Reinventing HPC

Birds of a Feather Submission

PLEASE NOTE: The Call for ISC BoFs is closed.

Like-minded ISC attendees come together in the Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions to discuss current HPC topics, network and share their thoughts and ideas. Each 60-minute BoF addresses a different topic and is led by one or more individuals with expertise in the area.

BoFs are informal compared to panels, technical paper sessions, tutorials, vendor talks, and other more presentation-oriented parts of the ISC program. They provide a platform for a dynamic conversation with peers, experts, leaders, and anybody from the HPC community sharing common interests.

Proposals should demonstrate a clear concept for the interactive nature of their BoF.

Information for speakers: Please look at our Speaker Manual, which provides guidance and information in preparing and delivering your upcoming presentation at ISC 2023.
