The big HPC show is upon us. As a seasoned veteran, I thought I would provide some insights into the Supercomputing trade show experience — perhaps one of the coolest trade shows on the planet. First, let’s clear up one thing. While the show is called Supercomputing by many people, it is officially called “SC.” You will be hard pressed to find the word supercomputing on the SC09 web site. At one point in the past Supercomputing went away and was replaced by SC. I don’t know why. It seems to be one of those things that just happened.
If you are not attending SC, then stay tuned for my reports. I will be trying to twitter my way through the show. This is an experiment because normally I don‚Äôt post all that much. For the most part, I find the whole thing a little weird…
