On the morning of June 17th, invited by the Department of International Cooperation and Exchanges, Professor Varatnitski Yury from BelarusianState University delivered an academic report titledTheApplication of Supercomputing, Cyber Computing and Cloud Computing in Education. Some teachers from the School of Computer Science attended the meeting.
Firstly, Professor Varatnitski Yury mentioned several problems, among which education could not meet the requirements of teachers and students, and both information and resources could not be shared effectively. He also pointed out these problems had become the bottleneck for developing informational education, and influenced by locations, network transmission speed, the server’s digital processing capabilities and so on. Thus a new network computing model, cloud computing, came into being.Cloud computing refers to the use and access of multiple server-based computational resources via a digital network. Cloud users may access the server resources using a computer, net book, pad computer, smart phone, or other devices. In cloud computing, applications are provided and managed by the cloud server and data is also stored remotely in the cloud configuration. Users do not download and install applications on their own device or computer; all processing and storage is maintained by the cloud server. The on-line services may be offered from acloud provideror by a private organization.
During the meeting,Professor Varatnitski Yury discussed with teachers and students, and answered their questions patiently.
After the meeting, Professor Varatnitski Yury visited theInformation Security and Intelligence Research Center and some laboratories, and thoroughly discussed some topics concerning information security with teachers from the School of Computer Science.(Photos byLiu Changzheng)
