STUDENT GRANTS

Students who are US citizens or attending US universities/institutions are encouraged to apply for grants which will cover registration and defray travel and hotel costs. Awards are based on students' experience, activity, and interest in the field of cluster and high-performance computing. Preference will be given to those students presenting posters or papers, but we expect enough funding for awards to students who are interested in attending the IEEE Cluster programs.

Grants will refund or waive registration and reimburse some travel and hotel costs. Application details are available on the IEEE Cluster 2011 website. The deadline for Student Grant applications is August 26th, and notification will be sent on August 29th.

PROGRAM

Keynote talks will be delivered by Thomas Sterling, Louisiana State University; Yang XueJun and Liu GuangMing, National University of Defense Technology (China) and the National Security Council (China); and Charles Moore, Advanced Micro Devices.

Program includes: 40 technical papers, 3 workshops, 3 panels, 6 tutorials, poster session, social activity - live music in downtown Austin!
