Less than a week remains for student teams to submit their application to enter the SC14 Student Cluster Competition, which showcase student expertise in a friendly yet spirited competition. Held as part of HPC Interconnections, the Student Cluster Competition is designed to introduce the next generation of students to the high-performance computing community.
Teams can participate in either the Standard Track (6 students per team) or the Commodity Cluster Track (5 students).
 

Full-day (six hours) or half-day (three hours) tutorial slots are available for tutorial submissions. The Tutorial Program Committee is looking for tutorials with broad applicability and of interest to the HPC community and the SC14 attendees. 

The Technical Papers Program at SC is the leading venue for presenting the highest quality original research, from the foundations of HPC to its emerging frontiers. The SC Papers Committee is soliciting submissions that introduce new ideas to the field and stimulate future trends in eight areas: Algorithms; Applications; Architectures and Networks; Clouds and Distributed Computing; Data Analytics, Visualization and Storage; Performance; Programming Systems; and, System Software.

For the duration of the SC13 conference, SCinet measured all of the data traffic flowing in and out of the Denver convention center to and from destinations around the world! SC attendees and exhibitors produced this traffic through state-of-the-art demos highlighting HPC advances in climate research, earthquake simulation, high energy physics, etc. Each year, SCinet gives the conference the ability to perform these demos with the fastest network services available.

Each year exhibitors plan large scale demos that connect the convention center to remote HPC resources around the world. In order to support these often ground breaking demos each year, the conference builds SCinet - a highly sophisticated, very high-capacity network. Last year, SCinet boasted nearly 1 Terabit of capacity.

The ACM/IEEE-CS George Michael Memorial HPC Fellowship honors exceptional PhD students throughout the world whose research focus is on high-performance computing applications, networking, storage, or large-scale data analysis using the most powerful computers that are currently available. The award committee is selected by the two societies and includes past winners as well as leaders in the field.

Where will you hang your hat at SC14? You can make your hotel reservations on the SC14 hotel reservation site from March 1 until October. Reserve now for a full choice of rooms and hotels. All SC14 hotels are located within walking distance of the convention center or near the SC14 bus route along Canal Street.
