Integrating teaching and research in HPC: Experiences and opportunities

Abstract

Multidisciplinary research reliant upon high-performance computing stretches the traditional educational framework into which it is often shoehorned. Multidisciplinary research centers, coupled with flexible and responsive educational plans, provide a means of training the next generation of multidisciplinary computational scientists and engineers. The purpose of this paper is to address some of the issues associated with providing appropriate education for those being trained by, and in the future being employed by, multidisciplinary computational science research environments. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
