[Moabusers] Moab-Con 2008: Advancing Computing Intelligence

[Nick Ihli]

Cluster Resources is excited to invite you to the first annual Moab-Con! 
/Moab-Con 2008: Advancing Computing Intelligence/ will be a four-day 
conference, May 27-30, geared specifically for Moab and TORQUE users on 
how they can extract the most out of their HPC infrastructures.

General session topics will focus on real-world solutions that can be 
applied today such as autonomics, Windows/Linux hybrid clusters, 
managing fairness and SLA, holistic resource management and automated 
capacity planning. There will also be extensive Q&As with Moab and 
TORQUE developers. Check out the other session topics at:

Moab Con will take place in Provo, UT (approximately 40 minutes south of 
Salt Lake City). Register at:

information on Moab Con.

The first day of the conference will be an extensive, in-depth training 
in TORQUE, Moab Cluster Suite and Moab Grid Suite. Developers will hold 
3 hour sessions geared to administrators interested in becoming better 
acquainted with these products and sessions will include Q&A time with 
the developers. The same training is normally $2,500 on-site, so this is 
a great opportunity to take advantage of the $275 tutorial fee for the 
entire day.

For the other conference days there will be two classes offered each 
hour of the conference, a general session and a special-topic breakout 
session. Moab Con is open to everyone, however, there is limited seating 
in the special-topic breakout sessions. Seats will be assigned on a 
first come/first served basis so be sure to register early and reserve 
your seats at: _http://www.clusterresources.com/moabcon/register.php_

This conference is an opportunity to meet and collaborate with some of 
the best minds in the HPC community and to have one-on-one interactions 
with Cluster Resources’ developers. We hope you’ll join us for this 
exciting four-day event!
