Scientific Computing Research Environments for the Mathematical Sciences (SCREMS) - Beowulf Linux Cluster Project

项目编号：dms - 0215443pi: Kawczak， Cai, Lucas, Sun, and Zhu。北卡罗来纳大学夏洛特分校数学系将购买计算机设备，用于支持数学科学的研究。该设备将用于几个研究项目，具体包括：a)电子封装和地球物理勘探前分层介质中的波散射快速算法，b)基于PDE的非线性最小二乘扩散层析成像方法，c)比较标记特定危害的测试，d)定价回顾亚洲选项。新成立的应用数学博士项目发展非常迅速，研究生和研究人员对计算能力的需求也非常大。数学系在大学最近的状态变化中发挥了突出作用，并继续这样做，因为大学积极推动其下一个目标，成为指定的广泛研究。高性能计算服务器的可用性将是数学系继续推动成为大学研究事业前沿的一个组成部分。

NSF Proposal Number: DMS-0215443PIs: Kawczak, Cai, Lucas, Sun, and Zhu.ABSTRACTThe Department of Mathematics at the University of NorthCarolina at Charlotte will purchase computer equipmentwhich will be dedicated to the support of research in themathematical sciences. The equipment will be used for several research projects, including in particular: a) fastalgorithms for wave scattering in layered media forelectronic packaging and geophysical exploration, b) a PDE based nonlinear least squares approach to imaging indiffusion tomography, c) tests for comparing mark-speciffichazards, d) pricing lookback-Asian options. The newlyestablished Ph.D. program in Applied Mathematics isdeveloping very rapidly and so are the demands for thecomputing power coming from the body of graduate studentsand researchers.The Mathematics Department has played a prominent role inthe University's recent change in status to a doctoral statusby the state and continues to do so as the Universityaggressively pushes its next goal of becoming designatedas Research Extensive. The availability of a high performancecomputing server will be an integral part of the MathematicsDepartment's continuing push to be at the forefront of theUniversity's research enterprise.
