MSI held the tenth annual Research Exhibition on April 16, 2019. The event included a panel discussion about careers in HPC-related fields, presentations by industry representatives about current and emerging technologies, and a judged poster session. Attendees were also able to take tours of MSI’s machine room and see visualizations created by MSI users at the Visualization Lab.
