Best Student Poster Competition - you could win $500 and an iPad!

Call for Posters!

The San Diego Software Industries Council (SDSIC) invites submissions of high-quality posters. The poster session is intended to showcase exciting work in progress in the areas of Analytics focusing on massive amounts of data and the use of high performance computing.

Eligible student posters will be also included into the Best Student Poster Competition
providing a $500 monetary award AND an iPad!!

The poster session will provide a forum for researchers to showcase their exciting work. Posters need not describe complete work, but they should have at least preliminary results to report so that feedback on the ongoing work can be obtained from knowledgeable conference attendees. We especially encourage student poster submissions where the student is the first author. Posters will be evaluated based on their technical merit and innovation as well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of ideas.
