Georgia Tech researchers are making a strong showing at the Supercomputing Conference (SC24) this week in Atlanta. The annual event, which kicked off yesterday at the Georgia World Congress Center, brings together experts from academia and industry to share ideas, discuss challenges, and build relationships in the field of high-performance computing (HPC). Although Georgia Tech is not officially hosting SC24, the Institute has a significant presence at the conference.
Over 50 Georgia Tech researchers are presenting their work as part of the technical program. This includes a team from the School of CSE that will present a new HPC algorithm on Wednesday, which they expect to have applications in physics, chemistry, materials science, and other fields. Georgia Tech also has a large footprint on the SC24 exhibition floor.
The Institute’s booth (#4415) will feature Shimon, an improvisational marimba-playing robot that will greet conference attendees. Faculty, research scientists, and graduate students from Georgia Tech will be on hand to discuss the Institute’s latest HPC initiatives and achievements.
Georgia Tech shines at SC24
“Georgia Tech has 50 researchers presenting at Supercomputing this year, reflecting our long-time commitment to leadership in high-performance computing,” said John P. Imlay Jr. Dean of Computing.
“I am delighted to welcome HPC researchers from around the globe to Atlanta, and I look forward to our interactions at the conference.”
This year marks the first time that Atlanta has hosted the Supercomputing Conference, which is the leading global event showcasing the latest HPC technologies and applications. The conference features a technical program, workshops, and an exhibition floor where attendees can learn about the newest developments in the field. Georgia Tech researchers are contributing to more than 27 research teams that are part of the SC24 technical program.
The College of Computing has created a website that provides an in-depth look at Georgia Tech’s latest HPC research, a guide to the hottest topics at the conference, and an interactive exploration of Tech’s HPC researchers and collaborators. With its strong presence at SC24, Georgia Tech is showcasing its leadership in the field of high-performance computing and its commitment to advancing the state of the art in this important area of research.
