Planning Grant for an I/UCRC for Optical Wireless Applications Proposal #1134830 Georgia Tech Georgia Tech seeks to join Pennsylvania State University (PSU) to establish the center for Optical Wireless Applications. PSU (lead institution) has already been awarded the planning grant, and has successfully completed the planning grant workshop. This proposal seeks to make innovative contributions to the hardware technology of ExaScale computing and TeraScale informatics, and advance the state of the art in high bandwidth wireless data transmission between processor and memory dies and in wireless communication over optical fibers. The proposed work is divided into two thrusts. The first deals with the technology of TeraScale information highway which includes long distance optical communication, regional radio over fiber (RoF) and wireless end user. The second proposes a completely new approach to data exchange between a chip multiprocessor (CMP) and (DRAM) main memory within a computer node, namely a low power millimeter wave wireless data bus that bypasses the need for the traditional electrical back-plane. The multi-disciplined nature of the project is aimed to harness a diverse educational and research approach that nurtures individual initiative in students who will actively interacts with industry and universities, to achieve a highly educated and skilled work-force that is able to compete in the global race to achieve ExaScale computing machines and a TeraScale information infrastructure. The result of this research is expected to contribute to business competitiveness, energy security, environmental protection, and climate forecast.

光无线应用I/UCRC计划补助金提案#1134830格鲁吉亚理工格鲁吉亚理工寻求加入宾夕法尼亚州立大学（PSU）建立光无线应用中心。PSU（牵头机构）已获得规划补助金，并成功完成了规划补助金讲习班。该提案旨在为ExaScale计算和TeraScale信息学的硬件技术做出创新性贡献，并推进处理器和存储器芯片之间的高带宽无线数据传输以及光纤无线通信的最新技术水平。拟议的工作分为两个重点。第一部分介绍了太规模信息高速公路技术，包括长距离光通信、区域光纤无线电（RoF）和无线终端用户。第二个提出了一种全新的方法来在计算机节点内的芯片多处理器（CMP）和（DRAM）主存储器之间进行数据交换，即低功率毫米波无线数据总线，它绕过了对传统电背板的需要。该项目的多学科性质旨在利用多样化的教育和研究方法，培养学生的个人主动性，他们将积极与行业和大学互动，以实现受过高等教育和熟练的劳动力，能够在全球竞争中竞争，以实现ExaScale计算机器和TeraScale信息基础设施。本研究的结果有望为企业竞争力、能源安全、环境保护和气候预测做出贡献。
