Summer Workshop for Undergraduates High-Performance Scientific Computing University of Colorado, May 24 - June 4, 1993 This residential workshop is designed for upper division undergraduate students who are interested in learning about the use of supercomputers, high-performance workstations, and visualization in scientific computing. Workshop participants will use a Connection Machine (CM-2), a Cray Y-MP, DEC 5000 and SGI Indigo workstations, AVS and IDL (scientific visualization tools) for solving problems in molecular dynamics, wave motion, and visualization of data. Participants will reside in Kittredge Residence Halls on the University campus. Classes and laboratory sessions will be held in the Engineering Center located nearby. Residence expenses (room and board) will be paid by a grant from the National Science Foundation. Transportation expenses will not be covered. Attendance at the workshop will be limited to sixteen students. Selection of participants will be based on the following criteria: Statement of interest.
