Events
-
HPCP Meeting Room
- HPCP Students are invited to meet when they wish in the CCSS
Laboratory, Room 117 of the Oliphant Wing of the Physics
building. While we do share this room with other physics groups,
it is usually available.
-
HPCP Meeting Time
- We'll find a time when all HPCP Students are available to meet.
Drop by the HPCP Meeting Room to catch up with your HPCP friends.
-
Tour of eResearch SA Supercomputers
- eRSA's new supercomputer Corvus was installed in April
2007. We'll tour the high-performance facilities including,
Corvus,
Aquila
and Hydra, to have an inside look at these
supercomputers.
-
South Australian Virtual Reality Centre (SAVRC)
- We'll visit this 3D immersive virtual reality centre
to view data created by HPCP students. While we're there we'll
enjoy some of the leading-edge virtual reality applications used
at SAVRC.
