EuroCC@Montenegro Conference Opened Today

EuroCC@Montenegro Conference started today. This conference is organized by the EuroCC and Castiel projects. This is currently one of the largest research projects in Europe, with a budget of around 60 million euros, and brings together, under the leadership of the University of Stuttgart, partners from 33 European countries. Through UDG, Montenegro is, along with North Macedonia, the only country from the region that participates in this prestigious project.

The project deals with high performance computing (super computing) and after two years of project duration, due to the pandemic, this is the first conference that is held live. We are happy that UDG, with its project results, deserved to host a conference in Montenegro that brought together over 200 researchers from prestigious European universities and institutes, from 33 countries.

EuroCC is currently one of the largest research projects in Europe, with a budget of around 60 million euros — under the leadership of the University of Stuttgart it brings together partners from 33 European countries. Because UDG is one of the partners, Montenegro is, along with Northern Macedonia, the only country from the region participating in this prestigious project.

The project deals with high performance computing. Due to the pandemic, this is the first in-person conference two years after the start of the project. We are happy that UDG’s contribution to the project was recognized, and that our recommended results lead to us hosting a conference in Montenegro. The conference brings together over 200 researchers from prestigious European universities and institutes, from 33 countries.
