This year’s program expands its focus on artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and digital twins as interconnected areas of high-performance innovation. Technical sessions, workshops, and case studies will explore their convergence, from AI-accelerated HPC workflows and early hybrid quantum-classical models to large-scale digital twins used to design, validate, and optimize complex systems.
The conference opens with a dedicated tutorial day, followed by three days of keynotes, invited talks, panels, and interactive activities. Attendees will gain practical insights across HPC, AI, quantum computing, digital twin engineering, cloud architectures, containerized workflows, and more.
Registration is required for all participants and includes a nominal attendee fee charged in advance. Registration also covers daily breaks and lunch, as well as a group outing, which requires confirmation during the registration process.
