9502791 Zwaenepoel该奖项为收购通过高速网络互连的共享内存多处理器节点集群提供支持，以支持对并行编程系统的研究，以及来自各种学科的算法和应用。该基础设施将被用作计算机系统设计师和计算科学家的研究工具。将支持的研究项目包括多处理器集群的编译器和运行时工作、高性能I/O和性能可视化；以及混合整数编程、分子动力学、油藏模拟、遗传连锁分析和地震建模中的算法和应用。该基础设施还将用于多学科设计优化和并行计算的新研究生和本科生课程。

9502791 Zwaenepoel This award provides support for the acquisition of a cluster of shared-memory multiprocessor nodes interconnected by a high-speed network to support research in parallel programming systems, and algorithms and applications from a wide variety of disciplines. The infrastructure will be used as a research vehicle for computer systems designers as well as computational scientists. Research projects to be supported include work on compiler and runtimes for multiprocessor clusters, high-performance I/O, and performance visualization; and algorithms and applications in mixed integer programming, molecular dynamics, reservoir simulation, genetic linkage analysis, and seismic modeling. The infrastructure will also be used in new graduate and undergraduate courses in multidisciplinary design optimization, and parallel computing.
