The HPC Consortium is a Sun customer forum which meets biannually to research and discuss high-end scientific and engineering computing issues and trends. Each meeting gives participants the opportunity to present talks and have discussions with their peers, and hear and provide feedback on Sun's engineering plans.
Attendance is by invitation only, and availability is limited.
Attendees are chosen to represent a broad range of computing applications and environments. Attendance at the meetings is not restricted to Sun Education customers. The next HPC Consortium meeting is being held in Denver, CO, on Nov. 10th and 11th, just prior to the IEEE Supercomputing 2001 conference. We will have presentations from experts, customers, and Sun engineers. The GRID-SIG Grids are currently experiencing exponential growth in the academic world and will soon hit the commercial world as the infrastructure for communicating, collaborating, and computing.
