2023-Workshop: UM-Bridge

A two-day online workshop on UM-Bridge, a language-agnostic interface linking Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) packages and numerical model software is planned to take place online on the 11th and 12th December 2023.

The workshop would enable

  • Speeding up UQ projects from prototype to HPC
  • Making UQ and model software available to a wide audience
  • Reproducible, community-driven UQ benchmarking

It furthermore has the following goals:

  • Get users familiar with UM-Bridge
  • Initiate collaborations between UQ and model experts
  • Advance the UQ software ecosystem

Registration is available until 1st of December. You find registration form and further details on UM-Bridge and workshop at:
