PNNL heads to the land of flying fish and coffee for Supercomputing conference
SC11—Connecting Communities through HPC
PNNL is heading to Seattle to showcase the future of high-performance computing (HPC) at Supercomputing 2011 (SC11). As the international conference for high-performance computing, networking, storage and analysis, SC11 will place an emphasis on connecting communities to facilitate the exchange of information, discussion and collaboration related to HPC applications and scientific discovery.
It's PNNL's 23rd year participating in the conference and SC11 promises to be another good show. Demonstrations in the Laboratory's booth will expand upon the conference thrust of Data Intensive Science. In addition, researchers will demonstrate HPC capabilities such as extreme scale modeling and simulation and highlight PNNL's supercomputer, Chinook.
SC11, held November 12-18, is the Mecca of HPC, networking, storage and analysis. Over 10,000 attendees—scientists, engineers, researchers, educators, programmers, system administrators and managers—from around the world will converge in Seattle to learn about the field's latest innovations.
