Dear HPC users of LRZ, The Czech-Bavarian Competence Team for Supercomputing Applications invites all interested researchers to a workshop on exploiting high performance computing (HPC) for natural hazard assessment and disaster mitigation at LRZ on June 28-30, 2017. Contributed presentations are welcome on all related topics, such as simulation of geological or meteorological hazards, floods, wildfire, diseases or any other hazard to society. Of special interest to our workshop will be presentations addressing demands and desired features of (future) simulation software, efficient usage of current and novel HPC platforms, as well as establishing scalable simulation workflows including large data sets in HPC environments. To register for participation in the workshop, please refer to https://www.lrz.de/services/compute/courses/2017-06-28_hnha1s17/ There is no registration fee for participation. If you wish to give a presentation, please submit a title and short abstract (10-20 lines) via email to Michael Bader <bader@in.tum.de<mailto:bader@in.tum.de>>. The workshop is collocated with the PRACE PATC Course "Intel MIC Programming Workshop" (June 26-28, separate registration necessary) at LRZ, see: https://events.prace-ri.eu/event/609/. In particular, the two events will share a series of invited talks on June 28 (Wednesday afternoon).
