For the fourth consecutive year, students from Heidelberg University demonstrated their international clout in the field of high-performance computing (HPC) by successfully participating in the Student Cluster Competition (SCC), integrated in the annual International High Performance Computing (ISC21) conference. Team Heidelbears, which had qualified for this year’s 12-team contest, served as only German representative in the international competition. The team delivered a strong showing and came out of the competition securing a solid 7^th place.

Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) will again be held in digital format only. The event will take place from June 24 to July 2, and the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) will be there with a dedicated website and a virtual booth.

The Leibniz Supercomputing Centre welcomes HPC enthusiasts from around the world to learn more about the inner workings of high-performance computing on SuperMUC-NG during its biannual workshop.
