The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking is organising its first EuroHPC USER DAY!
This dissemination event will bring together EuroHPC Users and is an opportunity for users to showcase their projects, learn about different topics and deepen their understanding on the possibilities offered by the EuroHPC Joint Undertakingđ
This onsite event will also be a great networking opportunity.
An event “STEMpower” was held at the University of Donja Gorica (UDG) as part of the “Days of Science and Innovation” Festival. Students from high schools from Podgorica, Bar and Pljevlja had the opportunity to listen to interesting lectures about supercomputers, artificial intelligence and machine learning and to visit the laboratories of the UDG.
NCC Montenegro representative Luka Filipovic gave a presentation on Romanian HPC event âHPC and Al Technologies: Accelerating Innovation through collaborationâ. Luka spoke on âEmpowering Breakthroughs through HPC Collaborationâ panel and gave presentation about NCC activities and Montenegrin success stories.
NCC Montenegro representative Ms Sanja Nikolic gave a presentation for to the undergraduate students of Facullty for Information Systems and Technogies, within the scope of Science and Innovation Days@UDG. The presentation covered the following topics:
HPC/HPDA/AI technological aspects, commercial aplications and industry benfits,
MNE market reserach results on Cloud HPC awearness and utilisation,
EuroCC2 project, Euro HPC supercomputing opportunities and MNE NCC activities and results,
HPC/AI Succes Stories in the areas of smart solutions for poultry farms, precise weather forecast in challenging topography of Montenegro and short-term predictive pricing posibilities in energy markets.
Presentation to the students of the final BSc year at FIST
EuroCC powered Master program in Artifitial Intelligence and HPC related training courses were also presented, in the scope of their potential enrollment and competences development. Following the interactive discussion, students also demonstrated the interest in understanding access to supercomputing resources and performances, and challanges related to industry interraction and HPC/AI uptake by SMEs.
Students expressed their interest in AI master program and HPC technology
Representatives of NCC Montenegro attended virtual event EuroHPC JU Information Day for AI on Supercomputers held on 26 September 2023. Further topics were thoroughly elaborated and interactively discussed:
how EuroHPC JU supercomputers can be used for AI applications,
EuroHPC supercomputers access opportunities,
current and upcoming AI related calls and activities,
the support possibilities of EuroCC national competence centers
examples of HPC/AI success stories from Croatia, Sweden, Denmark, Spain and North Macedonia.

EuroHPC JU organizes a virtual Information Day on AI and Supercomputers on Sep 26th
EuroHPC JU is a joint initiative between the EU, European countries and private partners to develop a World Class Supercomputing Ecosystem in Europe. It is jointly funded by its members with a budget of around EUR 7 billion. At the moment EuroHPC JU is operating six of the biggest and fastest supercomputers in Europe and globally, equipped with different types of GPUs and CPUs as well as other types of processors for users to use. Whether these are situated in your own country or in neighbouring countries you can access them for free.
Representatives from NCC Montenegro and NCC Romania organized a productive one-day online workshop aimed at sharing knowledge and complementary experiences related to academic collaboration, training activities, industry interaction processes, communication tools and success stories/use cases. The agenda for the meeting is available at this link.
During the workshop, participants contributed with valuable insights and engaged in constructive discussions around common challenges including: training portfolio development, open source code repositories, cross-NCCs Open Call for innovative SMEs, technical expertise /HPC infrastructure access, methodologies for competence mapping, needs assessment end-user engagement, service offerings, communication channels exploitation etc.
A dedicated session was also conducted, with a focus on HPC/HPDA/AI success stories and use cases, primarily in smart agriculture, precise meteorology, and medical AI/ML based applications. This session generated discussions on benefits provided by AI/ML models and underlying HPC technologies, including increased productivity, enhanced model performance, improved accuracy and time-saving solutions.
The collaboration between both teams proved successful start, setting a solid foundation for future joint activities. Initial timing and resource planning were discussed for upcoming joint training sessions tailored for academia, researchers and students, as well as an opportunity for co-organized workshops designed for industry managers.
