Proposal #: CNS 07-22890PI(s): King III, B. Alex Taylor, Jamie R.Institution: Austin Peay State University Clarksville, TN 37044-0001Title: MRI/Acq.: Distributed Computing Cluster for Multidisciplinary Research, Rsch Training, and EducProject Proposed:This project, acquiring a versatile high-performance computing cluster that will enable multi-disciplinary research, services physics and astronomy, chemistry, computer science and information technology, and mathematics. The requested equipment consists of a computer cluster (16 nodes, each two dual-core processors), three control nodes (1 master and two I/O nodes), a RAID storage subsystem, a tape drive, and necessary compilers and computational software. Research projects involve:. Data mining of large astronomical databases,. Coherent synthesis of high-harmonics,. Understanding of noncovalent assembly of macromolecules.. Application of parallel techniques to traditional applied mathematical methods, and. Tension supported truss systems (tensegrities).Broader Impacts: The instrument creates new opportunities for undergraduate research, contributing to train undergraduates in the use of high-performance cluster technology. Undergraduate capstone projects will be directed in Computational and Numerical Methods and Computer Science. The facility might enable students to perform graduate studies in applied sciences.
