The annual TACC Symposium for Texas Researchers is a meeting of scientists, engineers, scholars, and students from across the state of Texas who use, and would like to use, the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) to advance their research goals.
The Texas Advanced Computing Center is part of the Office of the Vice President for Research at The University of Texas at Austin. Since its founding in 2001, TACC has been committed to facilitating open science research across a robust ecosystem of advanced computing resources, truly powering discoveries that change the world.
"We have over a petabyte of data, and predominantly use JetStor fiber channel storage. JetStor is dependable, and robust; we have production units that are a decade old. The units are also simple to install and configure. And the support is amazing; they respond on weekends to my non-urgent requests, and work until the problem is resolved."
"We have been running multiple generations of JetStor platforms for over 15 years. We have over 6PB in storage capacity across the hospital. We had few drives fail over the years and they have been replaced by AC&NC via next day service. When we have an issue support team gets back to us within minutes. We never lost data with JetStor. We are getting an amazing cost per TB with JetStor as well. Our experience with AC&NC JetStor has been absolutely amazing as we continue to use JetStor platforms for many years to come."
AC&NC JetStor provides individual components, custom builds solutions or delivers infrastructure as a service. We can supply purpose-built storage appliances or entire racks and stacks, including storage, servers, switches, and software.
We offer both cost-effective systems for applications like video surveillance, Internet of Things, and archiving, and the performance and capacity for big-data use cases like HPC, media production, medical imaging or flight simulations. We enable small and mid-sized organizations to undertake big data projects. Whatever you require, we will always provide strong returns on investment.
Our software solutions deliver on the promise of software-defined storage. They empower converged systems to outperform disaggregated products while offering a file system that scales out to 18 million terabytes. You will gain advanced management and the highest levels of resiliency and data protection. We eliminate data loss, ensuring compliance and the integrity of all data assets.
UCAR is responsible for the financial, human resources, facilities, and core information technology functions that are essential to its success, no small feat considering the roster of employees and participating scientists scattered across seven continents. Its many applications must always be available, and storage performance has become critical because of the increasing size and sophistication of its apps. Compounding the challenge is the Enterprise Information Technology (EIT) migration of some business functions to a hybrid environment using local data centers and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) for greater efficiencies, enabling the team to retire a myriad of physical servers.
Pittsburgh, PA, July 15, 2024. JetStor is celebrating 30 years as a leading provider of reliable and affordable data storage solutions, including All Flash/Hybrid Flash storage systems. JetStor, formerly AC&NC, grew from a tiny start-up in Pittsburgh to a vendor...

The MSc is designed to combine theory and practice. It teaches the advanced techniques and ideas that are being developed in application domains (such as machine learning, verification and computer security) and the rich and diverse theories that underpin them. These include models of computation and data, and mathematical analysis of programs and algorithms.
Entrants to the course will come from either a computer science or mathematical background. You may be a recent graduate in computer science and will supplement your knowledge with the kind of sound mathematical basis which is not always found in undergraduate courses. If you are a graduate in mathematics you will apply your training in the context of a rigorous application of the fundamental techniques of computer science.
You will develop knowledge and understanding of a formal disciplined approach to computer science, a range of relevant concepts, tools and techniques, the principles underpinning these techniques and the ability to apply them in novel situations. On subsequent employment, you will be able to select techniques most appropriate to your working environment, adapt and improve them as necessary, establish appropriate design standards for both hardware and software, train colleagues in the observance of sound practices, and keep abreast of research and development.
The academic year is split into three terms of eight weeks but work on the MSc course continues throughout the year and is not restricted just to term time. During the three terms of the course, you will choose from modules on various aspects of computer science. Most modules will last for one term and will be between 16 to 24 lectures. In addition, all modules will have associated classes and some may also have practical sessions (labs) associated with them. In the third term (Trinity term) you will undertake a dissertation.
The options that are offered may vary from year to year as the course develops, and according to the interests of teaching staff. The above examples illustrate the kinds of topics that have been offered recently.
The allocation of thesis supervision for the course is the responsibility of the Department of Computer Science and it is not always possible to accommodate the preferences of incoming graduate students to work with a particular member of staff. Under some circumstances it may be appropriate for a student's thesis work to be supervised by a faculty member outside the department of Computer Science.
You will be assigned an initial supervisor on arrival in Oxford whose role is to act as an academic advisor during the first two terms of the course. In the third term, a thesis supervisor will be agreed on.
A dissertation, completed independently under the guidance of an expert supervisor, on a topic of your choice and approved by the supervisor and MSc Course Director will be submitted by the end of the third term (Trinity Term).
The University will seek to deliver this course in accordance with the description set out in this course page. However, there may be situations in which it is desirable or necessary for the University to make changes in course provision, either before or after registration. The safety of students, staff and visitors is paramount and major changes to delivery or services may have to be made in circumstances of a pandemic, epidemic or local health emergency. In addition, in certain circumstances, for example due to visa difficulties or because the health needs of students cannot be met, it may be necessary to make adjustments to course requirements for international study.
Where possible your academic supervisor will not change for the duration of your course. However, it may be necessary to assign a new academic supervisor during the course of study or before registration for reasons which might include illness, sabbatical leave, parental leave or change in employment.
The requirements described below are specific to this course and apply only in the year of entry that is shown. You can use our interactive tool to help you evaluate whether your application is likely to be competitive.
This course requires proficiency in English at the University's higher level. If your first language is not English, you may need to provide evidence that you meet this requirement. The minimum scores required to meet the University's higher level are detailed in the table below.
If your ability to meet the entry requirements has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic (eg you were awarded an unclassified/ungraded degree) or any other exceptional personal circumstance (eg other illness or bereavement), please refer to the guidance on extenuating circumstances in the Application Guide for information about how to declare this so that your application can be considered appropriately.
