A Day for the Industrial HPC User Community at ISC 2017

ISC High Performance is happy to announce a full-day program for industrial HPC users on Tuesday, June 20, specifically addressing challenges in the industrial manufacturing, transport and logistics sectors.

The Industrial Day is designed and chaired by high performance computing experts, Dr. Alfred Geiger of T-Systems, with Dr. Marie-Christine Sawley of Intel Data Center Group as Deputy Chair. This program is a reflection of their own experiences derived from working with user communities, as well as expectations of past years’ attendees.

The Industrial Day will address the following topics:

1. Benefits of exascale computing for industrial users
2. Infrastructure, services and software for industrial HPC
3. Use cases for high performance data analytics

The day will begin with a keynote talk at 8:30 am and end at 4:45 pm with a round-table discussion between industrial HPC users and HPC service and technology providers. This discussion will set the agenda for the Industrial Day at ISC 2018.
