Sorry, I meant if you felt the discussions were affected considering the volume. Challenging to keep discussion time/paper consistent!

Apparently record submissions this year (+40% from SC’24), I guess discussions had to be more streamlined to cover the volume?

Dedicated 1,3,5 min queues.

Happy New (Allocation) Year to all those who rely on DOE/NSF computing facilities. A moment of silence for the unused compute hours.

I hope so too, but acquisition can change the dynamics

We need ads here (eventually), and somebody to acquire bsky.

To that end, there were some technical talks by Meta, which delved into different recomm. workloads (harder) and network issues at scale. Need more of such examples.

Millimeter wave shoe scanners are available now, hopefully in another couple of years the body scanner will have integrated shoe scanning.

Online conversations can have such limitations, but expecting a bit more candor in technical program..

SC24: I feel folks have toned down (constructive) criticism on HPC research, broad consensus, scarce opposing views, etc. at interpersonal level. Criticism beats praise, please give it straight (especially community leaders).

It would be cool to have an option for the accepted paper authors to specify which session best identifies their work. I felt there were some slight mismatches this year (not complaining).

Empty when full

Thanks Glenn, I’ll send an email tomorrow morning, but now it is 1:30-2:30P, so you can amble from your BoF to A312. Alas this is an oral session bec I’m not sure if there is a projector in the room (as you can tell we were late in procuring a room), but happy to relay slides to stud.@sc24 slack.
