Texas A&M University High Performance Research Computing is hosting a two day series of talks and three days of workshops on May 13-17, 2019 to showcase the A&M community’s work in computing and data-intensive research. Topics covered will include:
- Applications of High Performance Computing to solve real-world problems
- Exascale computing at the frontiers of science
- Cloud computing for scientific research
- Novel hardware and software for advanced computing
Keynote talks will be given by Irene Qualters, Associate Laboratory Director, Simulation & Computation, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Dr. Erwin Gianchandani, NSF Deputy Assistant Director for Computer and Information Science and Engineering. In addition to local and national speakers, training workshops will be offered on computational tools for research. A reception and poster session is planned for late Wednesday afternoon.
In addition to talks by leading national and local computational scientists, some very exciting workshops on these and other topics are scheduled:
- Getting up to speed on the Google Cloud Platform
- Advanced use of the Abaqus Finite Element modeling and simulation package
- Classical and Quantum Mechanics modeling of chemical and biological systems
- Using the IBM PowerAI and PowerAI Vision packages for developing deep learning applications
- Long-Read Sequencing Technologies and Sequence Analysis
- Computing with the R statistics package; and Web access to HPRC supercomputers
A Reception and Poster/Demonstration Session are planned for late Wednesday afternoon. Please plan to attend!
Kick-starting Bring-Your-Own-Data (BYOD) Workshop
The Texas A&M Institute of Data Science (TAMIDS), Texas A&M High Performance Research Computing (HPRC), and Texas Engineering Experiment Station invite you to join our Bring-Your-Own-Data (BYOD) workshop! The primary goal of this workshop is to help Aggie researchers take advantage of the latest data analytics technologies and Texas A&M high performance computing facilities to speed up various data science projects. This is a FREE service offered to all researchers at Texas A&M.
Time: February 12 – April 30, 2019 Tuesdays.
Location: 235-I Wisenbaker Engineering Building, 188 Bizzell St, College Station, Texas 77843
Please note that this is NOT a training session, but more in forms of a code development working meeting focusing exclusively on your project with a goal to overcome techinical hurdles you may have to move forward with your data science projects. Given the limited time and resources available to offer this workshop, you must be prepared with a determined mind to create substantial progress. We can only work on the software applications that you write and plan to maintain yourself or the applications that are built on top of an open source platform.
You are advised to bring your own laptop, but it is not required as long as you provide means to share your data with us at the workshop. Please feel free to contact the organizers if you have any questions or comments.
