challenge by computing the so-called ninth Dedekind number. Experts worldwide have been searching for the value since 1991. The Paderborn scientists arrived at the exact sequence of numbers with the help of the Noctua supercomputer located at PC2 . The results will be presented in September at the…

On November 7. and 8. the National Alliance of High-Performance Computing (NHR) has introduced the "NHR Computational Physics Center" (CPC) through a virtual inauguration symposium.
On the 3rd of November 2022 14:00-17:00, our fifth annual PC² User Meeting will take place. The meeting will be held in a hybrid fashion. We cordially invite all interested people to join the event in person in room P1.4.17 on our campus. Additionally, we will provide online access for those who cannot personally come to Paderborn.
A team led by scientists Prof. Thomas D. Kühne and Prof. Christian Plessl at Paderborn University has broken the exascale barrier for mixed-precision computation for a computational science application and has achieved 1.1 EFLOP/s application-level performance in the quantum chemistry application CP2K on the NERSC Perlmutter system.
