Challenges & Competitions

There are multiple opportunities for students to participate in High Performance Computing challenges and competitions.

2011 Student Cluster Competition -- SC11 will again feature the Student Cluster Competition as an opportunity to showcase student expertise in a friendly yet spirited competition. The competition will feature small teams that compete to harness the incredible power of current-generation cluster hardware. In a real-time challenge, teams of six undergraduate and/or high school students will build a small cluster of their own design on the SC exhibit floor and race to demonstrate the greatest sustained performance across a series of applications. The submission deadline is April 15, 2011.
