8th Marenostrum Hackathon (MNHack26)

Together with NVIDIA and the OpenACC organization, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center will host the 8th Marenostrum Hackathon, a hybrid Open Hackathon starting 15 September 2026 and concluding 30 September 2026. These hackathons are multi-day, hands-on coding events that help computational scientists and researchers port, accelerate, and optimize their own real-world applications on data center architectures. Participants are paired with dedicated, expert mentors and work together to tackle computational bottlenecks, optimize HPC and AI workloads, and realise performance gains and speedups using a variety of programming models, libraries, and tools.This hackathon is open to everyone looking to take their projects to the next level; however, priority acceptance will be given to Barcelona Supercomputing Center affiliated scientists and their collaborators.
