We are excited to announce Torsten Hoefler as the program chair for ISC 2025. Hoefler is a Professor of Computer Science at ETH Zurich and leader of the Scalable Parallel Computing Lab at the university. He is widely recognized for his expertise in combining artificial intelligence with high performance computing and is currently serving as the Chief Architect for Machine Learning at the Swiss National Supercomputing Center.
In just six days, the eagerly anticipated ISC 2024 event for the global high performance computing (HPC) community will take place. Approximately 3,000 attendees from academic, research, and business sectors are expected to attend from May 12 to 16 to showcase their research and technological advancements, and discuss how the industry can collectively reinvent HPC.
In the fast-paced world of High Performance Computing (HPC), where breakthroughs in technology often dominate headlines, it’s crucial not to lose sight of the people who drive innovation forward—the diverse and dynamic community that forms the backbone of this field. In a recent interview conducted by Cristin Merritt, CMO of Alces Flight, with Nages Sieslack, the Head of Communications for ISC Group, the spotlight was on ISC’s unwavering commitment to diversity, inclusion, and collaboration.
