[8] [see appendix A for the program translated into C++].Who Was Ada Lovelace?Ada Lovelace, daughter of the famed poet Lord Byron and known as Ada Byron, first metCharles Babbage at a party in 1833 when she was 17 and he was 41. Lovelace was fascinatedwith Babbage’s Difference Engine. With her analytical mind she could understand how itworked as few people could since she had been extensively tutored in mathematics throughouther childhood. Her mother had decided that a solid grounding in mathematics would ward offthe wild and romantic flair that possessed Lovelace’s estranged father. After meeting in 1833,Lovelace and Babbage remained a part of the same social circle and wrote to each otherfrequently [9].Ada Byron married William King in

to field trips and interacting with fellow students and mentors. While they acknowledge that they’ve learned a lot from participating in the research project, they believe that future projects have opportunities to contribute more to an increased understanding of HPC and engineering. All projects are computational in nature, and some of our students are not comfortable with the amounts of mathematical, engineering or programming background required. Challenges like this take away time for practicing HPC skills. Above all, since the duration of this REU site is only a short 10 weeks, so mentors and site directors must be mindful of what can be reasonably accomplished during the 10 weeks and set the

Engineering Education, 2018 Short-format workshops build skills and confidence for researchers to work with data.AbstractTraining for data skills is more critical now than ever before. For many researchers in industryand academic environments, a lack of training in data management, munging, analysis andvisualization could lead to a lack of funding to support sustainable projects. Today’s researchersare often learning ‘as they go’ and need the flexibility of short, or self-paced learningexperiences. Research results in educational pedagogy, however, stress the importance of guidedinstruction and learner-instructor interaction, which contrasts the need for ‘just in time’ training.We’ve taken a distinctive approach to this
