Is Seattle the center of supercomputing?

This week the industry’s largest conference, Supercomputing 2011, takes place at the Washington Convention and Trade Center. This marks the conference’s second visit to Seattle. Ten thousand attendees will fill the Convention Center (and the Cheesecake Factory, across the street).

As the industry gets bigger, it also gets wider. The SC’11 organizers have an initiative called "Broader Engagement" to address the missing middle. These are the companies and technical professionals on the margins of supercomputing. Organizations that could benefit from supercomputing but just don’t know it.
