| The group remained rather small for several years, with only one faculty member in the area, until Fall 1997 when several new faculty joined the university. Gagan Agrawal joined the Department of Computer and Information Sciences as an Assistant Professor, while Guang Gao joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. With these new members, we broadened our scope and changed our name to SIGHPC - Special Interest Group in High Performance Computing. At this time, our group was still mostly a weekly seminar group of faculty and graduate students. This seminar group continues to be a weekly seminar, which graduate students register for each semester. However, in the spring 2000, we realized that with the increasing number of active research projects being conducted in this topic area here at the University of Delaware, we should officially establish the research group outside the SIGHPC seminar group, as it encompasses much more activity than the weekly seminar group now. Thus, the creation of HiperSpace, named after the major research efforts in compiling and software tools for high performance computing. | The group remained rather small for several years, with only one faculty member in the area, until Fall 1997 when several new faculty joined the university.
