The CLSU Supercomputing Facility (CLSU-SCF) headed by Dr. Amore A. San Juan organized a seminar for the students, faculty and staff to disseminate the importance and advantages of High-Performance Computing (HPC) held at the CLSU ICT Research and Development Training Center (CLIRDEC) Building on April 23, 2024. With the theme, "Unleashing the Power: An introduction to high-performance computing (HPC) and its diverse application," Dr. Ravelina R. Velasco, VP for Academic Affairs graced the hybrid event and expressed her appreciation to the almost 200 faculty and students on-site, via Zoom and livestreaming via Facebook for showing their support and interest to this initiative. Dr. San Juan discussed the history and fundamental principles of High-Performance Computing (HPC) and emphasized the significance of HPC as a tool for optimizing computational performance and maximizing efficiency in data-intensive processes. On the other hand, Engr. Jacky John Felix from the Agricultural Mechanization Division of the Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (PHilMech), provided a detailed discussion about computer simulation using the Finite Element Method for structural design and the Discrete Element Method for particles. Attendees also had the opportunity to delve into the vast potential of HPC, engage in discussions on its applications and career prospects, as well as explore the use of computer simulations in areas such as development and agriculture. The SCF is under the College of Science (COS) which provides services for open and free sharing of HPC computing resources in CLSU and may be reached via email scf@clsu.edu.ph or its official Facebook Page - CLSU Supercomputing Facility.
