Summer of HPC is a PRACE programme that offers university students the opportunity to spend two months in the summer at HPC centres accross Europe. The students work using HPC resources on projects that are related to PRACE work with the goal to produce a visualisation or a video.
At the end of the activity, every year two projects out of the 20 participants are selected and awarded for their outstanding performance.
This year the award ceremony will be held in Bologna at Cineca on 1 December from 11.00 to 13.30.
The program of the award event includes presentations given by PRACE Board of Directors representative, by the PRACE Project PMO, and the Chair of the SOHPC award committee. The two winners will be given the opportunity to present their project and results.
