The National Centre for Supercomputing Applications-Bulgaria is pleased to announce the next PRACE Autumn School which will be on Massively Parallel Architectures and Molecular Simulations in Sofia from 24 to 28 September 2012. Within a five day intensive event participants will be introduced multi scales/multi physics molecular simulation methods and software for high performance computing applications in molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, pharmacology research, cell medicine, immunology, chemical synthesis, atomic level material damage investigations and investigation of clusters of billions of nanoparticles. The School will focus on the following topics: DL_POLY; Long-Range Interactions calculations; GROMACS; Massively Parallel Computers. Registration ========== To apply for a place please go to http://scc.acad.bg/ncsa/index.php/en /?option=com_content&view=article&id=183. The school is offered free of charge to students and academics, and lunches, coffee breaks and an evening dinner event will be provided. Please note that some knowledge of C, C++ or Fortran is a pre-requisite for this course. Attendance is limited to 50 places, and selection of participants will be based on demonstrated understanding in molecular modeling and computational science and high-performance computing. The registration deadline: August 20, 2012 More information can be found on the PRACE web site: http:// www.prace-ri.eu/PRACE-Autumn-School-2012?lang=en Please contact Georgi Prangov at NCSA-Bulgaria: gprangov_at_mtitc.government.bg for further information.
