NCC Montenegro at the 13th Science Festival – Supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence

On Friday, September 26, at the Bemax Arena in Podgorica, the 13th Science Festival – “European Researchers’ Night” will take place, organized by the Foundation for the Promotion of Science PRONA (https://festival-nauke.me/).

NCC Montenegro at the 13th Science Festival

The National Competence Center for High Performance Computing – NCC Montenegro (EuroCC2 and EuroCC4SEE), represented through the University of Donja Gorica, will participate in this largest event in Montenegro dedicated to the popularization of science and innovation.

Interaction with the youngest attendees

Through several projects and demonstrations, visitors will see how supercomputers and artificial intelligence (HPC/AI) are shaping the future:

  • Agriculture – the AIMHiGH project applies AI for real-time poultry disease and behavior analysis.
  • Human resources – AI tools for improving business processes and enhancing objectivity in decision-making.
  • Medicine – the AI-AGE project develops AI models for detecting biomarkers of aging from medical imaging.

This event is an opportunity to demonstrate how HPC and AI contribute to sustainable development and the digital transformation of society, while highlighting Montenegro’s active role in the European Research Area.

Through EuroCC2 and EuroCC4SEE, NCC Montenegro continues to build bridges between science and industry, supporting researchers and companies in developing new digital solutions, and positioning Montenegro as part of the European supercomputing and AI community.

Connecting science, innovation and society

The Science Festival once again confirms the importance of NCC Montenegro in connecting science, innovation, and society.

NCC Montenegro Presented at EuroCC4SEE Seminar: AI Meets Precision Agriculture

We are pleased to share that Ivan Jovović, MSc, from NCC Montenegro (University of Donja Gorica), delivered an invited presentation at the EuroCC4SEE seminar series titled “AI Meets Precision Agriculture” on July 18, 2025. The event was hosted by EuroCC Turkey and gathered around 20 participants from across the region.

There was about 20 attendess for this presentation

This presentation explored the transformative role of artificial intelligence in modern agriculture, with a focus on how data-driven technologies are redefining farming practices. Ivan highlighted practical applications of AI and machine learning for optimizing crop yields, monitoring environmental conditions, and enabling sustainable resource use. Real-world examples from Montenegrin vineyards and pilot Living Labs were discussed, emphasizing integration of AI, IoT, and edge computing in precision agriculture workflows.

The talk also showcased how HPC resources and national competence centers, such as NCC Montenegro, support the development and scaling of these intelligent solutions for the agri-food sector.

The presentation included HPC powered ML solution for poultry industry

This event is part of the EuroCC4SEE initiative, which promotes knowledge exchange and collaboration among national competence centers in Southeast Europe. We thank the organizers from EuroCC Turkey for the opportunity and look forward to future joint activities!
