Andrew Jones’ Post

It's that time of year - yes, the annual fest of press releases and social media deluges in the run up to #SC. Here is a handy guide for vendor PR teams ... [company] will be at #SC19! (Yes, along with almost everyone else in #HPC world) [company] will be highlighting products at SC19! (As above) [company] will launch new version of our current product in a slightly different shade of grey at SC19! (We had no actual news) However, the HPC centers are just as bad with "news" for the big annual #Supercomputing conference: [center] our users did some science! (We very much hope so) [center] system is top in niche category defined such that our system is top at the time of SC19! (well done) [center] will be at #SC19! (some vendors might be there vendors, see above) [center] staff to give talks and participate in BoFs at SC19! (The official program PDF has 937 pages filled with talks ...) And, of course, I’m no better: my repetitive SC PR ... "Andrew Jones & friends* to deliver tutorial on business of #HPC at #SC19!" (err, yup, just like SC18, SC17, SC16, SC15, SC13, so no news there!) * the friends this year are: Andrew Jones (aka @hpcnotes) Ingrid Barcena Roig Branden Moore Dairsie Latimer Sierra Koehler See you all in Denver! :-)
