Supercomputing 2023

Building on the success of our participation at last year's event, UCL is again organizing a group to represent the university's HPC communities at Supercomputing 23 (SC23)

SC23, denver, i am hpc

Do you want to connect with industry leaders and discover cutting edge technologies in the world of High Performance Computing (HPC)? Do you use HPC facilities to further your research and want to share your findings with a global audience? Are you helping to build the future of supercomputing?

Held between 12 - 17 November 2023 in Denver, Colorado, USA; SuperComputing 23 (SC23) is the international conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis. The theme this year is: "I am HPC" - celebrating the diverse community of global educators, scientists, technologists and engineers behind HPC. This is an opportunity for UCL to get involved in breaking barriers, fostering inclusivity, and championing equity in the world of high-performance computing. Along with all that the conference brings, we will be running an exhibit stand to showcase a range of projects from across UCL;  it will provide us with a hub for UCL attendees to facilitate networking, discussions and meetings.  The stand will be led by UCL Advanced Research Computing Centre (UCL ARC) in collaboration with colleagues from across UCL.

We will be sharing updates and insights during and after the conference.

Interested?  There are many ways that you can get involved:

  • Apply to attend SC23 on behalf of UCL. This includes contributing to developing content for showcase, supporting the booth during the conference e.g. giving demonstrations, presentations and developing outputs afterwards. Please only apply if you are willing to participate widely as part of UCL's team. Priority will be given to those with:
    • projects included in the showcase,
    • colleagues who support digital research (e.g. research software engineering, research computing, research data, Research IT)
    • early career researchers who are interested in pursuing a career as a research technology professional  
  • Not going to be there in person? Submit your project to be considered for the showcase. We will curate a list of projects for the showcase. You will work with us to prepare posters, software demos or other video presentation of your project and share your story with the UCL delegation. 
     
  • Attending SC23 (self-funded)? Share how you are contributing to SC23. We would like to raise the profile of how you, and UCL collectively, is contributing across SC23 whether you are attending in-person or virtually e.g. workshops, tutorials, talks, etc.

For all opportunities, please complete the application by Wedneday 30th  August, 12 noon.  To reflect the diversity within the university's HPC communities, we particularly welcome female applicants and those from an ethnic minority.

The UCL ARC Senior Leadership Team and Prof Allison Littlejohn (Chair of the Digital Research Board) will review the applications. If you have questions, please contact Donna Swann donna.swann@ucl.ac.uk.
