ISC High Performance 2027

ISC High Performance 2027 is Europe's leading high-performance computing, AI and quantum computing conference, returning to Hamburg, Germany during the week of 7-11 June 2027 under the theme 'Connecting the Dots'. Rio Yokota serves as Program Chair with Amanda Randles as Deputy Program Chair. The week pairs a peer-reviewed technical programme — Research Papers, Research Posters, Project Posters, Women in HPC Posters, Birds of a Feather sessions, tutorials and workshops — with three daily keynotes and a large vendor exhibition. Its standing topic areas are System Architecture & Hardware, Programming Environments & System Software, Algorithms & Performance, Applications & Use Cases, Machine Learning & AI, Quantum Computing, and Community & HPC. Regional 'HPC Around the World' sessions cover Europe, Africa/Latin America/Middle East and Asia-Pacific, and the Student Cluster Competition runs alongside the main programme. The preceding Hamburg edition drew more than 3,500 attendees from academia, government and industry.

ISC is where the people who actually procure and operate large GPU and accelerator estates compare notes before a buying cycle, which makes it unusually concrete for a CIO or head of AI infrastructure. The Machine Learning & AI and System Architecture & Hardware topic areas show what the next generation of accelerators, interconnects and schedulers will do to a data centre plan, while the Vendor Showdown and HPC Solutions Forum put integrators, cloud providers and silicon vendors on record in front of a technical audience that will challenge them. The regional 'HPC Around the World' sessions are the fastest way to benchmark internal capacity plans against national-lab and hyperscaler roadmaps, and the Walking Talks turn the exhibition into a guided evaluation rather than a badge-scanning exercise.

• ✓Three daily keynotes covering HPC, AI and IT
• ✓Research Paper track plus Research, Project and Women in HPC poster sessions
• ✓Machine Learning & AI standing topic area
• ✓Quantum Computing standing topic area
• ✓Hands-on Tutorials and expert-led Workshops
• ✓Birds of a Feather sessions and Community Stage Meetups
• ✓'HPC Around the World' regional sessions — Europe, Africa/Latin America/Middle East, Asia-Pacific
• ✓Vendor Roadmaps, Vendor Showdown, HPC Solutions Forum and First-Time Exhibitor Pitch
• ✓Student Cluster Competition and Student Volunteer Program
• ✓Walking Talks — guided exhibition tours led by technical experts

• ★Europe's counterpart to SC, and the main European setting where national labs, hyperscalers and silicon vendors present accelerator, interconnect and system roadmaps to the same technical audience
• ★A genuinely peer-reviewed technical programme (Research Papers, Research and Project Posters) rather than a sponsor-selected agenda
• ★Machine Learning & AI and Quantum Computing are standing topic areas alongside classical HPC, so AI infrastructure is assessed against the same performance and procurement criteria as supercomputing
• ★The exhibition is structured for buyers — Vendor Roadmaps, Vendor Showdown, HPC Solutions Forum and expert-guided 'Walking Talks' — instead of leaving attendees to an unstructured floor crawl
