PRACE ISC Award

PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe, will award a prize to the best paper submitted to the ISC Research Paper Sessions and the PRACE Scientific Conference in one of the following areas:

• a breakthrough in science achieved through high performance computing;
• an algorithm or implementation that achieves a significant improvement in scalability or performance;
• a novel approach to performance evaluation on a massively parallel architecture.

The PRACE Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) will select the paper to receive the Award, which will be presented at the ISC Opening Session.

The winner of the PRACE ISC Award will receive sponsorship for participation in a training event, or a conference relevant to petascale computing, and will have the opportunity to give keynote talks on their work during the PRACE Scientific Conference on Sunday, June 16, 2013 and the Research Papers Sessions on Monday, June 17, 2013.
