FREE Special workshops include Deep Learning by NVIDIA and MATLAB by MathWorks. The OAK conference and the HPC Security Workshops are open to all levels of participants (faculty, researchers, HPC/IT admins, students, and industry). Topics include: * High Performance and High Throughput Computing (HPC/HTC); * Cybersecurity; * Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML); * Data Analytics and Data Visualization; * Internet of Things (IoT). Slots for podium talks and poster presentations are available (see the websites for more details). The conference and workshops are FREE, but registrations are required (separately for the OAK Conference and HPC Security Workshop). The events will be held in-person on Wichita State University campus to promote interaction and collaboration (see conference website for lodging information). Most sessions will also be available via Zoom for those who can’t attend in person. Limited funding is available to support travel -- APPLY NOW! Participants from emerging/smaller institutions and under-represented groups are specially encouraged to apply. Please share this announcement broadly with anyone how may be interested. Organizing Committee, 4th HPC Security Workshop and 3rd OAK Supercomputing Conference --- 4th High-Performance Computing Security Workshop Background: Executive Order 13702 established the National Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI) to maximize the benefits of high-performance computing (HPC) for economic competitiveness and scientific discovery. Security is an essential component of HPC. NIST HPC Security Working Group (WG) has been leading the effort to create a comprehensive and reliable security guidance for HPC systems. The workshop aims to listen to community’s needs and feedbacks, report and reflect on the ongoing activities at HPC Security WG, and define and discuss future directions with stakeholders from industry, academia, and government. Who Should Attend: The conference is open to participants from higher-education, government, and industry. Attendance is anticipated from many of the major national labs, research centers and HPC centers from across the nation. The event will provide a unique opportunity to interact with many of the leading and emerging players in the community. Encouraged to participate: The program committee specially encourages participants from emerging and smaller institutions to attend. There is travel support available. Funding: Funds are available for providing travel support to selected participants. Please indicate your interest in funding at the time of registration. Women and under-represented groups are encouraged to attend. Workshop Fee: FREE, registration is required. Dates: May 20-21, 2024 Location: Wichita State University (Virtual attendance is available for some sessions) Organizing Committee: Ryan Doll (Wichita State University) Pratul Agarwal (Oklahoma State University) Terrance Figy (Wichita State University) Henry Neeman (University of Oklahoma) Thank you to NSF and NIST. --- 3rd OAK Supercomputing Conference, May 20-23 2024 Welcome to the 3rd OAK Supercomputing Conference!
