Curious about an easier way to access scientific software? Join NRIS and MultiXscale (a EuroHPC JU Center of Excellence) for an in-person introduction to the European Environment for Scientific Software Installations (EESSI) at the University of Bergen. During this workshop, you will explore how EESSI (pronounced “easy”) offers a common stack of scientific software installations for HPC systems and beyond, including laptops, personal workstations, and cloud infrastructure. The workshop includes both an introductory lecture and hands-on exercises, giving you practical experience with finding, loading, and running software provided by the EESSI stack.
