How to start a regional HPC in your state. Starting with a planning grant, a workshop, and a few willing participants, we were able to prepare for the next NSF CC* solicitation and build a successful proposal in the 90 day submission window. The group has gone on to establish a state-wide consortium to guide and encourage the adoption of the HPC in faculty and student research as well as the use of the HPC resource in undergraduate classroom instruction.
As time allows, we will discuss the re-chartering of the ShowMeCI CyberInfrastructure support and advocacy group in Missouri.
