AI - From Laptop to Supercomputer - Join the GCS and NHR Web Seminar
Newsflash 14/2026 –

The Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) and the National High-Performance Computing Network (NHR) have launched a joint collaboration to support users in accessing computing time for artificial intelligence (AI) applications on high-performance computing (HPC) resources.

In our upcoming web seminar, we will again provide an overview of the HPC landscape in Germany, introduce supercomputer/HPC architecture, and explain how and where to apply for compute time. This will serve as a starting point for you to apply for compute time at a German Tier 1 or 2 HPC center.

Join our next Introductory web seminar:
