SUMMARY:DeepNeuron
DESCRIPTION:Student Cluster Competition\n\nDeepNeuron\n\nMichnowicz, Ward,
  Swann, Chung, Hong...\n\nThe Monash HPC SCC team is part of a larger team
  of undergraduate students called DeepNeuron (https://www.deepneuron.org/)
 . DeepNeuron is a student team focused on improving the world with Artific
 ial Intelligence and High-Performance Computing.  \n\nComputational backgr
 ound \nMany students in the team are undertaking Computer Science or Engin
 eering as their degree, learning subjects such as data structures, algorit
 hms and programming languages such as C, C++, Python. On top of that, with
  the assistance of Monash eResearch (https://www.monash.edu/researchinfras
 tructure/eresearch, which maintains two local HPC clusters), the Monash St
 udent Cluster Competition(SCC) team goes through practical and theoretical
  training sessions on HPC topics, which include: \nCloud Technologies (Ope
 nStack on our local Nectar system)\nCompilers (gcc, icc)\nContainer techno
 logy (Singularity, Docker)\nWorking on local High Performance Computer Clu
 sters \nParallel Programming (MPI, openMP) \n\nNon-computational science d
 omain \nMonash University gives students the opportunity to undertake doub
 le degrees which allows the team to have a more diverse background in fiel
 ds such as Mathematics, Physics,  Commerce, Biomedicine, and more. \n\nBro
 ad background \nSome members of the team also have experience with hardwar
 e. We have built a small model cluster with four Raspberry Pi nodes for tr
 aining and testing. The team has also constructed a small HPC cluster with
  the support of Dell and NVIDIA, gaining practical experiences in assembli
 ng and maintaining a server. \n\n\nHave any of the members participated be
 fore \nThe team has competed in several well known competitions around the
  globe such as ASC21, IndySCC21 and ISC22. In fact, the Monash DeepNeuron 
 SCC team has won First prize and Application award in ASC (http://www.asc-
 events.org/ASC20-21/) and came 2nd in IndySCC21. The team for IndySC22 wil
 l consist of experienced members who won ASC21 and IndySC21, and new membe
 rs who are first time joining the competition. Pascal and Nick have partic
 ipated in IndySCC21 and they are currently competing in ISC22. They are bo
 th passionate to reinforce the skills they learnt last year and achieve a 
 better result. Those experienced members will enable new members to learn 
 new technologies they face and ensure them making a meaningful contributio
 n to IndySC22.\n\nHow does SCC help academic career\nSCC is one of the bes
 t places which challenges students and inspires them to become future High
  Performance Computing researchers. The opportunities to attend a major co
 nference and to meet with peers and experts around the world would broaden
  students’ views on their future academic career. With the growing field o
 f artificial intelligence and data science, the experience of dealing with
  scientific programs, optimising them, speeding them up with parallel comp
 uting techniques using HPC will serve us well in our future endeavours. \n
 \nIntroduce the advisor and advisor's background\nThe team advisor is Mr S
 imon Michnowicz. Simon was the team advisor for the Monash SCC 2018 team, 
 as well as the ASC 21 and Indy Sc21 teams.  Simon works at Monash eResearc
 h, where he manages two HPC Clusters. As an accredited Software Carpentry 
 teacher, Simon is passionate about educating the next generation of HPC pr
 ofessionals.\n\nRegistration Category: Tech Program Reg Pass, Exhibits Reg
