Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
MaX Newsletter April 2020 (No replies)
Back to General announcements...
The April 2020 issue of the MaX (Materials Design at the Exascale) newsletter is now ready and accessible. In this issue we focus on:
* DFT and GW towards the exascale: porting of the MaX codes on GPUs. To better exploit the potential offered by future pre-exascale and exascale HPC architectures, a number of MaX codes, as well as core libraries, have been released production-ready with GPU-support on heterogeneous architectures.
* Co-design in materials science toward the exascale. Within the MaX co-design activity, Quantum ESPRESSO, one of the MaX flagship codes, has been used as a demonstrator for cutting edge new HPC technology (ARM + NVIDIA GPUs).
* Machine Learning: Improved predictions for time-to-solution of materials science simulations. Using only input file details and runtime options as descriptors, Machine Learning techniques have been applied to predict the time required by a set of algorithms used in a self-consistent field interaction of the Density Functional Theory method.
In the present issue you can also find updates on recent activities concerning MaX flagship codes, MaX researchers and upcoming events organised by MaX.
