SUMMARY:Introduction - HPC Systems Professionals Workshop (HPCSYSPROS18)
DESCRIPTION:Alex Younts (Purdue University), David Clifton (ANSYS Inc), an
 d Stephen Lien Harrell (Purdue University)\n\nIn order to meet the demands
  of high performance computing (HPC) researchers, large-scale computationa
 l and storage machines require many staff members who design, install, and
  maintain these systems. These HPC systems professionals include system en
 gineers, system administrators, network administrators, storage administra
 tors and operations staff who face problems that are unique to high perfor
 mance computing systems. While many conferences exist for the HPC field an
 d the system administration field, none exist that focus on the needs of H
 PC systems professionals. Support resources can be difficult to find to he
 lp with the issues encountered in this specialized field. Often times, sys
 tems staff turn to the community as a support resource and opportunities t
 o strengthen and grow those relationships are highly beneficial. This work
 shop is designed to share solutions to common problems, provide a platform
  to discuss upcoming technologies, and to present state of the practice te
 chniques so that HPC centers will get a better return on their investment,
  increase performance and reliability of systems, and researchers will be 
 more productive.\n\nTag: HPC Center Planning and Operations, State of the 
 Practice, System Administration\n\nRegistration Category: Workshop Reg Pas
