Conference: Practice and Experience in Advanced Research Computing (PEARC23)

高级研究计算实践和经验(PERC)会议系列旨在提供一个论坛，供来自美国和世界各地的HPC中心主任和经理、计算科学家、最终用户、学生、促进者、教育工作者、HPC系统管理员和用户支持人员以及行业和政府机构代表讨论挑战、机遇和解决方案。PEARC23会议是在美国国家科学基金会支持的极端科学和工程发现环境(XSEDE)十年会议系列会议成功举行之后举行的。会议将于2023年7月23日至27日在波特兰举行。这是一个资助学生参加会议的项目，特别是在学生项目活动中。一些学生将在会议上提交论文和海报，计算机和经济弱势群体中代表性不足的学生将被专门招募参加。正如NSF的使命所述，该项目符合国家利益，促进科学进步，因为它提供了一个论坛，以传播研究成果，联系研究人员，并培训下一代学者。会议的学生项目委员会正在招收学生，重点是多样性和包容性的代表不足的群体和不同的机构设置。作为学生计划的一部分，学生将参加(1)迎新和欢迎环节，(2)让参加过实习的学生分享他们的经验的学生启蒙谈话环节，(3)学生导师计划，将学生与资深导师配对，帮助指导学生通过会议活动，(4)学生志愿者计划，帮助运行和组织会议，(5)，参展商问答和网络活动，在那里，学生可以与会议参展商或代表一对一会面。NSF提供的资金将显著影响下一代研究人员在高性能计算领域的职业生涯，同时鼓励该领域的多样性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Practice and Experience in Advanced Research Computing (PEARC) Conference series aim to provide a forum for discussing challenges, opportunities, and solutions among HPC center directors and managers, computational scientists, end users, students, facilitators, educators, HPC system administrators, and user support staff, as well as industry and government agency representatives from across the United States and around the world. The PEARC23 conference follows the successful ten-year NSF-supported Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE) conference series. The conference will be held in Portland, OR from July 23-27, 2023. This is a project to fund students to participate in the conference, especially in the student program activities. Some students will present papers and posters at the conference, and students from underrepresented groups in computing and economically disadvantaged sectors will be specifically recruited to attend. The project serves the national interest, as stated by NSF's mission, to promote the progress of science as it provides a forum to disseminate research efforts, connect researchers, and train the next generation of scholars.The student program committee for the conference is recruiting students with an emphasis on diversity and inclusion of underrepresented groups and from a diverse set of institutions. As part of the student program, students will participate in (1) an orientation and welcome session, (2) a student lightening talk session that enables students who have participated in internships to share their experiences, (3) a student mentor program that pairs a student with a senior mentor to help guide the student through conference activities, (4) a student volunteer program, to help run and organize the conference, (5), an exhibitor Q&A and networking event, where students can meet 1-on-1 with conference exhibitor representatives. The funding provided by NSF will significantly impact the careers of the future generation of researchers in high-performance computing while encouraging diversity in the field.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
