Upcoming Underworld Retreat (18 - 21st February 2008)

In the tradition of scientific & programming 'retreats' held by Monash Cluster Computing and VPAC, we are happy to announce the next event of this type will be an Underworld retreat - suggestions for snappy names welcome. As usual we will be inviting several international guests, primarily those collaborating in CIG from the United States. For more details...^?

VPAC Summer Internships - AuScope participation: December - February 2008

The VPAC Summer Internship program is designed to allow VPAC's member universities and collaborators to explore and prototype new applications/models, especially those requiring High Performance Computing (HPC). For the students, it provides those with an interest in applied computer science and related fields such as mathematical modelling to learn from VPAC's experienced staff, and gain practical skills on real projects.

This year, there will be two AuScope related projects in VPAC's Summer Internship program. One project, supervised by John Spencer, will be to improve the multi-project collaboration systems used for AuScope, such as Trac. The other will be a project to model re-cycling of the lithosphere and the geochemical evolution that is part of this process, to be supervised by Luke Hodkinson.
