About the Americas HPC Collaboration Workshop
https://americashpccollaboration.net/

The first edition of the Americas High Performance Computing (HPC) Collaboration Workshop seeks to showcase collaborations that have resulted from the partnerships formed between researchers and entities across the Americas, from Patagonia to Alaska, including Caribbean institutions.

The event will also share opportunities and experiences between HPC Networks and Laboratories from countries in North, Central, South America, and the Caribbean. The goal of this workshop is to highlight the current state of the art in continental collaboration in HPC, and the latest developments of regional collaborative activities.

The Americas HPC Collaboration Workshop is co-located with the Latin America High Performance Computing Conference (CARLA) 2021.
