Day 1 of internship IHPC

Well, it was my first day of internship @ A*Star - Institute of High Performance Computing(IHPC). Met up with Ryan first as I not quite sure how to get there and thanks ryan and his dad for the free ride!! 

Met the rest at level 1 of fusionopolis(the name of the building) and headed up to level 16 to find Janice, the HR person. Had quite a number of forms to fill up before we met our supervisor, Kevin Veragoo. He was quite busy handling all the visitors so we were asked to familiar ourself with macbooks!! cool OS actually and so after lunch we were tasked to research on some stuff which includes:

• Compiler
  
• Open Source
• Linux Distributions
• OS Licenses
• GPL/BSD
• Linus Torvalds
• Richard Stallman
• Bill Gates
• Steve Jobs

Conclusion:

Cool building, great environment, superb supervisor
