The next EMiT (Emerging Tech) conference will be EMiT2019 at The University of Huddersfield on 9-11 April 2019 it will include a day long training session on exciting emerging topics such as Quantum Computing and Machine Learning and then a packed 2 day programme of invited and submitted talks. Please email us at info@emit.tech if you are interested in presenting, have recommended key note speakers, would like to run a training workshop (or have suggestions) or would like to sponsor the event.
Details of how to submit an abstract for presentation, or how to just attend EMiT2019 will be coming soon to this website, so please keep calling back.
The University of Huddersfield has a vibrant history in supporting new technologies and their uptake in industry, located in the historic West Yorkshire area of England in the United Kingdom, EMiT2019 will be held in one of its new buildings and hosted by the High Performance Computing Research Group from the School of Computing and Engineering. The 2019 event promises to be even bigger than the last main EMiT event at Barcelona Supercomputing Centre, we are excited to provide a platform for the current state of the art in computing and the organising committee looks forward to meeting you there!

EMiT Introduction
Computational hardware is changing rapidly. Two decades ago, all we needed to know was the speed of upcoming hardware, not its form or the state of its software frameworks. This is no longer true with new and novel highly parallel computing architectures being unveiled continuously. This forces important questions about re-coding and future proofing existing scientific software. Emerging Tech describes this continual change of hardware and algorithms, and EMiT – through international conferences, workshops and community fora – is here to help everybody make optimal use of these.
Unique aims and scope
The EMiT (EMerging Technology) conference series brings together experts from all areas of computing to examine how to best take advantage of the changing landscape of computer hardware and overcome research barriers for fields such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), computational mechanics, life sciences, and financial modelling. Building on the successes of EMiT@CIUK 2017, EMiT2016, EMiT2015 and EMiT2014, the next EMiT will continue to provide a platform for the cutting edge in computing technologies as well as broaden its international reach.
EMiT has the following objectives
- to identify latest trends in hardware development for novel computing;
- to share how best to exploit Emerging Tech for application;
- to focus on new techniques, their development and transfer to new areas.
With device-independent compilers and high-level languages, to low power and energy efficient computing being applied to ever changing hardware and numerical algorithms for industrial and academic use, EMiT brings all they key organisations and developers together.
