Tutorials

The SC Tutorials program – held this year on Sunday, Nov. 14, and Monday, Nov. 15 - has historically been one of the highlights of the SC Conference, offering attendees a variety of short courses on key topics and technologies relevant to high performance computing, networking, storage, and analytics. Tutorials also provide students the opportunity to interact with recognized leaders in the field and learn about the latest technology trends, theory, and practical techniques.

This year, the SC10 Technical Program Committee has selected 33 half-day and full-day tutorials covering a spectrum of foundation skills, hot topics, and emerging technologies, with material appealing to beginning, intermediate, and advanced HPC professionals.
