That is now changing. The purpose of the University of California High-Performance AstroComputing Center (UC-HiPACC), which began operating in January 2010, is to realize the full potential of the University of California's world-class resources in computational astronomy. Through its annual intensive UC-HIPACC international summer school focused on a special topic in computational astronomy, UC-HiPACC is introducing the next generation of graduate students and post-docs to hands-on experience with the best available codes on some of the world's most powerful supercomputers. Indeed, UC-HiPACC is fostering interdisciplinary collaboration to advance the state of the art in computation and data storage and analysis. Through travel grants and other funding opportunities, UC-HiPACC is promoting cross-fertilization among scientists with complementary expertise within the UC system and affiliated national labs, thereby fostering a tradition of system-wide collaborations is empowering..
