Hi to all, We had a TELCO on 20170426. Here are brief NoM. - We will provide the credentials for members of SIG to have access to real HPC system. - We hope to meet in a person very, so we can show infra and discuss needs and workflows in HPC domain. - SIG members have been provided with project ID at IT4Innovations and an email describing how to apply for the credentials. - We hope to have another TELCO, date not set yet.
