ISC07

Over the past 20 years the Supercomputer conferences, now in Dresden, have grown into a large event, this year with over 1200 attendees and 85 exhibitors. We asked ISC'07 chairman Hans Meuer about the reasons for this success and the highlights of the conference.

Primeur: What were the highlights of ISC'07 in your vision?

Meuer: I would claim first of all it was a very, very successful event, most likely the best one ever for the following reasons. First, we have passed the 1200 attendance treshold. One year ago we had 915. These attendants are not only for the main conference, but all the attendants together. We had approximately 540 conference attendants and the rest was for the automotive, the scientific sessions, the exhibition people and the visitors with day passes and so on.
