The massive volume of complex data collected by next-generation observatories requires innovative theoretical and computational tools to investigate physical phenomena with unprecedented detail.<br>The course is designed to provide young researchers in Astronomy and Astrophysics with <strong>practical skills in programming and code optimization across various computing platforms<\/strong>, including parallel computers, laptops, and modern CPUs. The primary goal is to develop expertise in the effective use of computing resources for numerical modeling and data analysis, with a focus on: code optimization, distributed memory parallelism, shared memory parallelism, and efficient use of computing infrastructures\nThis initiative recognizes the growing importance of a conscious and proficient approach to computing in advancing astronomical research.<br><strong>Organized entirely by INAF-USC-C,<\/strong>, <strong>the course is free of charge and open to approximately 30 participants.<\/strong>. <br>However, participants must independently cover their own travel and accommodation expenses. <br>Should the number of applications exceed the available spots, selection will be based on the candidates' skills and background, with priority given to young researchers and post-docs. <br>Additional editions of the course will be organized in the following months to progressively meet the training needs of INAF personnel.<br><br><strong>Further information and registration are already available <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indico.ict.inaf.it\/event\/3227\/\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><br><br><strong>The registration deadline is July 31, 2025.<\/strong><br><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":1190,"menu_order":0,"template":"full-width-no-titlw","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[9,10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2404","evento","type-evento","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-corsi","category-eventi"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento\/2404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/evento"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1190"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uscc.inaf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
