It consists of presentations of research work in parallel systems, distributed systems, distributed computing, high-performance computing, and high-performance data analytics. Usually, the seminar takes place every Friday at 10 a.m. at TSP/Palaiseau. The PDS seminar consists of three types of presentations:
If you want to receive announcements about upcoming seminars, please send an email to Gaël Thomas or François Trahay.
For master’s students, attending some of the seminars is mandatory. The mandatory seminars have the icon. You can download a calendar that only contains the mandatory seminars here, or a calendar with all the seminars that indicates which ones are mandatory here.
