The Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) and the three GCS centres—the High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS), the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), and the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ)—successfully participated in this year’s International Supercomputing Conference (ISC23), which took place May 12–16 at the Congress Center in Hamburg, Germany.
During the conference, representatives of the centres engaged with the community through a series of exciting exhibits, virtual reality models, and other live demonstrations.

Additionally, the centres’ staffs played a significant role in the event’s technical program, with staffers actively participating in various events during the conference.
In addition, GCS was pleased to continue its commitment to supporting young, enthusiastic, talented students who participated in the Student Cluster Competition (SCC), a friendly high-performance computing (HPC) skills contest actively shaping the careers of international STEM university students. The competition is a chance for enthusiastic students to learn more about HPC by introducing them to the industry, HPC systems, machine learning applications, and more.
The joint team from the University of Hamburg and Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg also visited the GCS team directly at the stand during a free time slot, giving them further insight into the HPC world.
