“…Other aimed at evaluating the performance gap between cloud and on-premise resources [12,20,28]. Additionally, a lot of effort has been invested into the HPC job scheduling, as well as application testing and tuning within the cloud environments [5,6,15,19,30]. Therefore, it could be found that most interests of combining HPC and cloud are laid on using cloud as IaaS (infrastructure as a Service).…”

Experiencing a tremendous growth, Cloud Computing offers a number of advantages over other distributed platforms. Introducing the advantages of High Performance Computing (HPC) also brought forward the development of HPCaaS (HPC as a Service), which has mainly focused on flexible access to resources, cost-effectiveness, and the no-maintenance-needed for end-users. Besides providing and using HPCaaS, HPC centers could leverage more from Cloud Computing technology, for instance to facilitate operation and administration of deployed HPC systems, commonly faced by most supercomputer centers. This paper reports the product, EasyOP, developed to realize the idea that one or more Cloud or HPC facilities can be run over a centralized and unified control platform. The main purpose of EasyOP is that the information of HPC systems hardware and system software, failure alarms, jobs scheduling, etc. is sent to the Wuxi cloud computing center. After a series of analysis and processing, we are able to share many valuable data, including alarm and job scheduling status, to HPC users through SMS, email, and WeChat. More importantly, with the data accumulated on the cloud computing center, EasyOP can offer several easy-to-use functions, such as user(s) management, monthly/yearly reports, one-screen monitoring and so on. By the end of 2016, EasyOP successfully served more than 50 HPC systems with almost 10000 nodes and over of 300 regular users.

The creation of an engaging online learning environment where students feel a sense of belonging is a challenge for all educators. With the rise of online courses, discussion forums are commonly used to connect students with course content, peers, and instructors. However, these discussions are often text-based in nature. The purpose of this quantitative study examined preservice teacher perceptions of Flipgrid in an introductory educational technology course. Statistically significant relationships between groups were found related to two of the three components of the Community of Inquiry framework. Specifically, the findings suggest those enrolled in a hybrid course perceived Flipgrid as a more effective platform to create cognitive and teaching presence than those online. Additionally, hybrid learners were significantly more likely to use Flipgrid in their own teaching practices. In this article, an analysis of findings will be discussed and provide suggestions for future research.
