FollowGPUs for Science 2020, June 30 - July 1, 2020
June 30 - July 1, 2020
In anticipation of our next system, Perlmutter, which will arrive soon, NERSC has a crucial role to play in helping the wider scientific community leverage and embrace GPUs for their simulation, data processing, and machine learning workloads. Part of this role includes hosting events like GPUs for Science, the goal of which is to help facilitate the transition to GPU systems by giving scientists the motivation, the tools, and the expertise they need to make this change possible.
