About the workshop
This workshop aims to bring together women working on High Performance Computing and BioInspired Processing, as well as related areas. The space is designed to improve the visibility of women as role models in this field, whether working in industry or academia, and to catalyze interaction and networking between students, researchers and professionals.
A special invitation is extended to all those interested in participating, especially university students with a particular interest in cloud computing, simulation, bioinformatics, data science, parallel computing, accelerators and machine learning. Walk ins were welcome as the workshop had no participation fee.
