NumPEx holds its first General Assembly

Over two days, participants engaged in discussions, workshops, and guest talks to explore the challenges of integrating Exascale computing into a broader digital continuum. The first day was marked by the live announcement that France had been selected to host one of the European AI Factories.

This General Assembly was also the perfect occasion to introduce YoungPEx to the entire PEPR community through a presentation and one of its first workshop. YoungPEx is a new initiative aimed at fostering collaboration among young researchers, including PhD students, post-docs, engineers, and volunteer permanent researchers. It will serve as a dynamic platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and interdisciplinary collaboration across the HPC and AI communities.

We were also pleased to welcome the TRACCS and Cloud research programs, which presented both ongoing and potential collaborations with NumPEx.

With this first General Assembly, NumPEx strengthens its community and continues its paths to Exascale and beyond.
