The Regional High-Performance School (ERAD/RS) takes place annually. Its main objectives are to qualify future professionals from southern Brazil in the areas that compose the high-performance processing, provide a regular forum in which recent advances in these areas can be presented, and discuss ways of teaching high-performance processing in universities. ERAD/RS has presentation tracks for undergraduate and graduate papers, mini-courses, and lectures. This year, the event occurred from April 18 to 20 in Curitiba (PR). This ERAD/RS edition was the first in the state of Paraná. You can find more information about it on the official site by clicking here.
In recent years, GMAP has made constant submissions to ERAD/RS. In 2022, there were 9 submissions, one of them together with the Sociedade Educacional Três de Maio (Setrem).
In the Scientific Initiation Forum, there were three presentations by scientific initiation students:
