Monash eResearch student team wins award

In 2018, Monash eResearch sent a team of students to the world's premier SuperComputing Conference (SC18, in Dallas USA) to compete in a Student Cluster Competition.

After many years of mentoring and hard work, participating in similar competitions worldwide, the High-Performance Computing Student team of DeepNeuron won a Merit Award at the 6th APAC HPC-AI Competition.

Two students, Alistair Lim and Yusuke Miyashita, had the privilege of presenting their work (“Student Cluster Competitions: From Students to Future HPC Researchers”) at SupercomputingAsia 2024 and receiving the award for the team.
