SUMMARY:Swiss Chapter Women in HPC
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nWHPC is the only international organization w
 orking to improve equity, diversity and inclusion in High Performance Comp
 uting.  The chapter is being formed by senior professionals scientists and
  engineers working in Switzerland, representing academia, large research c
 entre, national HPC Centre and the IT industry. The mission of WHPC is to 
 "promote, build and leverage a diverse and inclusive HPC workforce by enab
 ling and energising those in the HPC community to increase the participati
 on of women and highlight their contribution to the success of supercomput
 ing. To ensure that women are treated fairly and have equal opportunities 
 to succeed in their chosen HPC career". The minisymposium will be comprise
 d of 1 short intro, 3 talks followed by a panel discussion with all the sp
 eakers and organizers on actions, existing programmes and emerging proposa
 ls to enable more diversity and inclusivity.\n\nTowards a Modular Supercom
 puting Architecture for Exascale\n\nSuarez\n\nTo reach Exascale compute pe
 rformances at an affordable budget and energy requires increasingly hetero
 geneous HPC systems, which combine general purpose processing units (CPUs)
  with acceleration devices (e.g. graphic cards (GPUs) or many-core process
 ors). The Modular Supercomputing Architecture deve...\n\n-----------------

 --------------\nLarge Scale Brain Simulations with Arbor\n\nAbi Akar\n\nAr
 bor is a performance portable library for simulations of large networks of
  morphologically detailed neurons on HPC systems. Thanks to backend-specif
 ic optimizations and low memory overheads, Arbor's performance is an order
  of magnitude faster than the most popular comparable simulation libraries

 obal Organization\n\nSawley\n\nIn this talk, we will share the essential g
 oals and first planned activities of the group recently created in Switzer
 land about "Women in HPC". We are planning 2 major talks delivered by webi
 nar by international women leaders of the domain in 2021. The blog will be
  open in May 2021 to start dissemin...\n\n\nDomain: CS and Math, Emerging
