Research seminar – Accelerating computing

2 July 2015
United nations assembly.
Possibly over ambitious seminar size.

Using accelerators such as GPUs and Intel Phi technologies are becoming a popular method to extend the performance of certains codes. ARCCA is holding a research seminar which covers this topic. All are welcome to attend, even if you are not planning to use the technologies its is great to see the cutting-edge research Cardiff is doing!

Programme

Date: Wednesday 8th July
Time: 14:00-15:30
Location: Paul Spencer Lecture Theatre (2.60C), Redwood Building
14:00 – 14:20 “GPUs in Drug Design: from Molecular Dynamics to Haptic-Driven Simulations”
Andrea Brancale, Pharmacy
14:20 – 14:40 “Using GPUs to Find Gravitational Wave Signals”
