“Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 27th edition of HiPCHiPC 2020 will be held VIRTUALLY this year.

About HYPER

The IEEE International Conference on High Performance Computing, Data, and Analytics (HiPC) is organizing HYPER, an annual initiative that brings together teams of students/developers with researchers from academia/industry to develop innovative open source software that have scientific value and result in research publications in the areas of high performance and cloud computing, and data science and analytics. HYPER aims to combine the human capital of high quality programmers among students and practitioners, with mentorship by senior researchers, to produce

  1. Open source software artifacts to benefit the scientific and enterprise community

  2.Good quality peer-reviewed research papers

  3. Train students in research methods. It also allows industry partners to champion     these activities by sponsoring soft resources, travel, internships, medals, etc.

 

HYPER will also facilitate industry interaction with high-quality students. Research minded faculty and students will also get an opportunity to work with industry experts.

HYPER will run for 6 months, starting from team formation in March to final publication of the software outcomes and submission of a research paper by September/October, with the teams participating in a mid-term review during IndoSys in July, and a final presentation at the HiPC conference in December.

HYPER is loosely based on the model followed by Google’s Summer of Code, but with research outcomes expected.
