SC19 Event Calendar

Lawrence Livermore heads to the 31st annual Supercomputing Conference (SC19) in Denver, Colorado, on November 17–22. Be sure to follow LLNL Computing on Twitter and other social media with these hashtags: #LLNLatSC, #SC19, #HPCisNow.

Times are listed in Colorado’s time zone, Mountain Standard Time. Birds of a Feather (BOF) sessions are interactive networking events. In addition to individual and team participation, the Laboratory will have a presence at the Student/Postdoc Job Fair in the Four Seasons Ballroom, while LLNL will join the Department of Energy (DOE) at Booth 925 in the Exhibition Hall. All events will take place at the Colorado Convention Center.
