Call for BoFs

Please note that the call for BoFs is now closed.

Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) sessions are opportunities for ISC attendees with common interests to come together for informal discussions and for sharing new ideas and information on HPC topics. Each 45-minute session addresses a different topic and is led by one or more individuals with expertise in this area. The BoF sessions are open to all ISC participants, including exhibitors, and will be held on June 19 and June 20.
