Today in #ComputingHistory in 1954, the first successful execution of a FORTRAN (Formula Translation) program took place. Developed by John Backus and IBM, FORTRAN was the first high-level programming language designed to make programming more accessible and efficient for scientists and engineers. It quickly gained considerable traction in the scientific community and went on to become the dominant programming language for scientific applications for many decades. FORTRAN's introduction revolutionized the field, laying the foundation for modern programming languages and opening the door to widespread computational applications across various industries. In 1977, Backus received the ACM Turing Award for his contributions including designing FORTRAN.

August 20, 2024 marked exactly one year since I arrived in the United States! It’s been an amazing experience so far, despite the challenges I faced before the summer. I applied to over 260 internships, received only two interviews from Meta and Kite Pharma, and ended up with no offers. This made me worry that my summer might be ruined. However, I didn’t let that get the best of me. I engaged in many learning and growth activities over the summer : 1. I wrote a manuscript for publication on using Convolutional Neural Networks to predict Fractional Partial Differential Equations. 2. I won the Best Performance-Advanced Category Award at the inaugural ACCESS Support - SCIPE/CIP AI Mini-Hackathon held during the PEARC Conference Series PEARC24. This involved conducting sentiment analysis on movie data, which allowed me to learn more about Multilayer Perceptrons and how to make them more efficient. The award included a $3,000 travel grant to attend any conference or workshop of my choice. I would like to thank Alana Romanella and the organizers for this opportunity. 3. I finally published my undergraduate thesis titled “Classification and Prediction of Heart Disease Using Machine Learning “. Here is the link: https://lnkd.in/g-Tmni3h 4. I am currently serving as the Senator for the Graduate College in the Student Government Association at UTRGV. 5. I was appointed as the Alternate The The University of Texas System Student Advisory Council Representative for UTRGV. 6. I won a one-year free LinkedIn subscription from Rewriting the Code. Thank you, Rewriting the Code! 7. I have been selected to join Code2040 as a 2025 Fellow. 8. I have also been selected to participate in Canada’s biggest hackathon, Hack the North, at the University of Waterloo. I’m really excited to brainstorm and come up with new ideas with my teammates and mentors. We’re set on winning, and I’m looking forward to an exciting weekend! All this would not have happened if I had let the feeling of internship rejection get to me. My advise based on this is to always stay motivated, seek out new opportunities, and keep pushing forward, even when things seem tough.

It was wonderful to visit the University of Notre Dame on behalf of Purdue's Rosen Center for Advanced Computing (RCAC) and participate in their RSE-Con session today! As Research Software Engineering evolves, collaboration and shared knowledge are key to unlocking our full potential as institutional peers. Visits to both of our facilities revealed that, despite our different centers, we share a common vision for championing open science and advancing the RSE community. It’s clear there’s much more to discover and achieve together! Grateful for platforms like PEARC Conference Series and US Research Software Engineer Association that create opportunities for us to engage in these important conversations and connect in meaningful ways. Thank you Caleb Reinking, Brad Sandberg, and Notre Dame Research! Excited to see what the future may hold for our joint efforts! ???? #ResearchSoftwareEngineering #OpenScience #USRSE
