As in previous years, the Broader Engagement (BE) Program’s goal is to increase the participation of individuals from groups that have been traditionally under-represented in HPC. In 2013, SC is enhancing our program activities to strengthen our intent for BE to be an “On Ramp” for the Technical Program. Consistent with these ideas, SC is organizing their funded participants into two tracks: On-Ramp (formerly known as the "standard" track) and Superhighway (formerly known as the "advanced track"). Competitive grants will be awarded to participants in both tracks. They expect the majority of funded On-Ramp participants to be new to HPC, to participate fully in BE, and to stay through at least the end of Thursday to experience the Technical Program. SC expects the majority of funded Superhighway participants to have HPC experience, to participate in the SC13 Tutorials, and to at least partially fund themselves. They will provide mentoring to help Superhighway participants find external funding. Each of these groups will benefit from a diverse line-up of top-flight speakers from industry, academia, and government laboratories. Consistent with the aim of serving as a pipeline, SC is making shifts in the BE schedule and activities prior to, during, and after SC13. For example, both their Student and our Faculty/Professional application deadlines are now six weeks prior to the SC13 poster submission deadline. This will facilitate leveraging the Mentor/Protégé program to provide pre-submission mentoring to those submitting posters. Consistent with this, they are adjusting the focus of the Mentor/Protégé program to center around mentoring that leads to participation in the SC Technical Program. The hope is that broader academic- and career-oriented mentoring will happen as a natural by-product, but their goal is to serve the HPC research community directly and intently by expanding it.
