This Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) project will acquire and deploy a heterogenous high performance computing (HPC) system. The instrument enables the dramatic expansion of a HPC capabilities in the state of Missouri. Located on the campus of the Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, the center connects several partner institutions, and thus will have a transformative and broad regional impact on research and training activities across the state of Missouri. Partners include the full four-campus University of Missouri (UM) System, and other institutions including Missouri State University, Southeast Missouri State University, historically black Lincoln University, College of the Ozarks, and others. The facility will enable over a dozen research groups to advance state-of-the-art science in a variety of science areas. The project will also promote collaboration, training and educational activities.This investment provides new computational infrastructure (with a peak performance of more than 400 TFlops) necessary to advance science in several core areas relating to the study and design of advanced materials, spanning many length scales and ranging from fundamental to applied. Projects in the fields of Physics and Chemistry depend heavily on computation to understand and predict the quantum dynamics of systems of particles leading to the interpretation and prediction of the existence and behavior of exotic states of matter. Computational modeling in Mathematics and Statistics includes studying and optimizing charged plasma propulsion in space; it also extends into Biological investigations of DNA methylation which increases our understanding of a variety of diseases in plants (food sources) and humans (including cancer). Another area that will see immediate benefit is that of computation and data-driven Geophysics which involves the development of tools that are essential for the well-being of human society, including predicting and mitigating natural hazards such as earthquakes and volcanoes, as well as exploration and development of petroleum and other natural resources. Other projects include computational hypersonic fluid dynamics contributing to the design and optimization of high-speed aircraft and space vehicles. In addition to enabling and greatly enhancing a number of specific research projects, each of which benefits broad communities and society in general, a significant part of the broader impact of this project comes from the areas of training and education and increasing participation of communities underrepresented in STEM.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个主要研究仪器（MRI）项目将获得和部署一个异构的高性能计算（HPC）系统。该仪器使密苏里州的HPC能力得到了大幅扩展。该中心位于罗拉的密苏里州科技大学校园内，连接了几个合作机构，因此将对整个密苏里州的研究和培训活动产生变革性和广泛的区域影响。合作伙伴包括完整的四个校园的密苏里州大学（UM）系统，以及其他机构，包括密苏里州州立大学，东南密苏里州州立大学，历史上的黑人林肯大学，欧扎克学院等。该设施将使十几个研究小组能够在各种科学领域推进最先进的科学。该项目还将促进合作、培训和教育活动，提供新的计算基础设施（峰值性能超过400万亿次浮点运算），以推动与先进材料研究和设计有关的几个核心领域的科学发展，这些领域跨越许多尺度，从基础到应用。物理和化学领域的项目在很大程度上依赖于计算来理解和预测粒子系统的量子动力学，从而解释和预测物质的奇异状态的存在和行为。数学和统计学中的计算建模包括研究和优化空间中的带电等离子体推进;它还扩展到DNA甲基化的生物学研究，这增加了我们对植物（食物来源）和人类（包括癌症）中各种疾病的理解。另一个将立即受益的领域是计算和数据驱动的地球物理学，涉及开发对人类社会福祉至关重要的工具，包括预测和减轻地震和火山等自然灾害，以及勘探和开发石油和其他自然资源。其他项目包括计算高超音速流体动力学，有助于高速飞机和航天器的设计和优化。除了促进和大大加强一些具体的研究项目，每个项目都有利于广大社区和整个社会，该项目的广泛影响的一个重要部分来自培训和教育领域，以及增加在STEM中代表性不足的社区的参与。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识产权进行评估来支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
