As a part of the internal program of the NHR Conference we offer a session Consulting in the NHR alliance. It is devoted to the joint community of colleagues at the NHR centers and to all compute centers at universities collaborating with NHR centers. Experiences, best practices, and ideas for improvements will be presented and discussed.

organizers: Matthias Läuter (NHR@ZIB), Christian Köhler (NHR-NORD@Göttingen), and Robert Schade (PC2)

Schedule

time: Wednesday, 20.09.2023, 09.00 am - 10:30 am
location: Lecture Hall 1
