Topic for This Session
How to Use Git for Your Code and in Your Research:

Are you tired of sending around dozens of versions of a paper with edits? How about fixing the same bug in your code that has mysteriously reappeared? Version control can greatly simplify your research workflow, allowing you to more easily track changes, authorship, and merge various edits/contributions from your collaborators. In this workshop you will experiment with the basics of git to help manage a range of files, from code for your data analysis to text-based files for your research papers. You'll also learn a bit about how using version control will make your research more transparent, reproducible, and sustainable.

"Computational Science at Sandia National Laboratories"

For more than 60 years, Sandia National Laboratories has delivered essential science and technology to resolve the nation's most challenging security issues. You are cordially invited to join UIUC CS alumni Dr. Chris Siefert and Dr. Fred Rothganger as they discuss their research as part of Sandia's Center for Computing Research, a collection of 150+ researchers in computer science, mathematics, engineering and related fields. They will give an overview of some of the research questions they and their Sandia colleagues are interested in, explain why they think Sandia is a great place for computational science researchers and have plenty of time to take questions. Find out why hundreds of your fellow Illini have decided that Sandia is the employer for them.
