** Workshops and Tutorials at EuroMPI: Register Now  

The aim of the EuroMPI conference is to bring together all of the stakeholders 
involved in developments and applications related to the Message Passing 
Interface (MPI). As part of this, the conference has strong programme of tutorials on Sunday 25th September. 

Two tutorials are being presented covering novel topics of interest to EuroMPI attendees:

* Machine Learning at Scale - Tom Ashby, IMEC, Belgium, & Tom Vander Aa, Exascience Lab at IMEC, Belgium. This tutorial aims to give the HPC audience insight into the needs and opportunities for using HPC tools for machine learning on large data sets.

* Survival in an MPI World - George Bosilca, Innovative Computing Laboratory, University of Tennessee. In this tutorial, we will present a holistic approach to fault tolerance by introducing multiple fault management techniques, while maintaining the focus on User Level Failure Mitigation (ULFM), a minimal extension of the MPI specification to introduce resilience in applications.

Full details of the tutorials are available at:

** Careers in HPC: An Evening With Interesting People

Organised by Women in HPC, but open to all

Sunday, 25 September 2016 from 15:30 to 21:30 

Held in collaboration with EuroMPI 2016 and hosted by WHPC, we invite you to join us to learn about creating impact from your work and how to develop your career in scientific software engineering. Finish the evening by meeting leading experts from the MPI community from around the world over dinner.
 
This session will be followed a special networking evening designed to provide you with key skills to develop your career and meet experts from the HPC and MPI community. This event, hosted by Women in HPC, but open to everyone will host a panel discussion on creating impact from your work: insight into the UK academic funding landscape, as well as a discussion on the opportunities available for careers for Research Software Engineers. The evening will finish with a dinner where you can meet leading members of the MPI and HPC community from around the world.
