ANNOUNCEMENTS
High Performance Computational Physics Education Workshop, sponsored by SC08
The June 1st - 7th workshop on Physics and High Performance Computing (HPC),
to be hosted at Kean University, will focus on creating educational
materials to incorporate HPC into the physics classroom. As much of a
WORKshop as a workshop, individuals with a strong background in Physics
education and/or HPC education interested in developing curriculum centered
around real-world HPC examples in the Physics classroom are invited to
attend. Participants should have knowledge of at least one computer language
(C/C++, Java, FORTRAN) and the standard undergraduate Physics curriculum.
Participants will have guaranteed access to Kean's new 1000 core cluster
with allocations dedicated to educational applications of HPC, and will
receive preferential consideration for acceptance to the 2008 SuperComputing
Conference Education program the week of November 15th in Austin, TX..
Please join us as a part of the team that will help expand the existing
curriculum in computational physics education to span the spectrum from the
single CPU to the small cluster to the Petascale!
