The Story of Supercomputing: A Graphic Novel and Silicon Petting Zoo
Scientists use supercomputers to accelerate their research. A question that would take a decade to answer on a personal laptop can be answered much faster on a supercomputer. Join the Institute for Cyber-Enabled Research (ICER) as we take you on a journey with our graphic novel, The Story of Supercomputing, to learn how a scientist uses supercomputers to answer her super-questions. Do not miss our silicon petting zoo, where you will be able to explore parts of computers and supercomputers that you normally would not see. A supercomputing expert will be available to answer your questions!
