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

9979307米勒此美洲计划奖将支持八名高级研究人员和一名初级教员的差旅费和相关费用，参加美国-委内瑞拉高性能计算（HPC）联合研讨会。 组织者是麦迪逊的威斯康星州大学的巴顿P.米勒博士和委内瑞拉加拉加斯的西蒙玻利瓦尔大学的卡洛斯菲盖拉博士。 本次研讨会的主题领域探讨了提供高水平计算和数据访问的问题，无论是在技术上还是在经济上，这都是未来几十年的关键问题。研讨会的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讨论。 分布式（地理上分散的）计算领域使得HPC特别适合国际协作。该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.***
