2015 International High Performance Computing (HPC) Summer School

国际高性能计算（HPC）暑期学校将于2015年6月21日至26日在加拿大多伦多大学举行。HPC暑期学校的目标是：a)扩展与会者对高性能计算（HPC）及其在多个科学和工程领域应用的知识；B)鼓励参与者继续追求有助于推进科学发现的高级研究和职业生涯；c)在演讲者和与会者之间培养新的大学友谊、伙伴关系和合作（国内和国际）。这个暑期学校将为来自加拿大、欧洲、日本和美国的约80名研究生和博士后研究人员提供一个独特的机会，让他们向来自多个学科的顶尖计算科学家学习和交流。与会者将与来自多个学科的科学家讨论他们利用高性能计算推进研究的挑战和机遇。参与者将参与实践活动，以熟悉HPC工具，他们可能会使用这些工具来改进自己的研究实践。学生将参加为期五天的大小小组讨论，以解决推进高性能计算研究中的挑战。与会者将从演讲者和HPC专业人士中获得导师，并将有许多机会与导师进行非正式讨论。暑期学校旨在为学员提供独特的体验，帮助他们成为高效、有贡献的国际研发团队成员。

An International High-Performance Computing (HPC) Summer School will be held at the University of Toronto in Toronto, Canada on June 21-26, 2015. The goals of HPC Summer School are to: a) expand the knowledge of the attendees about high performance computing (HPC) and its applications in multiple fields of science and engineering; b) encourage the participants to continue to pursue advanced studies and professional careers that contribute to advancing scientific discovery; and c) foster new collegial friendships, partnerships, and collaborations (nationally and internationally) among the presenters and attendees. This Summer School will provide a unique opportunity for about 80 graduate students and postdoctoral researchers from Canada, Europe, Japan, and the United States to learn from and to engage with leading computational scientists from numerous disciplines. The participants will talk with scientists from multiple disciplines about the challenges and opportunities their have pursued utilizing HPC to advance their research. The participants will be engaged in hands-on activities to become familiar with HPC tools they may use to improve their own research practices. The students will participate in five days of large and small group discussions to address the challenges in advancing HPC research. The participants will be assigned mentors from among the presenters and HPC professionals, and they will be provided with numerous opportunities for informal discussions with mentors. The Summer School is designed to offer a unique experience for preparing the attendees to be effective, contributing members of international research and development teams.
