NetLogo Visualizations and Models Library
NetLogo is a programmable modeling environment for simulating natural and social phenomena. It lets students open simulations and "play" with them, exploring their behavior under various conditions.
The following are HPC resources and opportunities
for community engagement in HPC:
The ICLS 2010 conference theme, Learning in the Disciplines, invites you to explore the ways disciplinary perspectives can inform the study of learning in educational settings, workplaces, and other contexts. The event is taking place June 29 - July 2 (preconference June 28 - 29) in Chicago, IL. Special postdoctoral fellowships at Argonne are awarded internationally each year to outstanding doctoral scientists and engineers who are at early points in promising careers. The next deadline is February 8. MuCoCoS 2010 is aiming to bring together researchers, developers, practitioners, and users of multi-core computing systems. The event is scheduled for February 15 The 17th annual Mardi Gras Conference on Computational Materials and Methods covers the current state of the field and future developments, fosters information exchange and enables community building. Takes place Feb. 11-14 The 5th annual TeraGrid Conference, TG'10, will be held August 2-5, 2010, at the Sheraton Station Square in Pittsburgh, PA. Registration opens in March 2010, so be sure to sign up early! PSC is hosting the 11th LCI International Conference on High-Performance Clustered Computing Mar 8-11, 2010 to focus on the impact of multi-core technologies, including heterogeneous approaches using GPGPUs and Cells, on high end computing; and the power consumption and scaling challenges of peta- and exa-scale computing. The 2010 Oil and Gas High Performance Computing Workshop will be held March 4 at Rice University. The main objective is to provide a venue focusing on specific trends, needs and requirements from oil & gas industry users of scientific computing and HPC. The Third International Workshop on Data Intensive Distributed Computing (DIDC'10) will be held in conjunction with the 19th International Symposium on High Performance Distributed Computing (HPDC'10), in Chicago, IL on June 22, 2010. In 2011, a new NSF-funded petascale computing system, Blue Waters, will go online at the University of Illinois. The purpose of this solicitation is to invite research groups to submit requests for allocations of resources on the Blue Waters system. Deadline for submissions is March 17. The Virtual School of Computational Science and Engineering (VSCSE) is pleased to announce and is actively seeking participation in Summer School 2010. The National Resource for Biomedical Supercomputing at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center and Carnegie Mellon University (www.cmu.edu) will host a 'Hands-On' Workshop on Computational Biophysics using NAMD and VMD. Applications are due by March 15, 2010. Registration and Preliminary Program are now available for GlobusWORLD 2010 which will be held March 2-4 at Argonne (near Chicago Illinois, USA). This year's GlobusWORLD conference will focus on Globus success stories, including discussions with Globus users about their experiences, technical presentations, and tutorials on using new (and old) Globus software.
