Since the trial operation of HPC Phase IV Domestic Cluster began on February 6, over 300 users have applied for trial use, and more than 40,000 Slurm and AI jobs have been completed. This demonstrates the strong enthusiasm of our researchers for domestic computing power. To further address pain points in model deployment, model migration, and HPC application migration, and to improve development skills and research efficiency, the Information Technology and Data Intelligence Department (ITDID), the HKUST(GZ) Kunpeng&Ascend Center of Cultivation, and the Party Branch of the Information Hub Faculty and Staff are jointly organizing the "HPC Phase IV: Kunpeng Ascend Development Training Series – Special Training Camp of Kunpeng&Ascend Center of Cultivation".
