European Centres of Excellence showcase female talent and leadership in HPC at the upcoming HiPEAC conference
Together with other European Centres of Excellence, MaX will organise two special workshops at the 2025 edition of the HiPEAC conference, which will be held in Barcelona from 20 to 22 January.
At the upcoming HiPEAC25 (High Performance and Embedded Architecture and Compilation) conference, the European Centres of Excellence (CoEs) will host two special workshops to delve into the world of HPC while appraising the contributions of women experts in the field. Funded by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU), the CoEs are initiatives committed to developing and optimizing advanced application codes in light of the upcoming exascale transition to tackle critical scientific and societal challenges. Part of their mission is also to build a more inclusive community in HPC by showcasing the expertise of women specialists and professionals from marginalized communities. The workshops will gather experts from a variety of projects, with representatives from all the CoEs and relevant Euro-HPC initiatives. The speakers will present on a range of topics, such as computer architecture, programming models, compilers, and operating systems. Explore below the two workshops organized by the CoEs:

Driving diversity and excellence in HPC
After two decades of connecting and inspiring the HPC community, HiPEAC returns to Barcelona for its 20th edition. As the premier European forum bridging industry and academia in computing systems, HiPEAC gathers professionals from industry, research, and policy to promote R&D in computer architecture and computing systems in Europe. The initiative proposed by the European CoEs addresses ongoing gender disparities in HPC, where women remain underrepresented, particularly as keynote speakers at conferences. By normalizing women’s voices in the field, the CoEs aim to inspire and empower the next generation of women in STEM.
Further information about the HiPEAC25 conference is available on the HiPEAC website.
