Keynote
IK02 - High-Performance Simulation of Matter and Materials
Presenter
Elisa Molinari is Professor of Physics at Unimore and CNR-Nano in Modena, Italy, and Director of the MaX European Centre of Excellence on “Materials Design at the Exascale” (https://max-centre.eu). Her main research interests are in theoretical and computational condensed matter science. She has been particularly active in the theory of fundamental properties of low-dimensional structures, in the simulation of advanced nano-bio systems and devices, and in the advancement of related computational methods. She has led or participated in scientific boards within the European HPC ecosystem including the EuroHPC JU and major international scientific institutions.

Description
Materials research and discovery through high-performance simulation is boosting key advances in understanding fundamental phenomena of matter and designing sustainable technologies of the future throughout all application fields: from energy harvesting and storage to manufacturing, to the whole landscape of information technologies. The fast rise of data driven research increasingly leverages some major advancements of first principles codes combined with the evolution of HPC architectures and ecosystem. I will discuss some success cases and current challenges of this field from the perspective of the MaX European Centre of Excellence and its open-source community codes, workflows and platforms (https://max-centre.eu/software).
