DALLAS—Everything’s bigger in Texas, even the computers.
As site of the 2022 International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis, or SC22, November 13–18, Dallas will host some of the world’s biggest and best technologies and the people who create and use them. Indiana University’s talented tech experts and researchers will be displaying their innovative work right alongside them.
Visit booth #3617 to learn more about IU’s research and development in high performance computing, data, AI, and networking projects.
Since 1998, IU has had a booth at the annual event, which attracts thousands of global attendees for technical presentations, papers, workshops, tutorials, posters, and Birds of a Feather sessions as well as the world’s leading manufacturers, research organizations, and universities.
Visit booth #3617 to learn more about the university’s research and development in high performance computing, data, artificial intelligence, and networking projects. The booth will also feature a special giveaway: a collector’s “safe space” pin commemorating IU Bloomington’s recent recognition as one of the best LGBTQ+ friendly campuses.
Visit the booth to learn more about IU’s high performance computing initiatives, including:
- Jetstream2. This tool adds cloud-based, on-demand computing and data analysis resources to the national cyberinfrastructure.
- NSF’s Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Coordination Ecosystem: Services & Support, or ACCESS, program. IU plays a leadership role in new awards to support research in a wide range of fields from human health and genomics to weather patterns and ocean currents.
- Midwest Research Computing and Data Consortium (MW-RCD). The NSF has awarded Indiana University $1 million to lead the MW-RCD, a Midwestern hub of research computing and data infrastructure professionals.
- N-Wave and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Since 2010, the Global Network Operations Center at IU has provided expert, 24/7 support for N-Wave, NOAA’s science network. GlobalNOC also provides NOC services for the JEUNO network, which exchanges weather satellite data between NOAA and Europe.
- The AI Institute for Intelligent Cyberinfrastructure with Computational Learning in the Environment (ICICLE). Three researchers from IU’s Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering will help ICICLE investigate ways in which AI can enhance the cyberinfrastructure that underpins national- and campus-level research infrastructure.
- The Luddy School’s research into GPU compression and advanced graphics intelligence for processing mega-scale graphs.
On a fun note, IU and Purdue University students are joining forces on the Purdue–IU Student Cluster Competition team, INpack.
Sharing, leading, and competing at SC22
Several IU staff members will be presenting and sharing their expertise as part of SC22’s technical program, while some have leadership roles.
Brenna Meade, network engineer with IU’s International Networks, is the Women in IT Networking at SC (WINS) team chair and WAN Transport team chair, both for the conference’s advanced network known as SCinet. Her colleague, Hans Addleman, network architect for IU’s International Networks, is deputy chair of SCinet, taking over as chair in SC23.
On the technical program side, Le Mai Weakley, a senior technical lead for IU’s research applications and artificial intelligence division, is serving as Journal Special Issue chair for the reproducibility initiative. Abhinav Thota, manager of the research applications and artificial intelligence division, is chair of the Reproducibility Challenge. Scott Michael, director of the research software and solutions division, is finance liaison for Students@SC.
On a fun note, IU and Purdue University students are joining forces on the Purdue–IU Student Cluster Competition team, INpack. The Student Cluster Competition gives students the chance to design and build small clusters, learn scientific applications, and compete in a non-stop, 48-hour challenge to flex their HPC knowledge for conference attendees and judges. Go, Hoosiers and Boilermakers!
