9802596FerryA Distributed Center for Advanced Electronics Simulation called DesCArtES will be established to address the needs of predictive physical models and computational tools for future generations of nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices. The efforts will focus on several key research themes of highest priority, through the formation of a strong collaborative team linking four of the leading academic groups in Computational Electronics: the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (acting as lead institution), Stanford University, Purdue University and Arizona State University. These groups have each their own strengths, and at the same time sufficient overlap of interests and a track record of collaboration, so that joint research efforts on the proposed themes can be effectively pursued.The research themes include:a) Continuum and Semi-Classical Simulation of Devices;b) Optoelectronics Simulation;c) Atomic-Scale Process Modeling for Nanoelectronics;d) Quantum Transport in Nanoscale Devices.The goals of this research consortium impact applications on a very large computational scale. While most of the development and testing can be conducted on typical workstations, realistic calculations, particularly in 3-D, will require considerable use of multiprocessor supercomputers. DesCArtES will have key interactions with many industrial laboratories, e.g. the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) in Illinois, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and NASA Ames Research Center in California. Through the close relationship with these centers, the consortium will gain access to the high performance computational infrastructure necessary for the research efforts proposed. The collaboration with JPL and NASA also emphasizes goals that are new and in many ways complementary to the goals usually pursued in the industrial collaborations of this partnership. From the variety of collaborations as well as the interdisciplinary emphasis of some of the proposed research, the center will derive a well-rounded and creative perspective of new and important applications in Computational Electronics, thus creating the necessary environment to pursue successfully the proposed research themes.***

9802596 FerryA分布式中心先进的电子仿真称为DesCArtES将建立，以解决预测物理模型和计算工具的需求，为未来几代的纳米电子和光电器件。 这些努力将集中在几个最高优先级的关键研究主题上，通过组建一个强大的合作团队，将计算电子领域的四个领先学术团体联系起来：伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校（担任牵头机构），斯坦福大学，普渡大学和亚利桑那州立大学。 这些研究小组各有所长，同时又有足够的共同兴趣和合作记录，因此可以有效地就拟议的主题进行联合研究，研究主题包括：a）器件的连续和半经典模拟;B）光电子学模拟;c）纳米电子学的原子尺度过程建模; d）纳米电子学的模拟。d）纳米级器件中的量子输运。该研究联盟的目标影响非常大的计算规模上的应用。 虽然大多数开发和测试可以在典型的工作站上进行，但实际的计算，特别是三维计算，将需要大量使用多处理器超级计算机。 DesCArtES将与许多工业实验室进行关键的互动，例如伊利诺斯州的国家超级计算应用中心（NCSA），喷气推进实验室（JPL）和加州的NASA艾姆斯研究中心。 通过与这些中心的密切关系，该联盟将获得所提出的研究工作所需的高性能计算基础设施。 与喷气推进实验室和美国宇航局的合作也强调了新的目标，在许多方面与这种伙伴关系的工业合作中通常追求的目标互补。 从各种合作以及一些拟议研究的跨学科重点，该中心将获得计算电子学中新的重要应用的全面和创造性的观点，从而创造必要的环境，成功地追求拟议的研究主题。
