AI Workshops
NWO-I DCC is committed to advancing knowledge and skills in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). As AI technologies continue to evolve, it is crucial to stay updated with the latest tools and practices. Our AI workshops aim to provide hands-on experience and practical understanding of various AI tools and their applications, with a strong focus on security, privacy, and ethical considerations.
Upcoming AI Workshops
NWO-I DCC currently offers two AI workshops:

Green coding
NWO-I DCC supports ethically responsible science. With promoting the broad dissemination of research software and code also comes the responsibility to consider the environmental impact of the usage of software and code. We therefore support green coding, the optimization of software and code for energy efficiency rather than performance or memory usage.
- We organized a mini-symposium to introduce green coding to NWO-I employees and others. Link to slides and notes: https://hackmd.io/@nwo-i-dcc/green-coding/
- We published six recommendations on green coding in ERCIM News, based on the mini-symposium. Read the article here: https://ercim-news.ercim.eu/en131/special/green-coding-reduce-your-carbon-footprint
- We collaborated with SURF and the Netherlands eScience Center to organise a masterclass on energy efficient computing on high performance clusters (HPCs). This course explored the basics behind energy-efficient computing and some advanced concepts like large-scale application analysis, characterisation and data centre energy footprint calculation. This masterclass took place on June 15 and 16 2023.
- The Green Software Foundation is a great resource for green coding, such as an online tutorial and a catalog for green software patterns (example code for the application of green coding principles).
