This week, I am for the third time taking part in the “International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis” to represent Munich Quantum Valley (MQV) and all of its activities at the booth of the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) (#3147).
Last Thursday, 3 October 2024, I took part in the Open Day at Garching.
With over 80 venues and activities to visit and take part in, and thousands of people attending, it was quite an event.
I myself took part in the stand activities of the Munich Quantum Valley (MQV), moderated talks and discussions at the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) and set up another ‘Build Your Own Particle Detector’ (BYOPD) competition as part of the activities of the ORIGINS Cluster of Excellence. Both the MQV stand and the BYOPD activity were well attended and we had quite a number of participants in the BYOPD competition … entries and results soon(ish) to come.
The official website for the Open Day, which I expanded and recoded over the past few weeks, also seems to have done a good job for the 6500 or so unique visitors on that day alone.
A little roadtrip and photo diary from our trip to Portugal in August 2024.
Some more details and captions might follow at some point .. otherwise just ask me ;)
About twenty years ago, in July 2004, I started a little – now long gone – blogspot.com weblog, mainly to document and share my ERASMUS experience in Copenhagen.
You are now looking at what it has become over the years…
This weekend we managed to get beds at the August-Schuster-Haus near Unterammergau, so we did a round trip of about eleven kilometres through the Schleifmühlklamm up to the hut – where we stayed for the night – over the Teufelstättkopf and past Auf dem Stein.
Great tour with some fantastic views including the Zugspitze.
