Research in Indiana

Abstract

From 2000 to 2003 universities within the State of Indiana collaborated to present a unified research exhibit at the annual SC (SuperComputing) conference on High Performance Networking and Computing. The SCxy conference, as it is known, is the top international conference in supercomputing and advanced networking. That a group of universities banded together to collectively show off the accomplishments of an entire state made quite an impression at this conference. Never before had this been done, and now several other states have copied this model. Core partners in this collaboration were Indiana University and Purdue University; these universities participated each year. The University of Notre Dame and the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology participated some but not all years. 2002 was one of the years in which all four universities participated. This handout was the basic “display brochure” that explained the goals of this collaborative display.
