May 22 — XSEDE15 is proud to announce the conference—to be held July 26-30 in St. Louis—will now include a day-long visualization showcase. This will allow attendees to view the visualizations at their convenience, while still giving the presenters an opportunity to interact with attendees during the reception. The deadline for submissions is May 31.
The visualization showcase is a forum to feature innovative and compelling research that utilizes visualization. Submissions must include a video (up to 5 minutes) and a document (up to two pages) describing the research, visualization techniques, role of visualization in supporting or advancing scientific inquiry, and brief information about the underlying data and hardware resources. When appropriate, submissions should also include any challenges that were overcome during the visualization process.
The submissions are not limited to XSEDE projects or resources, and may be featured by the NSF in the organization’s spotlight on visualizations via the social media hashtag campaign #BeautyOfComputing taking place on various platforms June through August.

All XSEDE15 attendees are encouraged to stay in town for the awards banquet at the conclusion of the conference, which will take place during and after lunch concludes at approximately 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 30. Please consider this important end-of-conference opportunity when making travel arrangements.
