DescriptionThe EduHPC Workshop is devoted to the development and assessment of educational resources for undergraduate education in High Performance Computing (HPC) and Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC). Both PDC and HPC now permeate the world of computing to a degree that makes it imperative for even entry-level computer professionals to incorporate these computing modalities into their computing kitbags, no matter what aspect of computing they work on. This workshop focuses on the state-of-the-art in HPC and PDC education, by means of both contributed and invited papers from academia, industry, and other educational and research institutions. Topics of interest include all topics pertaining to the teaching of PDC and HPC within Computer Science and Engineering, Computational Science, and Domain Science and Engineering curricula. The emphasis of the workshop is undergraduate education, but fundamental issues related to graduate education are also welcome. The target audience will broadly include SC16 attendees from academia and industry, including both researchers and educators, as well as the early adopters of NSF/TCPP curriculum on PDC (http://www.cs.gsu.edu/~tcpp/curriculum/index.php). The workshop is coordinated by the CDER Center for PDC Education and highlights the NSF/TCPP curriculum initiative. EduHPC-13 was the first education-related regular workshop held at SC and had excellent participation, but was focused on curriculum design. EduHPC-14 and EduHPC-15 shifted their emphasis to sharing resources for undergraduate education and were very successful.
This workshop will produce a refereed proceedings that will be available through the ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore (free of charge during and immediately after SC, and free after that to SIGHPC members).
