Quloud - PIMD Seminar
【Summary】
Material simulation using first-principles electronic structure calculation software "PIMD"
We are pleased to announce the Quloud Seminar (3rd Edition), co-hosted with the Research Organization for Information Science and Technology (RIST).
This seminar will focus on the newly introduced PIMD features in Quloud Version 3.0, released on November 1st.
PIMD was developed under the project of the Program for Promoting Researchers on the Supercomputer "Fugaku" and is an open-source software with various functionalities. It includes machine learning molecular dynamics/self-learning hybrid Monte Carlo methods, and has a track record of use in the "Fugaku" system.
In this session, we will delve into the details of these features with presentations from the developers, Dr. Motoyuki Shiga and Dr. Yuki Nagai from Japan Atomic Energy Agency.
Additionally, we are honored to have Ms. Kanako Yoshizawa from RIST as a guest lecturer, who will provide insights into the supercomputer "Fugaku."
Following the seminar, join us for a demonstration of our cloud-based material computation platform, "Quloud," led by our developer Junichi Iwata. Experience live material calculations using PIMD and gain insights into Quloud's capabilities.
This event offers a unique opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge directly from the developers and experts. You will have the chance to experience the new features of Quloud and explore the performance of the computational engine. We welcome any questions or inquiries during the seminar.
The progress time is an estimate and is subject to change.
