Numerical Algorithms Group - Out and About

We regularly organize and participate in conferences, seminars and training days with our customers and partners. If you would like to talk to us about hosting a NAG seminar at your organization or any training requirements you might have email us at info@nag.co.uk

Forthcoming Events:

 
• HPCFinance Conference and Training Event
  13-17 May 2013 - Tampere, Finland.
  NAG is a partner of the HPCFinance initiative and as such is delighted to be part of their next conference and training event being held at The University of Tampere in Finance. The event will look in detail at the solving of computationally intensive financial problems on the latest high performance computing platforms. The event promises to be a great place for networking among business leaders, academics and HPC experts.
  
  NAG’s Jacques Du Toit and John Holden will be presenting at the event along with a very impressive line-up of speakers from business and academia, including NAG collaborator, Professor Uwe Naumann of RWTH Aachen.

• HPCS2013
  2 June 2013. University of Ottawa, Canada.
  The High Performance Computing Symposium (HPCS) is Canada’s foremost supercomputing conference – a multidisciplinary conference where computational researchers from all disciplines in industry and academia, computer scientists, and vendors exchange new tools, techniques and interesting results in and for HPC computational research. NAG’s Craig Lucas, Senior Technical Consultant will be giving training at the Tutorials part of the event. Craig will present Introduction to Parallel I/O: This tutorial will introduce MPI-IO, which allows a program to read and write to a single file from multiple processes. It will also cover the parallel I/O libraries NetCDF and HDF5, which are built on top of MPI-IO.

• International Cramér Symposium on Insurance Mathematics
  11-14 June 2013. Stockholm University, Stockholm.
  The symposium is organized by the Department of Mathematics (Institute of Insurance Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics) at Stockholm University in cooperation with the Scandinavian Actuarial Journal. Participation in the symposium is open to researchers, students, practitioners in business and industry and other specialists from all countries. David Humphris of NAG is exhibiting, and presenting a paper on Numerical Software and tools for the Actuarial community.
   
• International Supercomputer Conference.
  16-20 June 2013. Leipzig.
  The ISC’13 exhibition is the international HPC marketplace, showcasing a comprehensive range of systems and services from world’s leading vendors and research organizations. NAG are regular exhibitors at this event, and look forward to be present again this year.
   
• International Conference on Preconditioning Techniques for Scientific and Industrial Applications
  19-21 June 2013, Oxford
  The International Conference on Preconditioning Techniques for Scientific and Industrial Applications, Preconditioning 2013, is the eighth in a series of conferences that focus on preconditioning techniques in sparse matrix computation. NAG are delighted to be supporting this event, and will be exhibiting on the 19th June.
   
• QuantInvest
  24-25 June 2013. Chicago.
  NAG staff will be present at QuantInvest Chicago and will be hosting The NAG Clinic for those seeking a “Cure for the Common Code”.
   
• Numerical Analysis Conference
  25-28 June 2013, University of Strathclyde.
  NAG staff will be present at this Numerical Analysis event that comprises a number of invited speakers and minisymposia sessions.
   
• International Congress on Insurance: Mathematics and Economics
  1-3 July 2013, Copenhagen.
  The International Congress on Insurance Mathematics and Economics (IME) is one of the major international conferences in actuarial science. The congress is associated with the leading actuarial science journal, Insurance: Mathematics and Economics. The journal editors and most of the researchers in actuarial science will attend and give talks during the congress. NAG is pleased to be supporting this event, and David Humphris of NAG will be present at our exhibition booth.
   
• Behavioural Models & Sentiment Analysis Applied to Finance Conference
  2-3 July 2013, Fitch 7 City Learning, London.
  Sentiment analysis has developed as a technology that applies machine learning and makes a rapid assessment of the sentiments expressed in news releases. News events impact market sentiment and financial news moves stock prices through a direct impact on a company’s expected future cash flows. This conference presents the current state of the art. It also explains how to apply Sentiment Analysis to the respective models of trading, fund management and risk control. The conference will present in a summary form the research results in this fast-emerging field. NAG are exhibiting at this event, please do visit us at the NAG booth if you are attending.
   
• Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management (APRM) Bootcamp-SYMMYS
  12-17 August 2013. New York.
  NAG staff will be present at APRM Bootcamp in August. The bootcamp provides intensive, heavily quantitative training sessions.
   

• HECToR (High End Computing Terascale Resource) Training Courses
  Presented by the NAG HECToR Team
  A full list of forthcoming HECToR Training Courses can be viewed on the official HECToR website here.
