CISE Research Infrastructure: Effective Information Access: Computer Science Research Fundamental to Creation of a National Information Infrastructure

小行星9503064 该奖项为可视化设施、支持分布式仿真的服务器和高速集群网络提供支持。 此外，新墨西哥州大学将在科学和工程图书馆建立一个国家信息基础设施（NII）实验实验室，作为一个共享的研究试验平台，并促进与圣达菲研究所和国家实验室在生物学方面的分布式模拟和研究合作。 实验室设备将包括图形工作站，通过高性能局域网连接到高端对称多处理系统、SGI Power Onyx和Power Challenge，以及毛伊岛高性能计算中心的IBM SP-2、桑迪亚国家实验室的英特尔Paragon和洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室的CM-5的远程高性能设施。 该大学将建立在自适应计算，人机交互，信息分析和模拟的现有优势，专注于自适应多尺度界面;分布式计算，通信和基于网络的应用程序的安全性;数据挖掘和过滤;和改进访问分布式仿真。

9503064 Hollan This award provides support for visualization facilities, servers to support distributed simulation, and a high-speed cluster network. In addition the University of New Mexico will establish a National Information Infrastructure (NII) Experimental Laboratory in the Science and Engineering Library to serve as a shared research testbed, as well as to facilitate efforts in distributed simulation and research collaborations in Biology, with the Santa Fe Institute and the National Laboratories. The Laboratory equipment will include graphics workstations connected via a high-performance local area network to high-end symmetric multiprocessing systems, an SGI Power Onyx and Power Challenge, and to remote high-performance facilities at the Maui High Performance Computing Center's IBM SP-2, the Sandia National Laboratory's Intel Paragon, and the Los Alamos National Laboratory's CM-5. The University will build on its existing strengths in adaptive computation, human computer interaction, information analysis, and simulation to focus on adaptive multiscale interfaces; distributed computation, communication, and security for network-based applications; data mining and filtering; and improved access to distributed simulation.
