Dr. Ing. Bernd Mohr Selected as one of HPCwire’s 2015 “People to Watch”

Dr. Ing. Bernd Mohr, SC17 General Chair, has been named one of the “People to Watch” in High Performance Computing (HPC) for 2015 by HPCwire, an online news portal that covers supercomputing. Each year, HPCwire recognizes a small group of individuals that are the best and brightest minds in HPC whose hard work, dedication, and contributions reach far beyond HPC and shape the direction that technology is taking us.

Nominations now being accepted for the Test of Time Award

The Test of Time Award (ToTA) recognizes an outstanding paper that has deeply influenced the HPC discipline. It is a mark of historical impact and recognition that the paper has changed HPC trends. The award is also an incentive for researchers and students to send their best work to the SC conference and a tool to understand why and how results last in the HPC discipline. This year, ToTA is accepting nominations from the community.

Nominations due: March 31, 2015
