MRI: and Information Sciences Grid Node Research Facility

这个项目来自一个处于EPSCoR状态的机构，获取仪器来建立一个网格，旨在促进/协助经济、仿真、建模、高性能计算、图形和计算科学项目（例如，拼接）等领域的研究。计算机科学和计算科学领域涉及使用网格网络和可能的计算机集群的十个不同项目。该基础设施支持以下项目：集群/网格经济和性能、更好的显式并行编程模型、多学科研究的协作环境、研究建模和图形、网格中I/O和系统结构的可扩展性、高性能线性代数研究和基准、校园网格范例、基于网格的心脏电活动建模、多维可扩展动态序列对齐算法、加速系统发育树推断使用网格计算更广泛的影响：使计算机科学和其他学科之间的合作成为可能，该基础设施还将有助于提高高中生暑期可视化夏令营的质量（针对一些代表性不足的群体）。此外，该设备将为至少8名博士生以及其他研究生和本科生提供服务。

This project, from an institution in an EPSCoR state, acquiring instrumentation to set up a grid, aims at enabling/assisting research in areas such as economics, simulation, modeling, high performance computing, graphics and computational science projects (e.g., splicing). Ten different projects, involving the use of grid networks and possibly cluster of computers, are addressed in the fields of Computer Science and Computational Science. The infrastructure enables the following projects:Cluster/Grid Economics and PerformanceBetter Explicit Parallel Programming ModelCollaborative Environment for Multidisciplinary ResearchResearch Modeling and GraphicsScalability of I/O and System Fabrics in a GridHigh Performance Linear Algebra Research and BenchmarkExemplar for Campus GridGrid-Based Modeling of Cardiac Electrical ActivitiesMulti-Dimensional Scalable Dynamic Sequence Alignment AlgorithmAccelerating Phylogenetic Tree Inference Using Grid ComputingBroader Impact: Enabling collaborations between CS and other disciplines, the infrastructure will additionally aid in the quality of the summer visualization camp for high school students (targeting some underrepresented groups). Moreover, the equipment will service at least 8 PhD students, as well as other graduate and undergraduate students.
