NEW ORLEANS, April 12, 2017 — PEARC17 organizers today announced 20 full-day and half-day tutorials for attendees at the Practice & Experience in Advanced Research Computing 2017 conference, July 9-13, in New Orleans.
All tutorials will be held Monday, July 10. Of two full-day tutorials, one focuses on enabling and advancing on-campus research computing and the other on manycore programming. Half-day tutorials are scheduled on topics ranging from using science gateways, cloud computing, virtual clusters, programming, and managing scientific data to visualization, data sharing, and building data portals.
When registering for tutorials day, registrants will be asked to select the tutorials they are likely to attend. While attendees may ultimately choose to attend different tutorials on site, tutorials selected by fewer than five attendees during the registration period may be cancelled.
Anyone interested in advanced research computing challenges is encouraged to review the schedule and register soon.
