Aimed at bringing together researchers from across the DiRAC user community, this workshop will feature presentations from expert practitioners alongside focused group discussions. These sessions will explore shared challenges and techniques in areas such as:

• Algorithms
• Use of accelerators
• Code sustainability, openness, and reproducibility

A key objective is to identify and nurture groups of researchers from different projects who share common interests or face similar issues, encourage the exchange of experience and expertise, and build sustainable, inclusive research communities for the future.
