Please join the Computers in Chemistry (COMP) division and the Auburn local section for our hands-on “Instant Supercomputer!” workshop at SERMACS 2009 (http://www.sermacs2009.org/). Volunteers are encouraged to bring their laptops to build a one-day instant supercomputer using custom bootable CDs that allow them to work in parallel. The workshop presents a unique opportunity to do “public science” to solve a current research problem with a real time audience, rather than disseminating prior results. Short presentations will introduce the concept behind large-scale computational chemistry and ad hoc cluster building. All attendees are welcomed to keep the CD to build their own personal clusters.
