About SC2004

SC2004 is the premier international conference on high performance computing, networking and storage. Founded in 1988, this conference series has grown to now include scientists, researchers, software developers, policy makers, corporate managers, CIOs and IT administrators from universities, industry and government. Attendees become immersed in the latest state-of-the-field developments in technology, applications, vendor products, research results, national policy and national/international initiatives. SC2004 is the one place attendees can see tomorrow’s technology being used to solve world-class challenge problems today.

The SC2004 theme, Bridging Communities, ties the program components together and demonstrates how high performance computing, networking and storage touch all scientific disciplines, promote interdisciplinary projects, affect the educational process through the use of computers in modeling and simulation in the classroom, and solve heretofore unsolvable problems in biotechnology, weather research, astronomy, drug research, wearable sensors and many other applications. These technologies provide new ways to solve existing problems in seismic processing, crash simulation, and many other application areas. SC2004 provides attendees the opportunity to speak with industry and academic research leaders through the technical program, industry exhibits, research exhibits and Birds-of-a-Feather sessions. Conference participants will interact with communities not resident at the Pittsburgh conference site through leading-edge collaboration environments made available by SC Global. New this year will be the StorCloud initiative that incorporates the storage community as an integral element of the conference. As before, the Education Program will bring K-16 teachers and faculty to the conference and provide them the tools and expertise to incorporate modeling and simulation into their classroom.

SC2004 will be the high performance computing and networking event of the year. We look forward to your participation!
