Discuss with VACC staff how the advanced computational services at UVM, including the unique resources of the 7.1 Teraflop "BlueMoon" High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster, can "supercharge" existing work or add value to an upcoming proposal. The first half of the seminar will be used as a round table to discuss current research needs and the second will be used to develop solutions to common problems. If you cannot make this workshop or another in the CTL series, VACC also supports individual consultations as time permits. Contact Andi Elledge 656-8867 with any questions or email vacc@uvm.edu.
