Even with lower turnout and fewer research computing sites attending in-person, UIT Center for High Performance Computing (CHPC) staff had many valuable discussions with fellow SC21 attendees about shared practices, experiences, and issues.

The Architecture and New Technology Committee (ANTC) will reconvene on January 24, and the Enterprise Web Advisory Council (EWAC) will meet again on February 10.
