From Monday, September 11 to Friday, September 15, 2023, the RIKEN International HPC Summer School 2023 was held online. The summer school was first held in FY 2018 as a program to interest students and young researchers in entering the field of computing and related technology, and this year’s summer school was the fifth time the program was held. (There was no summer school in FY 2019 due to IHPCSS being held in Kobe.) This year’s summer school had a total of 47 participants, including students (graduate students), researchers, and individuals in the private sector.
Participants learned about parallel programming and execution methods and the skills they need to master them through lectures by Deputy Director Kengo Nakajima (RIKEN) and Team Leader Toshiyuki Imamura (RIKEN). Participants also had the opportunity to experience hands-on training sessions with Wisteria/BDEC-01 Odyssey (Wisteria-O/The University of Tokyo).
Comments from the participants included, “I really like instructors detailed explanation and easy to follow hands-on exercise.” “The content of the lecture is very interesting, and the exercise is also very useful. However, it would be even better if there is an ample of opportunity to exchange ideas between the participants of this summer school.” “I want to visit this institute and receive a detailed briefing on the supercomputers.” “This school plays a very important role in the community.”
We hope to welcome many more participants in the coming years!
