Joint U.S.-Venezuelan Workshop on High Performance Computing; January 3-7, 2000, Puerto La Cruz, Anzoategui, Venezuela

9979307Miller本美洲计划奖将资助八名高级研究人员和一名初级教员参加美国-委内瑞拉高性能计算(HPC)联合研讨会的旅费和相关费用。组织者是威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的巴顿·P·米勒博士和委内瑞拉加拉加斯西蒙·玻利瓦尔大学的卡洛斯·菲格拉博士。这次研讨会的主题领域探讨了提供高水平的计算和数据访问的问题，无论是在技术上还是在经济上，都是未来几十年的关键问题。研讨会参与者代表了分布式超级计算、高吞吐量计算、按需计算、数据密集型计算和协作计算领域的领导者，所有这些都将在研讨会中涵盖。分布式(地理上分散的)计算领域使HPC特别适合于国际协作。研讨会将扩大美国研究人员可获得的HPC问题和结果的领域，并将为两国教师、研究生和博士后的交流和访问奠定基础。

9979307MillerThis Americas Program award will support travel and related expenses for eight senior researchers and one junior faculty member, to participate in a joint US-Venezuela Workshop on High Performance Computing (HPC). Organizers are Dr. Barton P. Miller, University of Wisconsin, Madison, and Dr. Carlos Figueira, Universidad Simon Bolivar, Caracas, Venezuela. The topic area of this workshop, which explores the issues of delivering high levels of computing and data access, is a crucial one for coming decades, both technologically and economically. Workshop participants represent leaders in the areas of distributed supercomputing, high throughput computing, on-demand computing, data-intensive computing, and collaborative computing, all of which will be covered in the workshop. The area of distributed (geographically dispersed) computing makes HPC especially well suited for international collaborations. The workshop will expand the domain of HPC problems and results available to the US researchers, and will lay the foundation for exchange and visits for faculty, graduate students and postdocs, from both countries.***
