NSF-CGP Fellowship: Issues in Heterogeneous High Performance Computing

9600328，PI-Schlichting：该奖项支持Richard D.亚利桑那大学计算机科学系的Schlichtilg和日立公司智能系统部门的Sigeo Ihara博士。的中央研究实验室（CRL）。 该项目的资金将使Schlichting博士能够在日本CRL与Ihara博士就异构高性能计算问题进行合作。 Schlichting博士将根据他长期的研究工作，为该项目提供计算机科学的视角，为异构高性能应用程序开发软件支持。 Ihara博士将贡献一个应用程序的角度来看，互连异构科学模拟的需要，以及用于互连此类模拟的原型中间件系统。 结合的专业知识将促进技术的改进和所需的底层软件支持，使计算科学家能够处理高性能计算中的异质性。 该提案汇集了在高性能计算领域工作的研究科学家。 这位美国科学家将有机会熟悉CRL的应用要求、研究技术和高性能计算设备，同时为他们在异构计算方面的努力做出贡献。 因此，该提案实现了该计划利用国际合作促进科学知识交流的目标。

9600328, PI-Schlichting: This award supports the collaboration of Dr. Richard D. Schlichtilg of the Department of Computer Science at the University or Arizona, and Dr. Sigeo Ihara of the Intelligent Systems Department at Hitachi Ltd.'s Central Research Laboratory (CRL). Funding from the project will allow Dr. Schlichting to spend one year in Japan in residence at CRL collaborating with Dr. Ihara on issues in heterogeneous high performance computing. Dr. Schlichting will contribute a computer science perspective to the project based on his long-standing research effort to develop software support for heterogeneous high performance applications. Dr. Ihara will contribute an application perspective, a demonstrated need for interconnecting heterogeneous scientific simulations, and a prototype middleware system for interconnecting such simulations. The combined expertise will facilitate improvement in the techniques and the underlying software support needed to allow computational scientists to deal with heterogeneity in high-performance computations. This proposal brings together research scientists working in the area of high-performance computing. The U.S. scientist will have the opportunity to become familiar with application requirements, research techniques, and high-performance computing equipment at CRL, while contributing to their efforts in heterogeneous computing. Therefore, this proposal fulfills the objectives of the Program in using international collaboration to facilitate the exchange of scientific knowledge.
