KISSKI - Spinnaker 2 Workshop

SpiNNcloud Systems and the GWDG invite you to a workshop on the hardware platform SpiNNaker 2.

When: December 6th (13:00-17:00) and 7th (09:00-12:00), 2023
Where: Computing Center (Rechenzentrum) Göttingen, Burkhardtweg 4, 37077 Göttingen
Registration: https://events.gwdg.de/e/spinnaker-ws-2023

Are you working in the fields of theoretical neuroscience, machine learning, robotics or image and signal processing? Would you like to develop new software and find new ways to apply your research? Then don’t miss this unique opportunity to get involved with SpiNNaker!

The GWDG is pleased to announce the acquisition of a SpiNNaker 2 system, which will be integrated as part of the KISSKI Center for Artificial Intelligence. The new hardware is an ideal platform for brain simulations, but also for machine learning, signal processing and robotics.

Together with the developers of SpiNNaker, SpiNNcloud Systems, you will have the opportunity to get to know the platform, try out the system with a test board and ask questions about the hardware and how you can combine it with your research.

The workshop will take place in the Computing center of the GWDG in Göttingen in a hybrid format, with a limited number of in-person seats. After the workshop we will look into providing further access to testing hardware, until the final installation of a SpiNNaker machine in Göttingen.

SpiNNaker hardware: Million ARM cores, fast, highly integrated, novel architecture
Suited for simulation of neurons/brains, machine learning, robotics, signal processing, complex network behaviors
Workshop: Hands-on learning directly with the developers
