There are a number of programs offered in conjunction with the SC11 conference taking place November 12-18 at Seattle’s Washington State Convention and Trade Center.

Extended grants and sponsorships will be provided by the Communities Program, including travel and housing, as well as discounted technical program registrations for participants within the Broader Engagement (BE), Education and Student Volunteer Programs.

“The SC Communities Program champions leadership and creates lifelong collaborations that are the cornerstone to our community’s longevity and success,” says Communities Program Chair Satoshi Matsuoka. “Our initiatives nurture the individual through programs that are aligned with the critical interactions, education, expertise and skills needed within the HPC community now and into the future.”

Designed to connect a diverse pool of talent with the supercomputing community and enrich the educational experience, the BE Program will host a Mentor/Protege program, the Student Job Fair, and offer a limited number of sponsored tutorial registrations. The International Ambassadors program will help new attendees become immersed in the conference and community activities. The Student Volunteer Program will host 200 students this year who will provide hands-on support for various conference elements and take part in the technical program. 

Geared primarily toward undergraduate and secondary-level educators, this year’s Education Program and curriculum will provide introductory workshops on HPC and Computational and Data Enabled Science and Engineering (CDESE) techniques and technologies including hands-on system time through the “LittleFe project,” SC’s first multiple node mini-cluster whose primary focus is on turnkey classroom demonstrations and exercises.

Submission deadlines for the Education Program are ongoing through July 31. The Student Volunteers and BE applications are due no later than August 12 and 14, respectively.  For more information, please visit the SC11 communities site.
