Center for Hybrid Multicore Productivity Research (#1031999, #1032040, and #1032077) This proposal seeks funding for the Center for Hybrid Multicore Productivity Research located at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC as the lead institution) with research partners at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and Georgia Tech (GT). Funding Requests for Fundamental Research are authorized by an NSF approved solicitation, NSF 10-507. The solicitation invites I/UCRCs to submit proposals for support of industry-defined fundamental research. The proposal prototypes a new virtual environment, where based on new methods heterogeneous computing resources are integrated in the virtual world to mimic dynamic situations. The new data and dynamic situations are continuously evolving based on the availability of information from various sources, and thus updating the virtual world representation, which can be about disaster situation or large event of societal and environmental importance. The proposal combines methods to use cloud services, virtual world servers, compute accelerators and client systems ranging from multi-core desktops to mobile phones to build the virtual world test bed. The PIs are very well qualified to conduct the proposed research. The proposed activities have sufficient access to the necessary resources. This project will allow for synthesis of best current practices in divergent areas of multicore computing, data assimilation models and knowledge representation while exposing areas requiring new approaches to better utilize emerging computing paradigms to solve urgent broad social needs. The work will be readily applicable to develop future event response situations, including natural or manmade disasters, e.g. recent Haiti earthquake. All three universities have active programs for female, international and African-American students and cooperative programs with local schools to encourage and mentor high school and undergraduates from underrepresented groups to go on to university and graduate school in science or engineering, including computer science. Results will be disseminated by reports and meetings. The developed software will be made available under the same public license as Google Android.

混合多核生产力研究中心（#1031999、#1032040和#1032077）本提案旨在为位于马里兰州巴尔的摩县大学（UMBC为牵头机构）的混合多核生产力研究中心提供资金，该中心的研究合作伙伴为加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD）和格鲁吉亚理工学院（GT）。基础研究的资助申请由NSF批准的招标（NSF 10-507）授权。征集邀请I/UCRC提交支持行业定义的基础研究的提案。该提案原型一个新的虚拟环境，其中基于新的方法异构的计算资源集成在虚拟世界中模仿动态的情况。新的数据和动态情况基于来自各种来源的信息的可用性而不断发展，从而更新虚拟世界表示，其可以是关于灾害情况或具有社会和环境重要性的大型事件。该提案结合了使用云服务，虚拟世界服务器，计算加速器和客户端系统的方法，从多核桌面到移动的手机，以构建虚拟世界测试床。PI非常有资格进行拟议的研究。拟议的活动有充分的机会获得必要的资源。该项目将综合多核计算、数据同化模型和知识表示等不同领域的最佳现行做法，同时揭示需要采取新办法的领域，以便更好地利用新兴计算模式来解决紧迫的广泛社会需求。这项工作将随时适用于制定未来的事件响应情况，包括自然或人为灾害，如最近的海地地震。这三所大学都有针对女性、国际学生和非洲裔美国学生的积极计划，并与当地学校合作，鼓励和指导来自代表性不足群体的高中生和本科生继续进入大学和研究生院学习科学或工程，包括计算机科学。将通过报告和会议传播成果。开发的软件将在与Google Android相同的公共许可下提供。
