***YSC2021 at a glance

Simulation and systems thinking is one way to explain the complex world in which we live. By collecting big data and building computer models, scientists can make predictions or even preventions on critical situations. The Conference aims to strengthen the ties between young scientists in different countries, thus promoting future collaboration in the framework of Computational Science and major application aspects of big data, high-performance computing, computer modeling, and simulation to tackle a wide range of issues in science, industry, and business.

Additionally, the Conference includes the Intensive Training School, which aims to train participants by means of best practices in data operations, analytics, and building of models.

YSC-2021 invites original contributions on all topics related to High-Performance Computing and Simulation, including, but not limited to:

• Modeling and Simulation of Complex Systems
• Big Data and Data-intensive Applications
• Machine Learning and Cognitive Information Technologies
• Problem Solving Environments
• Parallel and Distributed Computing Architectures and Systems
• Visualization, VR & AR in Computational Science
• High-Performance Data Analytics and Convergence with HPC

Submit your paper now to participate in this international, interdisciplinary, and intercultural event.

***Key conference events
• Sessions to present and discuss the scientific papers of the conference participants
• Guest lectures of the leading scientists
• Intensive training school

*** Intensive training school

The aim of the intensive training school is to give participants practical skills in working with data and building data-driven models using machine learning, as well as introduce modern tools in this area.

SCHOOL UNITS
1) How to store and process big distributed data effectively and correctly?
2) How to build, learn and validate data-driven models quickly?
3) How to detect patterns and anomalies in real-world data?
