DARWIN Text

Thank you for joining us for the University of Delaware Data Science Institute (DSI)’s fourth annual DARWIN Computing Symposium on February 23, 2023.

This DARWIN Computing Symposium serves as the preeminent event for academics and industry partners working at the intersection of high performance computing and data science in the Delaware region. It is also the annual meeting for the NSF-funded DARWIN High Performance Computing (HPC) Resource. The 2023 DARWIN Computing Symposium hosted a series of panels and talks on DARWIN, on future computational and data-intensive (CDI) research/training needs, on regional collaboration, and on HPC-enabled research more generally. In addition, poster presentations by (under)graduate students and postdocs highlighted a number of relevant CDI research projects.

The 2023 DARWIN Computing Symposium proceedings are accessible here.

Recordings and photos of the event are available below.
