SUMMARY:Random Access Clemories
DESCRIPTION:Student Cluster Competition\n\nRandom Access Clemories\n\nCalh
 oun, Sanders, Krasowska, Gindlesperger, Durham...\n\nHPC is a priority and
  topic of research across several departments and colleges at Clemson Univ
 ersity. Clemson students and faculty regularly use HPC to revolutionize th
 eir field. Last year, Clemson put together a diverse and competitive team 
 and competed for the second time. This year, Clemson’s Death Valley Comput
 ing is a diverse and strong team with new candidates who are applying thei
 r strengths and collaborating together to build a formidable team. Each me
 mber carries a strong foundation in traditional computer science and engin
 eering, along with their individual experiences and skill sets for various
  aspects of the competition. Participation in the SCC provides us with an 
 opportunity unlike any other to combine our knowledge and creativity to ev
 aluate and expand our understanding of HPC; more importantly, lay the foun
 dation for future opportunities in graduate school and industry. \n\nCoope
 r Sanders, a senior (CPE), is interested in GPU architecture and has worke
 d on many research projects at Clemson concerning HPC. He has contributed 
 to several codebases by porting scientific workflows to GPUs and optimizin
 g existing kernels. He is working with Los Alamos National Lab this summer
  on optimizing LANL research software.\n\nDavid Krasowska is a senior (CPE
 ) that is interested in hardware design and architecture. He has experienc
 e, including a published paper, in HPC research involving lossy data compr
 ession in collaboration with Argonne National Lab and Los Alamos National 
 Lab. \n\nEthan Gindlesperger, a senior (CPE) with a minor in mathematics a
 nd a focus on computer architecture.  Ethan has a background in video game
  design and robotics, and spent time interning with Intel last year. Ethan
  will parley his HPC experience in this competition to become a strong can
 didate for graduate school and/or industry jobs.\n\nLogan Durham is a soph
 omore (CS). He works in laptop support for Clemson IT. In his free time, h
 e works on older desktops and enterprise hardware, such as Dell Poweredge 
 servers and HP thin clients, to learn how systems are set up and managed. 
 He has participated in the HackHPC@PEARC21 hackathon and is working with L
 os Alamos National Laboratory on a data compression project.\n\nMoises Mar
 tinez Herrera is a freshman (CS). He works for Clemson’s IT helping custom
 ers with software and basic hardware issues. He is a first generation Hisp
 anic student at Clemson University. Moises has set up a personal storage s
 erver in his home and has participated in the Hello World hackathon hosted
  in Clemson.\n\nBenjamin Schlueter, a freshman (CPE) minoring in math and 
 business who is interested in artificial intelligence and HPC.  He has a p
 assion for learning as well as working with computers in events such as ha
 ckathons and creative inquiries. Benjamin has already built a cluster comp
 uter and is excited to learn more via participation in this competition.\n
 \nThe team’s mentor is Dr. Jon C. Calhoun, a tenure-track Assistant Profes
 sor of Electrical and Computer Engineering who researches fault tolerance 
 and lossy data compression. He is a strong advocate of HPC education and r
 esearch for undergraduates; mentoring 8 undergraduates in his research gro
 up in 2021-2022.\n\nRegistration Category: Tech Program Reg Pass, Exhibits
