Advanced Computing Austria ACA

Ever wondered what #HPC could do for your business? Join the FFplus Industry Forum tomorrow, 28 October, live in Munich or online. Hear real SME success stories, learn from industry experts and explore how HPC and #AI can create business value. www.ffplus-project.eu/en/news-and-...

A successful #HPC proof of concept is only the beginning. #ACA supports companies from first test to production with compute time, European infrastructure and HPC expertise, while they retain control of #data and architecture. #PoC #Supercomputing www.advanced-computing.at/contact/

Behind every successfull #HPC project are enthusiastic people. So: meet Andreas Lindner, our project lead. As an #HPCExpert, he keeps an eye on workflows and practical implementation, but he also listens to what people really need. Interested? Contact us: www.advanced-computing.at/contact/

#HPC can process more data, but it cannot decide what matters. We help you define representative workloads, test suitable architectures and connect performance results. Our goal is evidence that supports a decision. Get in touch! #HPC #Supercomputing

Want to learn how to use thousands of #GPU cores? CUDA 4 Dummies is a beginner-friendly live online course by ASC/EuroCC, 27–28 Oct 2026. Hands-on labs, no prior #CUDA experience required. Free for eligible EU/EuroHPC participants. events.asc.ac.at/event/404/ #HPC #ParallelProgramming

#ACA is hiring in Vienna for two senior #AIFactoryAustria roles: Senior AI Platform Engineer: jobs.ait.ac.at/Job/273043 Senior DevSecOps Engineer: jobs.ait.ac.at/Job/273044 We’d be happy to hear from you. Please apply online. #HPC #HighPerformanceComputing #Supercomputing

Want to test your workload on #HPC before making a major infrastructure decision? #ACA provides access to European HPC infrastructure, compute time and technical support. Benchmark your code, measure scaling and decide what to do next. Contact: www.advanced-computing.at/contact/

Looking to explore how #HPC, #DataAnalysis and #AI could support your next project? Visit the #SIDE Forum on 8 December, with practical examples, funding information and direct access to supercomputing experts. Registration is now open: supercomputing-in.de/anmeldung-fu...

On World Teachers’ Day, we thank our trainers for making #HPC and #AI practical. Upcoming: Modern C++ Software Design (12–15 Oct; registration closes today), Introduction to Federated Learning (13 Oct) and AI in Manufacturing (21 Oct). #WorldTeachersDay #HPCtraining #cpp

At #EuroHPCUserDays, #AI and #HPC were part of the same conversation. We’re proud to help Austrian businesses run their AI and HPC workloads on European supercomputing systems. @eurohpc-ju.bsky.social @hpcineurope.bsky.social

Today's the last chance to register for our online “N‑Ways to GPU Programming Bootcamp” (14–15 Sept 2026). Intro to #CUDA, #OpenACC / #OpenMP, GPU‑accelerated C++/Fortran and Python, plus #Nsight Systems and a #CFD code challenge on an A100 #GPU. events.asc.ac.at/event/352/ #HPC #supercomputing

People often ask what kind of #HPC projects we are interested in at ACA. Typical fits: – clear #bottleneck – impact for people or environment – someone curious about performance – a focused #PoC If that sounds like your project, let’s talk: advanced-computing.at/contact #supercomputing

“We want serious compute, but we do not want our data to vanish into a hyperscaler universe.” If that sounds like you, ACA might fit. Use #HPC systems like #MUSICA and VSC‑4/VSC-5 in Austria and have your data under #GDPR. 👉 advanced-computing.at/contact

Astrophysicist Anne Hutter (@univie.ac.at) studies the very first galaxies revealed by the James Webb Space Telescope, and uses Austrian #HPC systems to understand why our models are suddenly back to square one. 👉 www.advanced-computing.at/early-univer... #EarlyUniverse #astrophysics #JWST

Two free online GPU bootcamps this September (for EU countries): 14–15 Sept: intro to GPU programming events.asc.ac.at/event/352/ 29–30 Sept: scaling CUDA+MPI apps to multi‑GPU and multi‑node events.asc.ac.at/event/358/

Free for participants from European countries: Multi-GPU Programming Bootcamp. 29 to 30 Sept 2026, online. Scale #CUDA and #MPI codes to multiple #GPUs and nodes, use #Nsight Systems, #NCCL and #NVSHMEM, with hands-on access to an A100 cluster. Info: events.asc.ac.at/event/358/ #HPC

It’s done: EuroCC Austria operates as Advanced Computing Austria (ACA). Same people, same HPC services, clearer home for HPC and AI in Austria. Plus a new website: www.advanced-computing.at

If you run #simulations or other data‑intensive workloads, it matters where you #compute. European #HPC keeps your data under #GDPR, avoids hidden lock‑in and lets you scale via pay‑per‑use instead of proprietary black boxes. Curious what that could look like for you? Get in touch.

Free online #CFD course: #OpenFOAM – Setting Up and Performing Fluid Dynamics Simulations on #HPC Systems 📅 13 July 2026, 09:00–13:00 CEST Beginner level, hands-on on ASC’s HPC via #JupyterHub, no local install needed. Register: events.asc.ac.at/event/314/ @asc.ac.at @claudiablaas.bsky.social

Today is the last chance to register for our free live online course “Parallelization with MPI (Beginner)”. For anyone working with simulations or data‑intensive workloads. 9–10 July, 09:30–14:00 CEST. Register: events.asc.ac.at/event/316/

Supercomputers sound like pure power and speed, but the real story is sockets and cooling water. New blog “Energy efficiency in HPC” on how much energy supercomputers use, how we cool them, and why waste‑heat reuse is so hard. eurocc-austria.at/en/blog/ener... @asc.ac.at #HPC #supercomputing

EuroCC Austria is evolving: From 1 September, Advanced Computing Austria (#ACA) becomes Austria’s national centre for supercomputing. Same people, wider scope; EuroCC continues under the ACA umbrella. New enquiries: info@advanced-computing.at #HPC

Upcoming online #HPCtrainings: quantum chemistry workflows, #OpenMP, #MPI (beginner to advanced) and #OpenFOAM. All courses are free of charge for participants from companies, public administration and academia in #EuroCC member countries. Overview and registration: events.asc.ac.at/category/4/

EuroCC Austria is becoming Advanced Computing Austria (#ACA). From 1 Sept, ACA will serve as Austria’s national competence centre for supercomputing, with EuroCC Austria continuing as a project within it. Same services, same people. #supercomputing #HPC

Engineers rarely get to A/B test society. At @tuwien.at, Stefan Neumann’s team runs social media on a supercomputer, studying how small recommender tweaks shift polarisation and may enable a new era of #socialmedia. Full story: eurocc-austria.at/en/blog/supe...

Rarely is a #HPC event majority female. At #ASC we hosted a Turkish delegation from UNDP’s and EU's women‑in‑manufacturing project: 9 of 15 participants were women. We shared insights to our systems, training work and @MUSICA, and left with new contacts and an invitation to Istanbul. #womenintech

@eurohpc-ju.bsky.social's Extreme Scale Access call is now open. A chance to run demanding models or simulations on Europe’s top systems: #JUPITER, #MareNostrum5, #Leonardo and #LUMI. Apply by 4 May: www.eurohpc-ju.europa.eu/eurohpc-ju-c... #PreExascale #Exascale #ExtremeScale
