with High Performance Computing Teaching and ResearchAbstractToday’s scientists and engineers depend increasingly on information and tools made availablethrough new and advanced computing technologies, such as networks, large data analysis, andsophisticated simulation tools that assist in the understanding of natural phenomena. HighPerformance Computing (HPC) now plays a critical role in enabling such scientific andengineering inquiry. However, undergraduate students are still lacking experience in how HPCfunctions, because our current computing curricula do not adequately cover HPC. To solve thisproblem, a team of faculty members obtained external funding to improve undergraduatecomputing education through enhanced

animated characters are present tointeract with the participant to provide a more realistic experience as illustrated in Figure 7. Figure 7: The Christmas Inventory SceneExperimental Set upThe experiment was conducted in a lab with three VR compatible computers. Each participant hadto complete a demographic section and previous simulation sickness experience section.Participants were also asked to record their knowledge on virtual reality experience, video gameplaying experience, and retail store experience using a Likert scale. Then students were asked torespond to the six questions of the ST skills instrument. The six binary questions measure students’level of the complexity dimension and describe their preferences in

and the first implementation is planned for later this year. Theproject aims to (A) evaluate whether students exhibit a positive change in systems thinking afterthe systems thinking intervention, (B) assess the validity of the ST instrument adapted to thisproject and (C) assess the validity and reliability of the grading rubric developed for thisintervention. Exploratory analysis will also occur via use of meta-data available in the coursemanagement system.Phase I: Design- The Conceptual ApproachSystems thinking is a concept that dates back as early as the 1920s and is grounded in theories ofholism (attributed by Aristole, coined by J C Smuts), general systems theory, relational thinking,and cybernetics. Many well-known approaches have

students develop ideas based on opportunities they identify inorder to validate a market and assess the creation of value. The winner is often offered a“contract” to produce the product for university purposes [14] .Some schools integrated EML in their course projects. The authors of the paper “EntrepreneurialMindset and the University Curriculum [15]” applied technology based dynamic live case studywith color graphics animated computer simulation in their entrepreneurial course. The live casestudy involves multiple student visits to existing companies. Students construct a companysupply chain under the professor’s guidance. Bilen, et al suggested to provide students withmultiple exposures to what it means to have an entrepreneurial mindset [16

,simultaneously exhibiting both cost and effectiveness measures can be quite helpful.Requirement thresholds are shown on the display. These are useful to the decision-maker inassessing the degree to which each alternative meets functional and other criteria. This approachis recommended for most applications, because subjective evaluation by the customer andproducer can be directly accommodated in a visible way. Trade-offs become visible and can besubjectively consideredVIII. Summary and ConclusionsLegions of academicians and practicing professionals are continuing to develop and applypowerful tools for analysis, experimentation, modeling, simulation, animation, etc. to the domainof operations. These individuals represent the fields of industrial
