SUMMARY:Supernova
DESCRIPTION:Student Cluster Competition\n\nSupernova\n\nLoke, Wang, Duong,
  Wang, Tan...\n\nTeam NTU was formed as part of the HPC club at NTU, a stu
 dent run club that promotes HPC adoption and awareness in the University. 
 Its diverse membership consists of students spanning a wide range of schoo
 ls, including the schools of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Comput
 er Science and Engineering, and Physical and Mathematical Sciences.\n\nBy 
 organizing weekly training sessions, we were able to build up attendees’ s
 kills and observe their competencies. From there, we were able to draw on 
 that diverse pool to select club members with the right set of skills requ
 ired to tackle this competition’s benchmarks and applications. \n\nOur mul
 tidisciplinary team consists of members from the School of Electrical and 
 Electronic Engineering, School of Computer Science and Engineering, and Sc
 hool of Physical and Mathematical Science.\n\nFurther, our members also ha
 ve a wide breadth of practical experience in administering and designing s
 mall-scale HPC systems, as some team members are also in charge of managin
 g the club’s own clusters within the University’s Parallel and Distributed
  Computing laboratory. Beyond just maintenance, they also liaise with spon
 sors and lab administrators to procure hardware so as to keep the clusters
  at the bleeding edge of HPC technology. By doing HPC, our members also ga
 ined knowledge for computer science and some general science, which helps 
 a lot on academic aspects.\n\nWe also have team members with prior partici
 pation in HPC-AI APAC, ISC and SC events. We believe our experience on tho
 se competitions would prove invaluable to our success in SC22. \n\nOur adv
 isor, Dr Bu-Sung Lee also gave us great support for learning HPC and joini
 ng all of these events. Dr. Lee is a faculty member of the School of Compu
 ter Science and Engineering, and also a member of the Policy & Resource Al
 location Committee at Singapore’s National Supercomputing Center (NSCC), t
 he team’s primary sponsor. He has been involved in many Asia-Pacific resea
 rch and education networks including the Singapore Advanced Research and E
 ducation Network (SingAREN) (as its founding president) as well as the Tra
 ns-Eurasia Information Network (TEIN-2).\n\nWe are also looking forward to
  learning from other teams for how they optimize the application and work 
 on the cluster, making new friends, exploring different SC conferences for
  state-of-the-art HPC technologies and enhancing our HPC skills.\n\nRegist
