High Performance Computing (HPC) is Changing the World

This short video is a powerful tool to explain how science and technology are interacting for advacements beyond our imagination, and the concept of HCP. "Powerful Beyond Imagination". The International Conference on High Performance Computing, Networks, Storage, and Analysis will take place on November 15-21, 2008, in Austin, Texas. http://sc08.supercomputing.org/ This is the 20 years celebration of the super computing conference!

These two events may be fun:

• a Music Room, conveniently located in the convention center lobby, where conference attendees can sit and listen to other attendees play during scheduled times throughout the conference. Basic orchestral and woodwind instruments will be available, including a Baby Grand piano, but you are encouraged to bring your own. (A reservation must be made in order to secure a time for you to play in the music room. More about signing up will be provided later).
• Digital Vibrations: Is it Real?, where attendees will visit a kiosk, listen to a series of songs, and identify ones they think are computer generated versus those they think are produced with actual instruments. A prize will be awarded to the person who correctly identifies all songs.
