Upcoming event. Insight into digital simulation at the Ter@tec Forum on 15 and 16 June at the École Polytechnique

The Ter@tec Forum bringing together leading international experts in digital design and simulation is one of biggest events of its kind in France and Europe. It underpins the sector’s importance in developing a company’s competitiveness and innovation capabilities, as was clearly demonstrated by the 2009 event, which attracted more than 600 attendees. The 2010 Ter@tec Forum at the École Polytechnique will focus on the very fast development of HPC usage.

During the plenary sessions on Tuesday, 15 June, industry players will share their experiences of HPC technologies, which today extend to all economic, industrial and service sectors as a result of more powerful systems (1,000 times more powerful in a matter of years) and the performance of software tools in simulation and design as well as in the complete digital creation of objects and materials, media or services.
Workshops will be held throughout the day on 16 June to address major HPC topics and provide an opportunity for delegates to review the numerous collaborative projects linking industry and research.
