NCC Montenegro hosts Supercomputing Workshops for new UDG students

As a part of the orientation week for new students, the EuroCC National Competence Centre Montenegro has organized a Supercomputing Workshop aimed at introducing incoming university students to the exciting world of high-performance computing (HPC).

The workshop featured interactive sessions where students could get insights into cutting-edge technologies used in supercomputing, such as parallel processing, intelligent algorithms, and data analytics. Experts from the NCC guided the participants through the technical fundamentals of HPC systems, demonstrated real-world applications related to Big Data processing and advanced AI modelling, but also provided examples of academic study cases and industry use cases, including Montenegro’s success stories.

The aim of the workshop was also to provide brief overview on HPC/AI related academic programs, training portfolio and NCC activities, to show how students can leverage supercomputing resources for academic projects and scientific research, or even for startup ideas and potential industry collaboration.

By exposing new students to the potential of supercomputing early in their academic journey, the NCC aims to support students’ development in high-demand, tech-driven carriers, and to foster community of innovative thinkers prepared to tackle complex and critical challenges of the modern world.

AIFUSION – Artificial intelligence in agriculture, medicine and energy

The University of Donja Gorica, with the support of the Innovation Fund of Montenegro, as part of the program for the organization of education in the areas of smart specialization of Montenegro, organizes a three-month training called “AIFUSION – Artificial intelligence in agriculture, medicine and energy.” The course will be held in the period from the end of September (September 21) to the end of December (December 21) 2024.

The education program is divided into 5 modules: Introduction to artificial intelligence, Computer vision, Natural language processing, Artificial intelligence and S3 in practice and Ethics and responsible use of artificial intelligence and work on the final project.

Apart from the fact that the participants will acquire enough knowledge and skills needed for further research in this very current field, they will have the opportunity to expand their network of acquaintances and meet young people with similar interests.

A detailed agenda is available at link.

To apply, you need to fill out the Google form found at the link https://forms.gle/f8Pc8ozu9U3tHKY98. Applications last until September 20 (11:59 p.m.), and the course is scheduled to start on September 21.

International Conference: Global commodity chains from a risk assessment perspective, BfR, May 2024

FoodHub and NCC Montenegro team attended the “International Conference: Global Commodity Chains from a Risk Assessment Perspective” in Berlin, hosted by German federal institute for Risk Assessment BfR. This conference brought together national and international experts in feed and food chains, digitalization, and consumer health protection. It was a fantastic platform to exchange knowledge on innovative techniques and digital solutions for evaluating risks in global commodity chains. The focus was on integrating data and insights about hazards, exposure, and technologies to enhance risk assessment along feed and food chains.

We proudly presented two abstracts in the poster/software session, as part of FoodDecide project:

  • Andrea Milacic, Amil Orahovac, Luka Filipovic, “Optimizing the Montenegrin Milk Supply Chain: A Data Visualization Approach”
  • Luka Filipovic, Andrea Milacic, Amil Orahovac, Aleksandra Martinovic, “HoneyChain: Enhancing Honey Production Monitoring System”
