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.

混合多核生产率研究中心(#1031999、#1032040和#1032077)本提案寻求为位于马里兰大学巴尔的摩县分校(作为牵头机构)的混合多核生产率研究中心与加州大学圣地亚哥分校(UCSD)和佐治亚理工学院(GT)的研究合作伙伴提供资金。基础研究的资金申请由NSF批准的请愿书授权，NSF 10-507。征集邀请研究所/大学合作研究中心提交支持行业定义的基础研究的建议。该方案原型了一个新的虚拟环境，基于新的方法，将不同的计算资源整合到虚拟世界中来模拟动态情况。新的数据和动态情况根据来自各种来源的信息的可用性不断发展，从而更新虚拟世界的表示，这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、计算加速器和从多核台式机到手机的客户端系统的方法来构建虚拟世界试验台。私人投资顾问非常有资格进行拟议的研究。拟议活动有足够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当前最佳做法，同时揭示需要采取新办法的领域，以便更好地利用新出现的计算模式来解决紧迫而广泛的社会需求。这项工作将很容易适用于制定未来的事件反应情况，包括自然灾害或人为灾害，例如最近的海地地震。这三所大学都有针对女性、国际学生和非裔美国人的积极项目，以及与当地学校的合作项目，以鼓励和指导来自代表性不足群体的高中和本科生继续攻读大学和研究生院的科学或工程专业，包括计算机科学。结果将通过报告和会议传播。开发的软件将在与谷歌Android相同的公共许可下提供。
