From the [Discuss] thread it looks like Ashwin Trikuta, Dana Brunson, and Kate Hertweck seem to have thought about HPC and done some work in the context SWC pedagogy and workshop methods. There are lots of others with material for particular systems, so the first thing to decide is probably what should be included and what should be left out within the length of time allotted at SC tutorials.\r\n\r\nIf we're going to pull off an hpc-carpnetry workshop for SC16, I suggest we use this thread to form the team, then start opening issues in this repository and get hacking."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/swcarpentry/hpc-novice/issues/comments/210724381","html_url":"https://github.com/swcarpentry/hpc-novice/issues/4#issuecomment-210724381","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/swcarpentry/hpc-novice/issues/4","id":210724381,"user":{"login":"omsai","id":166624,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/166624?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai","html_url":"https://github.com/omsai","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/omsai/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-04-16T03:08:40Z","updated_at":"2016-04-16T03:08:40Z","body":"1. It might be important to differentiate our proposed tutorial from a similar [\"Parallel Computing 101\"](http://sc15.supercomputing.org/schedule/event_detail?evid=tut140) tutorial that's been offered every year for the past few years (here is the [2015 video abstract](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1H2UbzeNrY) and [2013 course materials](http://ircc.fiu.edu/download/sc13/Parallel101_Slides.pdf)).  It looks like the 101 tutorial is more of a \"big picture\" conceptual introduction with a large breath of material; so I particularly like how our abstract currently relates to SC's mission of \"basic lab skills for research computing\".\r\n\r\n2. We should revise our abstract to be more user facing than for the proposal reviewers, since  it seems the organizing committee uses the proposal abstract in the conference program page (looking at other tutorial programs from previous years).  In some cases, other program abstracts mention their target audience, and so we could say our tutorial would be primarily of interest for teachers developing or improving their instructional material for novice users by sitting on the opposite side of instructional experience.\r\n\r\nI'll looks more closely at wording and make suggestions tomorrow."}}
