MAX codes: webinars, links, facts and figures

This decade opens with great perspectives for High Performance Computing (HPC), with new architectures allowing sustainable supercomputers working at exascale and beyond. With the opportunities that this scenario offers, computational science also faces new challenges on simulations and data.

The MAX Centre of Excellence, one of the leaders in the field of materials research, is taking up the challenge in redesigning its flagship codes and the data ecosystem in order to take advantage of the new architectures, which are often heterogeneous, and of the new computation and data capabilities.

This webinar series was organized in 2020 by MAX to update its users on the novelties introduced in the flagship codes (Quantum ESPRESSO, SIESTA, Yambo, FLEUR, CP2K, BigDFT, AiiDA) which are being ported on these new conceptually different HPC systems.

In this booklet, the successful campaign of 7 webinars is gathered, with a useful collection of the main training materials, contacts and services that MAX offers to its users.
