SuperComputing 26
Purdue University is attending the 2026 International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis (SC26). For more than 20 years, Purdue has participated in SC by showcasing the people and computing resources that make Purdue a leader in HPC and research in higher education. This year will see the continuation of that legacy with captivating presentations at the Purdue exhibitor's booth, fun alumni networking events, workforce development opportunities, and more!
SC26 is an annual conference where the brightest minds in computing and technology from around the world gather in one location for a week of communication, collaboration, and innovation. The conference will take place this year in Chicago, Illinois, from November 15-20. Purdue’s exhibitor booth, hosted by the Rosen Center for Advanced Computing (RCAC), will be on-site providing attendees with talks, demonstrations, and engaging activities. The list of Purdue booth presentations for SC26 is as follows:
