About

High-Performance Computing (HPC) has revolutionized the ability to simulate and analyze complex environmental phenomena at unprecedented scales and speeds. This program introduces participants to the principles of HPC and its use in simulating environmental processes such as atmospheric circulation, ocean currents, pollution dispersion, and ecosystem dynamics. Through HPC, large-scale simulations can be conducted more efficiently, allowing for more accurate predictions of climate change impacts, natural disasters, and resource management strategies.
Participants will explore HPC architectures, parallel computing, and data-intensive processing techniques that enable the modeling of highly complex environmental systems. Case studies will demonstrate how HPC is applied in climate modeling, renewable energy optimization, and biodiversity conservation.
