Supercomputing Conference 2014 Broader Engagement Technical Session Poster Submission Workshop

摘要超级计算（SC），即高性能计算、网络、存储和分析国际会议，是由计算机协会和IEEE计算机学会于1988年创立的年度盛会。2012年，大约有一万人参加了会议。会议吸引了来自世界各地的计算机和计算科学领域的学生和专业人士，其中大部分参与者来自美国。该会议已在美国多个地点举行，最近一次于2013年在科罗拉多州丹佛市举行。在过去的13年里，SC系列会议委员会已经接触到在美国传统上在SC主要领域中代表性不足的人（非洲裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人、印第安人、妇女和残疾人），最初是通过少数民族服务机构，然后是少数民族外展，并从2007年开始进行更广泛的参与（BE）计划。BE计划在向广大受众介绍高性能计算和相关技术方面取得了成功的记录。该计划最近的重点是在更广泛的参与计划和SC主要技术轨道之间建立一个更强大的桥梁，从而加强SC的承诺，通过促进他们充分参与SC会议系列的主要轨道，推进他们的专业准备，并提供在主要会议上展示研究的重要经验，从而接触到代表性不足的群体。本次研讨会将为过去的BE参与者提供向技术方案海报环节提交的培训，使他们能够更多地参与会议的主要技术轨道。鼓励以往“更广泛参与”项目的参与者提交参加本次为期两天的研讨会的提案。讲习班将包括培训和讨论如何组织研究成果、可用的SC资源以及如何成功提交海报，从而成功展示海报。讲习班还将包括工作会议，与会者将在其中编写提交的草案并收到对其提交的意见的反馈。每位参与者将带着一份海报草稿离开研讨会，该草稿可以最终确定，然后通过SC14海报提交申请提交。

AbstractSupercomputing (SC), the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis is an annual event established in 1988 by the Association for Computing Machinery and the IEEE Computer Society. In 2012, approximately 10,000 people participated in the conference. The conference attracts students and professionals from computer and computational science fields from throughout the world with a large concentration of participants from the United States. The conference has been located in a variety of U.S. locations most recently in 2013 in Denver, Colorado.Over the past 13 years, the SC conference series committee has reached out to people in the U.S. who have been traditionally under-represented in the main tracks of SC (African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, women, and people with disabilities), initially through the Minority Serving Institution, then the Minority Outreach and since 2007 the Broader Engagement (BE) programs. The BE program has enjoyed a successful track record at introducing High Performance Computing and related technologies to a wide audience. The program's recent focus has been to build a stronger bridge between the broader engagement program and the SC main technical track, thus strengthening the SC commitment to reaching out to underrepresented groups by promoting their full participation in main tracks of the SC conference series, advancing their professional preparation, and providing important experiences presenting research at a major conference.This workshop will enable past BE participants to become more involved with the main technical track of the conference by providing training for their submission to the technical program poster session. Past Broader Engagement participants will be encouraged to submit proposals for participation in this two-day workshop. The workshop will include training and discussion on how to organize research results, on available SC resources and on successful poster submission and, consequently, a successful poster presentation. The workshop will also include working sessions in which participants will prepare draft submissions and receive feedback on their submissions. Each participant will be expected to leave the workshop with a draft poster submission that can be finalized and then submitted through the SC14 Poster Submissions application.
