SUMMARY:Team Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Student Cluster Competition\n\nTeam Phoenix\n\nKavukuntla, Hur
 st, Hester, Sliwinski, Li...\n\nThe members of Team Phoenix are Jack Hurst
 , Tracey Li, Braden Hester, Patrick Sliwinski, Samuel Henderson, and Adity
 a Kaushik. Our team is brought together by a shared interest in high-perfo
 rmance computing, and we hope to develop our experience and involvement in
  HPC through this competition.\n\nAll of us are part of a Vertically Integ
 rated Project (VIP) HPC class, which is designed to train SCC teams, teach
  students about HPC fundamentals, and give them awareness of the industry.
  From this class, we learn about various HPC topics, such as schedulers, t
 he Linpack benchmark, and some examples of building and running applicatio
 ns. \n\nOur members have varied experience across academic coursework and 
 industry. Collectively, we study five concentrations in computer science w
 hich are offered by Georgia Tech’s College of Computing: devices, informat
 ion internetworks, theory, systems and architecture, and artificial intell
 igence. Through our coursework, we have learned about algorithms, computer
  architecture, operating systems and other computer science fundamentals. 
 We have also gained industry experience through internships. Jack and Brad
 en have worked on front- and back-end web development, and Aditya has work
 ed with databases, networking protocols, and cloud technologies.\n\nPatric
 k and Samuel are interested in HPC because they are involved in fields whe
 re HPC is applied to run simulations and model complex problems. Patrick i
 s a member of the Yellow Jacket Space Program at Georgia Tech, where he wo
 rks on embedded software for the flight computer and sensor boards. Patric
 k’s interest in HPC comes from the flight dynamics simulations used to pla
 n flight trajectories by the Yellow Jacket Space Program. Before computer 
 science, Samuel studied mechanical engineering. One reason he is intereste
 d in HPC is its applications in fluid dynamics and thermodynamics. Aditya 
 is a TA for the systems and networks class, where students are given an ex
 posure to computing systems and networking, including software abstraction
 s for utilizing compute resources. Aditya is enjoying the HPC VIP class be
 cause many of the operating systems concepts that he has learned about thr
 ough coursework and readings – such as scheduling and distributed systems 
 – get put into full use in an HPC environment. Braden’s interest in HPC st
 ems from a desire to understand how we can use computers to their fullest 
 potential. He has experience participating in team-based academic competit
 ions, such as Lockheed Martin’s CodeQuest programming competition and the 
 GHSA State Math competition. Tracey’s interest in math drew her to HPC and
  this competition, and she is looking forward to being exposed to the tech
 niques used in HPC to solve problems. Jack was previously a computer engin
 eering student, so he has a background in hardware. He is an instructor fo
 r the 3D printing tech area at Georgia Tech’s Electrical and Computer Engi
 neering makerspace. By participating in this competition, he hopes to gain
  more experience in linux, scripting, and parallel programming. \n\nSahit,
  our advisor, is a graduate student at Georgia Tech. He has worked for Nvi
 dia in software security, competed in Nvidia’s GPU Hackathon, and is curre
 ntly competing in ISC22, making him a wonderful resource as our team advis
 or.\n\nRegistration Category: Tech Program Reg Pass, Exhibits Reg Pass
