1 Sino-German Symposium on Cloud-based High Performance Computing Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel President and CEO Hasso Plattner Institute hpi potsdam de/meinel/

2 Welcome to the Sino-German Symposium Cloud-based HPC 2 Beside of my colleague, Prof. Wu Zhang, also I as co-chair of the symposium I welcome all our speakers and participants, too I m thankful to my co-chair, chair Prof. Wu Zhang, and his team from Shanghai university for all the local organizational work my colleagues from various German universities for following our invitation to attend this symposium in Shanghai the Sino-German Center for Science Foundation for financially supporting our Workshop my post-doc assistant, Dr. Feng Cheng, for all his communication work and the preparation of the program I m sure, we will have a good time in Shanghai Sino-German C-HPC Workshop Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel September 27th, 2011

3 Welcome to the Sino-German Symposium Cloud-based HPC 3 The fruitful idea behind such symposia is to bring together leading scientists and professors from China and from Germany to discuss relevant topics to meet and learn more about recent developments in sciences, university and social affairs in both countries to acquire friendship We have got very good experiences about this for a sympoisum on the topic of Digital universities, organized last year in Beijing Sino-German C-HPC Workshop Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel September 27th, 2011

4 Hasso Plattner Institute Short Introduction Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel Institutsdirektor und CEO Hasso-Plattner-Institut GmbH hpi potsdam de/meinel/

5 HPI Short Introduction: Hasso Plattner and his Visioni 5 As one of the founders of SAP Hasso Plattner has worked with thousands of IT-Engineers and has a clear vision about the needed qualification profile He founded a trust to support pioneering activities in cultivation the gifted youngs in this profession In 1998 the trust financed the foundation of a really inspiring university environment the Hasso-Plattner-Institute HPI for educating the best young peoples in IT-systems engineering Hasso Plattner himself is also active in teaching and research at HPI

6 HPI Short Introduction: Factsheet 6 Full professors and chairs: 10 Lecturers, Assistant Professors, Scientific Co-workers: 100 PhD-Students: internal, 20 external ones Bachelor and Master Students: 450 Alumnis: 600 BAs, 250 MSs, 40 PhDs Top rank among all German speaking Computer Science Departments

7 HPI Short Introduction: Teaching 7 HPI offers two university level programs of study IT-Systems Engineering with international accepted degrees Bachelor of Science (3 years, annually 80 new students) and Master of Science (2 years, annually 60 new students) Students are enrolled at the (state) University of Potsdam

8 HPI Short Introduction: Technology Use in Teaching 8 Lectures, conferences, colloquia at HPI are recorded with the mobile tele-task Technology (designed at HPI) HPI-Platform gives cost free access to more than lecture recordings, and has registered more than 25 Mio visits Within HPI-Intranet students work on the tele-task platform is supported by various semantic and social Web3.0-technologies HPI-Web-Uni HPI also provides its lecture recordings at Apple s university portal itunesu. itunesu counts more than 5 million downloads and weekly up to visits

9 HPI Teleteaching Our Mobile tele-task System 9 ACM Einstein Award Connect 2. Start 3. Recording/streaming

10 Tele-TASK TASK Portal: t 10 Internet portal with tele-task recordings of lectures, presentations, and conferences at thpi > lecture recordings > podcast (MP4, FLV) > presentors > last semester downloads

11 tele-task Podcasts itunes U 11 itunes U Apple s university portal Since 2009 HPI has a own portal side ate itunesu with 12 content t areas (lectures, HPI life, etc.) > video podcast episodes Weekly downloads (in peak ) 000) and meanwhile more than 3.3 Mio downloads

12 HPI Research 12 Profound teaching on university level needs brilliant and internationally distinguished professors with a high scientific reputation That s why, at HPI in teaching and research we emphasize scientific excellence, project-based teaching approach and close cooperation with (IT-)industry and real life HPI students profit from the close connections between research projects and teaching famous Humboldt principle Main units of HPI in research and teaching are the HPI chairs leaded by professors each of them with internationally high reputation
