NUG 2020
August 17, 2020
All NERSC users are invited to join us at the NERSC Users Group (NUG) annual meeting on August 17, 2020. This year, the meeting will be online only.
NUG 2020 will focus on the upcoming Perlmutter system, which will arrive in two phases starting later this year. Please join us to learn about Perlmutter and its capabilities, how NERSC is preparing its facility to support the system, resources for helping get your applications running on the Phase I's GPUs, plans for software and services, how and when users will get access, and system features to support AI/learning and data analysis of experimental/observational data.
Contributed Lightning Talks
Users who would like to share experiences or scientific results are invited to submit an abstract for a short 10-minute lightning talk. Please submit a title and short abstract in the registration form (see link below), describing your proposed talk. Talks of broad interest or on the theme of preparing codes for Perlmutter are particularly encouraged. Selection of talks will be made by the NUG Executive Committee and NERSC staff.
