At each session, a guest lecturer examines some topic on current research and developments in computer systems. Speakers are drawn from industry, government, research, and educational institutions around the world. The topics touch upon all aspects of computer science and engineering including logic design, computer organization and architecture, software engineering, computer applications of all sorts, public policy, and the social, business, and financial implications of technology. Frequently the Colloquium provides the first public forum for discussion of new products, discoveries, or ideas. en-us Education no Computer Systems Colloquium - Fall 2006 - The Future Evolution of High-Performance Microprocessors - (September 27, 2006) The evolution of high-performance microprocessors has recently gone through a significant inflection point. 1323351978 Wed, 14 Nov 2007 18:37:06 GMT Education Norm Jouppi, HP Laboratories 1:02:08 no Computer Systems Colloquium - Fall 2006 - New Architectures for a New Biology - (October 11, 2006) David Shaw describes the current state of the art in biomolecular simulation and explores the potential role of high-performance computing technologies in extending current capabilities. 1323712351 Wed, 14 Nov 2007 18:37:06 GMT Education David E.
