AbstractProgram: NSF 04-588 CISE Computing Research InfrastructureTitle: CRI: A Linux Cluster for Space-Time Parallel Algorithms in Computational Nanotechnology and Education in Parallel Computing Proposal: CNS 0551472PI: Chandra, NamasInstitution: Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University Researchers and educators at Florida A&M University (FAMU) and Florida State University in the joint college of Engineering will acquire a Linux Computer Cluster for developing space and time parallelization algorithms for molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of carbon nanotubes, and for education and training in the area of parallel computing. The project will enhance research in the area of parallel algorithm development both in space and time domains for computational nanotechnology applications. In addition, the cluster will enable the Department of Computer and Information Systems (CIS) at FAMU to train undergraduate and graduate students in the area of parallel computing. The cluster will be used in the following collaborative research projects: 1) Nanotechnology Exploratory Research (NER): Scalable Techniques and Algorithms for Massively Parallel Nanomaterial Simulation for Long Time Behavior 2) Developing fine grained spatial parallel algorithms to simulate the mechanical Behavior of Carbon Nanotube based Composites and, 3) Developing interactive MD visualization tools for Sensor applications. In education, FAMU, an HBCU, currently has a Masters in Software Engineering Sciences (MSES) and is seeking a doctoral degree program. This cluster will facilitate advanced training and research for both students and faculty at FAMU and thus position the computer and information systems department at FAMU to develop a PhD program. The cluster will enable the education and training components of the proposal in the area of parallel computing, specifically focusing on students from CIS/FAMU.

计划：NSF 04-588简明计算研究基础设施标题：CRI：用于计算纳米技术中的时空并行算法和并行计算教育的Linux集群建议：CNS 0551472PI：Chandra，Namas研究所：佛罗里达农业与机械大学(FAMU)和佛罗里达州立大学联合工程学院的研究人员和教育工作者将获得一个Linux计算机集群，用于开发碳纳米管的分子动力学(MD)模拟的空间和时间并行算法，以及并行计算领域的教育和培训。该项目将加强用于计算纳米技术应用的空间和时间领域的并行算法开发领域的研究。此外，该群组还将使金融管理和管理大学的计算机和信息系统系能够培训并行计算领域的本科生和研究生。该集群将用于以下协作研究项目：1)纳米技术探索研究(NER)：用于大规模并行纳米材料长时间行为模拟的可扩展技术和算法；2)开发细粒度空间并行算法以模拟碳纳米管基复合材料的力学行为；3)开发用于传感器应用的交互式MD可视化工具。在教育方面，HBCU的FAMU目前拥有软件工程科学硕士(MSE)学位，并正在寻求博士学位课程。这一集群将促进FAMU学生和教职员工的高级培训和研究，从而使FAMU的计算机和信息系统系发展一个博士项目。该群组将使提案的并行计算领域的教育和培训部分成为可能，特别侧重于来自独联体/金融资产管理大学的学生。
