[Crib-list] Harvard SEAS ComputeFest 2013 Opens for Registration

[Shirley Entzminger]

Dear CRIBB Colleagues,

Harvard SEAS ComputeFest 2013, now in its 3rd year and bigger than ever before, 
has opened registration.  We'd like to invite you to look at our 9 days of free 
events, running from Tuesday Jan 15 to Friday Jan 25 in the two weeks 
immediately before the Spring Semester begins.

For the visually inclined, an "event-by-way-of-logos" image is below.

Sessions are being led by experts from within Harvard (SEAS, IQSS, FAS-RC), and 
outside (Mathworks, Amazon, PSC, UCSD, TACC).  There is also a student 
computational challenge and three symposia, the headline event being 
"Computing at Exascle" on Friday Jan 25 that will feature world experts on high 
performance computing and computational science.

Registration is only required for the Tuesday-Friday Jan 15-18 workshops, and 
there is no cost for any events.  Preference will be given to any member of the 
Harvard community, however individuals from outside of Harvard are also 
welcome.  Workshops will cover Amazon AWS, Matlab, R, Python, Unix, MPI, 
Visualization, and HPC.

Hope to see you in January!

Ian Stokes-Rees, PhD
SEAS Lecturer in Applied Computation
