随着对需要大数据处理的任务的兴趣越来越大,对具有高性能计算(HPC)技能的大学毕业生的需求正在迅速增加。医学、地球科学和数据分析等学科的主要需求推动了对高性能计算人才的需求。本文介绍了一个新的计算机科学未成年人的高性能计算(HPC)和全州范围内的竞争,提供了一个结构化的环境,为毕业生的发展所需的技能进入HPC劳动力。HPC未成年人旨在为本科科学和工程专业的学生提供HPC基础知识,以便在研究生院进行高级HPC学习或进入HPC劳动力市场。未成年人可用于广泛的学科,最低限度的额外所需的课程,以尽量减少成本。HPC群集竞赛为高中生、本科生和研究生提供了一个结构化的环境,以获得HPC经验并激发他们对该领域的兴趣。
The need for college graduates with high-performance computing (HPC) skills is rapidly increasing with the greater interest in tasks requiring big data processing. Major needs in medicine, geosciences, and data analytics, among other disciplines, drive demand for an HPC literate workforce. This paper presents a new Computer Science minor for high-performance computing (HPC) and a state-wide competition that provide a structured environment for development of graduates with the skills needed to enter the HPC workforce. The HPC minor is designed to provide undergraduate science and engineering students with a foundation in HPC basics to pursue advanced HPC study in graduate school or enter the HPC workforce. The minor is available to a wide range of disciplines with a minimum of additional required coursework to minimize cost. The HPC cluster competition provides a structured environment for high-school, undergraduate, and graduate students to gain experience in HPC and to spark their interest in the field.
