What's New At SC97
The Latest Developments. SC97 will demonstrate the latest developments in high performance communications and computing technology and its application to solving the most complex and important scientific problems facing the world. Be a part of this year's conference!
The Opportunity to Present More Timely Results. To allow for the presentation of more timely results, we are soliciting technical papers through extended abstracts. Authors of accepted papers must submit full final papers for inclusion in the conference proceedings. The top 5-10 papers will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
A New Type of Technical Track: Survey Talks. Invited speakers will be asked to describe the current state of work in their field, propose questions, and pose problems that specialists in other areas might be able to solve that would advance their work. The target audience for each speaker will be technical experts in areas outside that of the speaker, with the explicit goal of conveying ideas, results, and needs at a level they can understand and appreciate.
An Innovative New Computing Challenge. The SC97 High Performance Computing Challenge will be a race to solve a known hard cryptographic problem at the conference using the networking and computing resources available on the exhibit floor and through the SCinet97 Internet connection.
Enhanced awards for the SC97 Best Paper and Best Student Paper. Awards have been given in the past for the Best Paper and Best Student Paper, in addition to Best Papers within various categories. At SC97, the Best Paper overall will receive a $1,000 award and the Best Student Paper will receive $500. Announcements about Best Papers awards will be made at SC97 in conjunction with the announcement of the Fernbach Award.
A Prime Location--Silicon Valley. Never before has SCXY met in Silicon Valley, home to more than 3,600 high-technology companies employing more than 208,000 people--many of whom will participate in SC97. The Santa Clara Valley, known as Silicon Valley, has become a dominant force in the development of electronics, semiconductor devices, computer systems, and software. The area is a magnet for the best and the brightest researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs--and now it has attracted SC97!
IOPADS 97--Input/Output in Parallel and Distributed Systems. IOPADS 97 will be co-located at SC97 on Monday November 17, 1997. IOPADS brings together researchers in all aspects of parallel and distributed I/O, architecture, algorithms, applications, file and operating systems, and compilers and runtime systems. IOPADS gathers interested researchers from all areas of computer science, encouraging cross-disciplinary interaction. See http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/iopads

SCinet97
The networking component of the annual SCXY conference increases in importance and complexity each year. SCinet, the on-site network designed and built especially for these conferences, vividly demonstrates the role that high performance networking and computing technology have played and will continue to play in the development of what we commonly refer to as the information superhighway.
At SC'95 SCinet demonstrated the technical feasibility and benefits of a high performance computing environment using serial HiPPI, FDDI, switched and shared Ethernet, and ATM. This activity was augmented by an experimental, high performance network called IWAY, based on ATM technology, linking dozens of the country's fastest computers and advanced visualization environments. It provided a testbed where large-scale simulations and interactive visualization projects could be developed and demonstrated.
SCinet 96 build on networking activities of previous conferences, providing many opportunities for attendees to participate and view communications technology "at work" on many platforms and applications. The infrastructure was a fully integrated network, including the following components:
SC97 will take place in San Jose, the hub of the Silicon Valley, with access to many high-speed networks. SCinet97 will offer both a stable, state-of-the-art infrastructure for the conference with a high-speed Internet connection and additional high-speed connections for experiments in applications benefiting from very high bandwidth communications. As in prior years, we are organizing a team of researchers, exhibitors, communications carriers, and networking equipment suppliers along with volunteers from universities, government, and industry to assemble and operate SCinet97.
Specific details describing opportunities will be made available at http://www.supercomp.org/sc97/scinet/. Potential collaborators should review this material frequently to stay abreast of new opportunities for participation as 1997 progresses.
