SUMMARY:Team Phoenix: Georgia Institute of Technology
DESCRIPTION:Posters, Virtual Student Cluster Competition\n\nTeam Phoenix: 
 Georgia Institute of Technology\n\nThakkar, Jain, Chen, Kazmi, Agarwal...\
 n\nGeorgia Tech is a melting pot for the world’s most creative and curious
  minds. Our campus facilitates strong relationships, and from those relati
 onships, we build amazing things that shape our world. Our team is one suc
 h relationship. We have six students: Albert Chen, Ali Kazmi, Aman Jain, A
 sier Garcia Ruiz, Justin Prindle, and Marissa Sorkin. We were brought toge
 ther by our shared interest in high-performance computing, and we hope tha
 t the Student Cluster Competition helps us get involved in the HPC communi
 ty.  \n\nWe believe that our strong academic backgrounds, extensive resea
 rch and industry experience, and passion for computer science will help us
  succeed in this competition. Our team members study in 7 of the 8 concent
 rations that Georgia Tech offers its computer science majors. Half of our 
 members do research with Tech faculty in fields such as video analytics, m
 usical analysis, and computer vision. All of us also have industry experie
 nce having interned for companies including Scaled Robotics, State Farm, a
 nd Google. \n\nJustin is a TA in the College of Computing who currently t
 eaches the introduction to computer architecture course and has taught oth
 er courses in the past. Their passion for computing theory drew them to th
 is competition. Ali enjoys competing at hackathons, and as a freshman, he’
 s won awards at HackDuke’s hackathon for social good and placed second in 
 the international Virtual RobotX competition. Asier and Aman both enjoy bu
 ilding computers, which inspired them to participate in this competition. 
 They both also enjoy math. Asier is a mathematics double major and Aman is
  a math minor.  Albert is interested in interdisciplinary applications of 
 HPC in fields such as medicine. Marissa’s software engineering experiences
  on data visualization projects, testing big data applications, and intern
 ship at Intel all account for her interest in HPC. \n\nBecause of the aca
 demic rigor of Georgia Tech and our affinity for learning, we all possess 
 fundamental computer science skills. We've all taken “Data Structures and 
 Algorithms”. Four of us also have taken “Introduction to Computer Systems 
 and Networks”. All of us are familiar with the Linux terminal, and four of
  us use Linux machines on our daily machines. Outside of our classes, we a
 re involved in computer science clubs such as CS+Social Good, Women @ Coll
 ege of Computing, and GT Programming Team.  \n\nOur team’s involvement in
  extracurricular clubs, industry, and research demonstrates both our talen
 t as computer scientists and our ability to work cohesively as teammates. 
 We are intellectually diverse students who are passionate about the things
  we specialize in, but we all share our curiosity for high-performance com
 puting. By competing at SCC, we hope to design a powerful computer system,
  optimize software to push the limits of our system, and learn about apply
 ing core HPC concepts to our own projects and careers. We also hope to adv
 ance our professional careers by forming meaningful connections with resea
 rchers at Georgia Tech, engineers working on the frontiers of computationa
 l technologies, and passionate students from around the world.\n\nTag: Stu
