Abstract:

BayernKI is the central infrastructure for the State of Bavaria to advance academic AI research. It provides cutting-edge AI systems, comprehensive user support, and user training. The infrastructure is jointly operated at the Erlangen National High Performance Computing Center (NHR@FAU) and the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre in Garching (LRZ) in sustainable and energy efficient environments.

The HPC Café will present the current implementation of BayernKI, its available services, and its organizational structure. We will also provide an introduction to application and access procedures. Finally, we will discuss potential future developments of BayernKI.
