1 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff1 Cyberinfrastructure at Clemson Dr. D. E. (Steve) Stevenson Institute for Modeling and Simulation School of Computing (SoC), Clemson

2 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff2 Top Four CI Missions at Clemson’s SoC Develop human-centered CI driven by research and education opportunities. Provide the CI communities tools and services. Promote broadening participation and strengthening the Nation’s workforce. Provide a sustainable CI that is essential for conducting science, engineering, and industrial research and education.

3 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff3 Open Science Grid Palmetto Cluster Clemson has the World’s 60th fastest supercomputer and the fastest outside Government labs. Palmetto Cluster available for indust- rial applications.

4 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff4 TeraGrid Connections

5 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff5 School of Computing The School of Computing will be a national leader in the development of divisions that integrate computation with the arts, engineering, humanities, and natural sciences.

8 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff8 Existing Units Computer Science Study and research in traditional computer science areas of Theory Systems Algorithms Software Engineering Cyberinfrastructure Visual Computing Study and research in Computer graphics Visualization Computer vision and image processing Electronic arts such as game design, special effects, and animation.

9 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff9 Developing Unit Human Center Computing (HCC) HCC is an emerging field focused on understanding how to make computational technologies more useable and how computational technologies affect society. Human—Computer Interaction Broadening Participation Computing Education Societal Impact of Technology Human Factors User Interface Design

10 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff10 NVIDIA & Supercomputing NVIDIA Corporation has donated a Tesla S1070 supercomputer to the School of Computing for research in modeling photon transport and high-speed rendering. The S1070 has 960 compute cores with a peak performance of 4 Teraflops in a desktop. This donation continues a strong partnership between NVIDIA and the School of Computing through equipment donations and graduate student support. Jay Steele (Ph. D. candidate) has received three of the prestigious NVIDIA Fellowship awards, of which only 10 are awarded, world-wide, each year.

12 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff12 CI in Education CI involves people in interdisciplinary virtual organizations. 99.9% need not be programmers. Everyone must learn to think more creatively and critically. “From K to Gray” education initiatives supported by NSF and the Supercomputing Education committee.

14 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff14 Mission 1 Develop a human-centered CI that is driven by science research and education opportunities School of Computing has an HCC division. Several institutes at Clemson research the “human-computer interface.”

15 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff15 Mission II Provide the science communities CI tools and services: High performance computing; data, data analysis and visualization; networked resources and virtual organizations; and learning and workforce development;

16 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff16 Mission 3 Promote a CI that serves as an agent for broadening participation and strengthening the Nation’s workforce in all areas of science;

17 School of Computing 13 January 2009Enterprise Kickoff17 Mission 4 Provide a sustainable CI that is secure, efficient, reliable, accessible, usable, and interoperable, and that evolves as an essential national infrastructure for conducting science and engineering research and education. Reproducible and recoverable --- i.e., version 237 of acroread reading version 56 files.
