SUMMARY:Enhancing HPC Education through Virtual Cluster Administration and
  Benchmarking
DESCRIPTION:Charles Lindsey, Jeffrey Valdez, Aaron Jezghani, Will Powell, 
 and Rich Vuduc (Georgia Institute of Technology)\n\nThe rapid advancement 
 in high-performance computing (HPC) poses significant challenges for the H
 PC community. Current HPC training approaches are often too generic or too
  customized to local environments, limiting their applicability and impact
 . Often, these shortcomings are due to the limited accessibility, excessiv
 e cost, and specialized support necessary to provide HPC environments for 
 teaching. To address these challenges, we introduce HPC Virtual Cluster, a
  hardware-agnostic platform designed to provide an easy-to-configure, gene
 ralizable, and scalable approach to HPC system management for training and
  education in computational research alongside production system configura
 tions. We implemented this platform in a virtually integrated project (VIP
 ) course aimed at training undergraduates for HPC cluster building. Drawin
 g from our experience from the VIP course, we advocate for the integration
  of more comprehensive educational and training approaches, such as HPC Vi
 rtual Cluster, to better support HPC.\n\nTag: Distributed Computing, Educa
