Supercomputing Workshops and Symposia

College Student & Faculty Outreach

Supercomputing in Plain English Workshop

Supercomputing in Plain English Workshops target science and engineering students and researchers who have modest computing experience, as well as people who are sophisticated about computing. 


Supercomputing in Plain English: What the Heck is Supercomputing?

Workshops are taught through analogy, storytelling and play; modest computer background is assumed and jargon is minimized.

Prerequisite: 1 semester of Fortran, C, C++ or Java
