Update from Brendan Mort:

Dr. Carlos Sosa will be visiting the University of Rochester from IBM on November 19th to give a general HPC talk, a Blue Gene presentation, and a Blue Gene workshop. The HPC talk will take place in the Gowen Room in Wilson Commons from 10-11 a.m., and the Blue Gene presentation will be in Goergen 108 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The workshop will be held from 1-3 p.m.

The Blue Gene workshop will demonstrate how to build and run software on the Blue Gene architecture using the DOCK6 molecular docking application as an example. Attendees of the workshop should be comfortable with a command line interface and have some experience developing or building Linux applications (e.g. working with compilers, Makefiles, etc.).

Because there is limited space available in the computer lab, please let us know by Wednesday, November 17th, if you are interested in attending the workshop. There is no need to RSVP for the two presentations.

Contact Brendan at brendan.mort@rochester.edu to sign up for the workshop.
