SUMMARY:Introduction Scientific Visualisation with Blender: Data\, Lights\, Camera\, Action!
DESCRIPTION:What.\nIn this course\, we introduce Blender from the basics\, starting with the user interface and basic functionality. We cover the 3D scene\, cameras\, lighting and materials\, and some basic mesh editing and animation. It helps to have some familiarity with basic 3D graphics concepts\, such as 3D geometry\, transformations and rendering\, but it will be easy to pick up this knowledge quickly during the course. \nSign up \nOnline\nThis is an online self-study course\, where we will have a number of weekly synchronisation meetings and there will be many suggested exercises guided by the instructors via permanent consultation in a dedicated Discord channel. \nBeing an online self-study course\, the course will start on 4 December at 10:00 am and close on 18 December at 5:00 pm. \nFor specific details about the course\, please visit the visualisation team’s course page at SURF: https://surf-visualization.github.io/blender-course/overview/introducti…

SUMMARY:Accelerated Applications Using HW-SW Co-design
DESCRIPTION:On Dec 6-2023\, SURF organizes\, together with the HW Acceleration Network community\, a HW acceleration workshop focused on application development using a HW-SW co-design approach. This talk is part of the “FIRE: FPGA Innovation Research Exchange“ series of events. \nThe focus of this event is on optimizing applications on heterogeneous CPU-accelerator systems\, addressing system design challenges to achieve full system optimization. We invite speakers from industry and academia to share their thoughts and experiences in using GPU and FPGA accelerated systems for a number of relevant applications domains. \nYou are invited! \nSign up now  \nWhere: SURF Utrecht (Moreelsepark 48\, 3511 EP\, Utrecht)When: December 6\, 2023\, 9.45-17.00Entrance: Free of charge \nThe program of the day: \n09:45 – 10:15: Welcome&Coffee10:15 – 10:30: Introduction and updates10:30 – 12:00: HWACC acceleration session12:00 – 13:00: Lunch13:00 – 14:30: Keynotes session14:30 – 15:00: Coffee break15:00 – 17:00: FIRE talks session
