Register
Registration is closed. We look forward to seeing you at SC19 in Denver.
At SC18 we want to make your registration process smooth and easy. Before you register, review the steps below, so you can select the best registration package for your schedule and budget.
Step 1: Membership in ACM, IEEE, or SIGHPC
Are you an ACM, IEEE, or SIGHPC member? With a membership in any of these societies you will receive a substantial discount on your SC conference registration. For example, members can save up to $150 over non-members by registering online or on-site for the Technical Program. Review the registration categories and fees below to discover more examples of member savings.
