Lawrence Livermore heads to the 32nd annual Supercomputing Conference (SC20) held virtually throughout November 9–19. Be sure to follow LLNL Computing (@Livermore_Comp) on Twitter with these hashtags: #LLNLatSC, #SC20, #MoreThanHPC. The Department of Energy (@NatLabsHPC) will also tweet during the event.

All initial broadcast times are listed in Eastern Standard Time. This year the conference groups event types (e.g., tutorials, posters) into specific days. Much of the content is pre-recorded and will remain available online for six months. Tutorials will be live-streamed.
