April 8, 2026 Program Call for Participation e-Posters Research Posters Share this page: Twitter Facebook LinkedIn Email By Ayesha Afzal, SC26 Posters Chair & Communications Liaison for Tech Program SC26 Interactive Research e‑Posters offer a unique platform beyond the traditional poster setup. Presenters can showcase their work through interactivity, dynamic visualization, on-site code executions, hands‑on engagement, live demonstrations, and exploratory tools. For SC26, presenters are welcome to use e‑Posters to exhibit large collaborations, HPC education projects, collaborative tools, and groundbreaking research that thrives when experienced interactively. This format celebrates innovation and will allow the HPC community to experience the work firsthand, connecting presenters with their peers from across the globe. SC26 Interactive e‑Posters are more than a poster. They’re ideas in motion. Showcase your research dynamically and engage the HPC community like never before. Ayesha Afzal, SC26 Posters Chair Why Submit an e-Poster? Increased engagement by allowing attendees to explore datasets, run simulations, and interact with your research. Global visibility with your research displayed on high-resolution monitors throughout McCormick Place, the SC26 convention center.
