The PASC18 Conference

Jul 02, 2018, 14:00 until Jul 04, 2018, 14:00, Congress Center, Basel

The Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing (PASC) Conference is an interdisciplinary conference in high performance computing organized by the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) that brings together domain science, applied mathematics and computer science - where computer science is focused on enabling the realization of scientific computation. PASC18, the fifth annual PASC Conference, is co-sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the PASC structuring project. It is held from July 2 to 4, 2018 at the Congress Center Basel in Basel, Switzerland.
