ISC AWARDS

The annual Jack Dongarra Early Career Award and Lecture Series commemorates Professor Jack Dongarra’s lifelong contributions to the field of high performance computing and to the HPC community. The award and lecture will be incorporated into the conference series starting in 2023.

The award will go to an upcoming researcher (with a career span range of 5-18 years after PhD), who has been a catalyst for scientific progress through exceptional work in their field. In particular, outstanding individuals in the field of high performance computing within areas such as numerical algorithms and software libraries; computational sciences, and mathematics, as well as machine learning, will be considered for this award.

HANS MEUER AWARD

The Hans Meuer Award honors the most outstanding research paper submitted to the conference’s Research Papers Committee. This award has been introduced in the memory of the late Dr. Hans Meuer, general chair of the ISC conference from 1986 through 2014, and co-founder of the TOP500 project.

The paper selected as the winner of the ISC 2023 Hans Meuer Award is:

Expression Isolation of Compiler-Induced Numerical Inconsistencies in Heterogeneous Code
authored by Dolores Miao (University of California, USA), Ignacio Laguna (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA), Cindy Rubio-González (University of California, USA)

The winner of the Hans Meuer Award receives a cash prize of 3,000 Euros and an award certificate.

Springer, the international publisher specializing in science, technology and medicine, sponsors the call for research posters with the research poster award which recognizes three outstanding research posters as selected by members of the posters committee.

The following posters are nominated for the ISC 2023 Research Poster Award. The awarding will take place in person on Tuesday, May 23, at 2:30 - 3:30 p.m.
