MDC: Collaborative Computing Frameworks for Natural SciencesResearch

9527186 Sunderam拟议的研究致力于使技术能够支持协作，分布自然科学中基于计算机的问题解决方案。这项工作的研究重点将是在科学学科的问题解决环境，并在多模式分布式系统的计算机科学问题。该项目将以自然科学，即化学、物理、生物化学和相关领域的合作研究和解决问题的要求为动力。 在这些和其他基于实验室/仪器的科学中，越来越常见的研究方法涉及使用和依赖于计算，交互，数据的图形显示和数据存储。 该项目的总体目标是发展一个虚拟分布式计算框架，集成支持人类AV通信，高性能异构计算和分布式数据管理设施。 这项研究将涉及分析计算转换和科学仪器产生的结果的图形视图，以及开发方法和工具，以在协作分布式环境中加强科学奋进的实验-结果-分析阶段。 预计这一项目最终将产生一套切实的软件工具，促进这种协作框架。

9527186 Sunderam The proposed research address enabling technologies to support collaborative, distributes computer-based problem solving in the natural sciences. The research emphasis of this effort will be on problem solving environments in scientific disciplines, and on computer science issues in multimodal distributed systems. the project will be driven by the requirements of collaborative research and problem-solving in natural sciences, i.e. chemistry, physics, biochemistry, and allied fields. In these, and other laboratory/instrument based sciences, an increasingly common research methodology involves the use and dependence upon computation, interaction, graphical display of data, and data storage. The overall goal of this project is to evolve a virtual distributed computing framework that integrally supports human AV communication, high performance heterogeneous computing, and distributed data management facilities. this research will involve analysis of computational transformations and graphical viewing of results produced by scientific instruments, and the development of methodologies and tools to enhance the experiment-results-analysis phases of scientific endeavor, in a collaborative distributed setting. It is expected that this project will culminate in a tangible suite of software tools that facilitate such collaborative frameworks.
