SUMMARY:P15 - Fostering the Wider Adoption of High-Performance Computing b
 y UK-Based Arts and Humanities Researchers via National Training and Commu
 nity-Building Initiatives
DESCRIPTION:Eamonn Bell (Durham University) and Karina Rodriguez Echavarri
 a (University of Brighton)\n\nThe integration of computing innovations int
 o Arts and Humanities (A&H) research is crucial. However, high-performance
  computing (HPC) is not widely used in A&H, posing risks to interdisciplin
 ary integration with sciences that use advanced computational methods. Eff
 orts in the UK to address the digital skills gap in A&H are limited. The l
 ack of national digital infrastructures and skills in digital workflows sp
 ecifically hinders HPC adoption. Two initiatives, recently funded by UK Re
 search and Innovation (UKRI) aim to overcome these limitations. The Digita
 l Skills Network in the Arts and Humanities (DISKAH) will build researcher
  capacity to engage with UK Digital Research Infrastructures, including HP
 C and AI resources. It builds on a network of universities scaling up exis
 ting national digital skills training initiatives and fostering new commun
 ities of practice via a UK fellowship programme. The Collaborative Computa
 tional Project for Arts, Humanities, and Culture (CCP-AHC) will establish 
 a community of practice centred on the responsible development of scientif
 ic software codes and workflows that have the potential to transform A&H r
 esearch. Over the next two years, both projects will build capacity, run e
 ngagement events, identify and support promising projects, and promote bes
 t practices, aiming to foster transparency, collaboration, and inclusion i
 n A&H research.\n\nSession Chair: Chris Cantwell (Imperial College London)
