Student Cluster Challenge

The second Student Cluster Challenge (SCC), which is organized in collaboration with the HPC Advisory Council (HPCAC), is a great opportunity for students to demonstrate their cluster hardware and software capabilities in a friendly and fun competition.

The students will have a unique opportunity to learn, experience and demonstrate how high-performance computing influence our world and day-to-day learning. The Student Cluster Challenge is designed to introduce the next generation of students to the high performance computing world and community.
