Starting from February 22nd, 2024, GWDG offers its own ChatGPT service, which runs on in-house hardware. All users with an AcademicCloud account can access the website and chat with a generative AI to support their work. The service is currently [...]
The GWDG offers data scientists various services and training courses to support them in their work throughout their entire workflow. As the success of a machine learning project often depends on the available computing resources, the working group “Computing” operates [...]
As part of the BMBF founded project FORESTCARE we have developed SynForest, an application that generates high-quality point cloud datasets of synthetic forests. For this purpose, we aimed to produce realistic patterns by combining forest growth simulation tools such [...]
The GWDG Academy course program for the first half of 2024 has now been published. It contains a large number of new courses, especially in the field of Scientific Computing and High-Performance Computing. All courses take place either in a [...]
SpiNNcloud Systems and the GWDG invite you to a workshop on the hardware platform SpiNNaker 2. Are you working in the fields of theoretical neuroscience, machine learning, robotics or image and signal processing? Would you like to develop new software [...]
The world of artificial intelligence (AI) is a dynamic field that is constantly advancing into new areas of our being and expanding the boundaries of what is possible. This technology, which was the subject of science fiction stories in its [...]
Several German universities, including the University of Göttingen / GWDG, are jointly organizing the IT Security Awareness Days for the sixth time from November 7 – November 17, 2023 as a cross-university public online event series with exciting presentations on [...]
There are many python packages that are tightly integrated with Dask which enables parallel data processing. For instance, consider xarray package. This package is used to read datasets in netcdf, hdf5, zarr file formats. Dask comes in play when data [...]
When it comes to our High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems, efficiency is the name of the game. But are you managing your Python environments efficiently?
Our HPC systems use network file systems that are optimized to access a small number of [...]
The GWDG strives to make the use of its diverse services as accessible as possible. For this purpose, we already published a guideline for accessible IT in 2020, which we follow. We have now set up a barriers reporting point, [...]
Most researchers at the University of Göttingen and the Max Planck Society are familiar with the GWDG as a long-standing IT provider. However, the GWDG also provides high-performance computing (HPC) resources to researchers at the University and the MPS. With [...]
The Göttingen eResearch Alliance (eRA) started a survey to assess the visibility of the eRA and its services at the Göttingen Campus. Please participate in this survey to contribute to the development of research data management support at the Göttingen [...]
