On Friday March 1st, we look forward to welcoming you to celebrate the first 10 years of the Master's Program in High Performance Computing at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste.

An afternoon dedicated to MHPC Success Stories, both from students and partners, and featuring Prof. Dr. Thomas C. Schulthess, who will give a Lectio Magistralis. The title is "Alps: A research infrastructure for science with extreme-scale data and computing needs": in his presentation, Schulthess will explore how the "Alps" infrastructure achieves this remarkable blend of performance and flexibility, showcasing its role in advancing computational science. He will also discuss the emerging opportunities presented to computational science by AI-designed processors.

The event will conclude with a discussion panel titled "Training next generations of HPC experts", and an aperitif to celebrate. Speakers involved in the discussion panel are:
- Prof. Dr. Thomas C. Schulthess
- Dr. Sandro Scandolo (ICTP)
