It consists in presentations of research works on parallel systems, distributed systems, distributed computing, high performance computing and high performance data analytics. Usually, the seminar takes place each week on Friday at 10am at TSP/Palaiseau. The PDS/HPDA seminar consists in three types of presentations:
