Comments from Judges
Henry_Neeman: This project simulates a ring network with multiple links between adjacent nodes, testing for data corruption when links are broken. The topic is obviously appealing to people in the supercomputing field. The project team has done a good job of creating the simulation software, and the report is well structured. An interesting follow-on would be a simulation of other network topologies, especially CLOS networks, which are extremely common in contemporary cluster supercomputers.
