 PRINCETON OPEN HACKATHON ] (hybrid event) 

Together with NVIDIA and OpenACC organization, Princeton University will host an Open Hackathon starting June 4, 2024 and concluding June 14, 2024. 

Open Hackathons are multi-day, intensive hands-on events designed to help computational scientists and researchers port, accelerate and optimize their applications on a variety of modern data center architectures including CPUs and GPUs. The event pairs participants with dedicated mentors experienced in programming and targeted application areas to realize performance gains and speed-ups using a variety of programming models, libraries, and tools. 

Participating teams should leave the event either with their applications accelerated and/or optimized on the latest supercomputing hardware or with a clear roadmap of the next steps needed to leverage these resources. 

This hackathon is open to everyone looking to take their projects to the next level. Priority is given to Princeton researchers and their collaborators. Check out the [ https://www.openhackathons.org/s/siteevent/a0C5e000008dWhxEAE/se000286 | event
 website ] for more information.
