CRI: Building Human Infrastructure: A Pipeline for Minority Preparedness in High Performance Computing (H-PIPE)

0709438建设人类基础设施：在高计算（H-PIPE）少数准备管道帕特里夏纳瓦分布式计算实验室（DCL）成立与NSF的资金（NSF-CISE EIA-0325024）。 H-PIPE将利用DCL作为教育，研究和推广活动的中心，从而使更多的人接受高性能计算机设计，操作和应用方面的培训。 该计划的支持将加强一个行之有效的模式，以招募，支持和发展在CISE相关领域接受培训的代表性不足的少数民族人才。 研究工作将使用学生建造的40个CPU（20个节点）计算机集群，该集群目前是DCL的核心，并将其用于三个交叉的努力：（1）加强对少数民族和女高中生的宣传;（2）进一步丰富CISE的教育活动;以及（3）让学生参与令人兴奋的相关研究，并使用DCL作为催化剂，促进可以从这种计算形式中受益的多学科合作。 H-PIPE将为学生提供在人工神经网络，生物医学工程，操作系统，计算机网络协议和计算机体系结构方面进行实践项目的机会。

H-PIPE will utilize the DCL as a hub for educational, research and outreach activities that, in concert, result in more individuals trained in the design, operation and applications of high-performance computers. Support of this program will enhance a proven model to recruit, support, and develop talent in underrepresented minorities that are trained in the CISE related fields. The research effort will use the student-constructed 40-CPU (20-node) Computer cluster that is currently at the core of the DCL and utilize it in three interleaved efforts: (1) to perform enhanced outreach to minority and female high-school students; (2) to provide further enrichment of educational activities in CISE; and (3) to involve students in exciting relevant research and use the DCL as a catalyst to promote multi-disciplinary collaborations that can benefit from this form of computing. H-PIPE will afford students the opportunity to carry out hands-on projects in Artificial Neural Networks, Biomedical Engineering, Operating Systems, Computer Network Protocols and Computer Architecture.
