It's not just about * women * in HPC ... it's the diversity of these women, we need more passionate and eager women to do science. People will not join STEM Workforce until they can see how exciting this world is.
AIMS & SCOPE
The use and development of High Performance Computing in Latin America is steadily growing. New challenges come from the capabilities provided by clusters, grids, and distributed systems for HPC, promoting research and innovation in this area. Building on the great success of the previous nine editions, this year the Latin American Conference on High Performance Computing (CARLA 2018) will be held in Bucaramanga – Colombia, from September 26th to 28th. The main goal of CARLA 2018 is to provide a regional forum fostering the growth of the HPC community in Latin America through the exchange and dissemination of new ideas, techniques, and research in HPC. The conference will feature invited talks from academy and industry, short- and full-paper sessions presenting both mature work and new ideas in research and industrial applications.
#CARLA2018 participants love the technology and the HPC world. Don't forget to attend "The Panel of Women in Technology and HPC" in Latin American Women in HPC Workshop.
