Practice and Experience in Advanced Research Computing (PEARC24) Evaluation Report

Abstract

The eighth annual Practice & Experience in Advanced Research Computing (PEARC) conference, highlighting Human Powered Computing, was held July 21–July 25, 2024, in Providence, Rhode Island. The PEARC conference series is a community-driven effort built on the successes of the past, with the aim to grow and increase inclusivity by involving additional local, regional, national, and international cyberinfrastructure and research computing partners spanning academia, government, and industry. The PEARC Conference Series works to integrate and meet the collective interests of the growing Research Computing and Data (RCD) community by providing a forum for discussing challenges, opportunities, and solutions among its broad range of participants. PEARC Conferences are organized by a group of dedicated volunteers from the community, with oversight by a Steering Committee comprised of a diverse cohort of community members and are sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the world’s largest educational and scientific computing society. This report summarizes results from the PEARC24 evaluation activities.
