Meet Us at SCA/HPC Asia 2026 in Osaka
29 Jan. 2026
The Information Technology Center of the University of Tokyo participated in SCA/HPC Asia 2026, an international conference on high-performance computing, held at the Osaka International Convention Center from Monday, January 26 to Thursday, January 29.
According to the organizers, the conference was attended by 2,555 participants from 45 countries.
The Information Technology Center of the University of Tokyo hosted a booth under the names of the Center and JHPCN (Joint Usage/Research Center for Interdisciplinary Large‑scale Information Infrastructures). In addition, researchers from the Center delivered various workshops, invited talks, and poster presentations.
We would like to thank everyone who visited our booth and exchanged information with us.
