⭐️We’re proud to share the success of the 2026 Single Board Cluster Competition — now in its fourth year!⭐️

This year, the competition brought together 12 teams across four continents, with approximately 55–60 students participating. Over the course of three days, the event ran across multiple time zones, supported by a dedicated student committee, whose coordination and commitment made the experience seamless for everyone involved.

Congratulations to our top-performing teams:
🥇 National University of Singapore
🥈 UC San Diego (Team 2)
🥉 UC San Diego (Team 1)

It’s exciting to see this competition continue to grow in both scale and global reach, fostering collaboration, technical excellence, and community among students worldwide.

Looking forward to what next year brings!

Skilled experts are essential for operating super-powerful supercomputers. 👩‍💻

These machines perform complex calculations at unprecedented speeds for demanding scientific and engineering tasks, a rapidly evolving field that requires top-tier training.

That's why NSF is expanding hands-on training opportunities that allow new researchers to use advanced computing tools for discovery and innovation, including access to leading experts and world-class facilities.

Two of those initiatives are the NSF Training-based Workforce Development for Advanced Cyberinfrastructure and NSF Experiential Learning for Emerging and Novel Technologies, which focus on training and expanding the national workforce in advanced cyberinfrastructure and emerging technologies.
