CERCS Mission

CERCS mission is to lead the innovation of new information and computing technologies, to construct the interactive information grids of the future, and to create the intellectual capital that can advance these technologies and fuel future advances. Its research thrust include:
Scientific/Technical Computing
  • Data intensive
  • Focus: Domain-specific Grid technologies - GT Teragrid
  • Key Projects:
    M-WARE, Federated Simulation, Netreact, Scientific Data Exchange, Smartpointer, Access Grid
  • Industry Funded Projects and Donations
      Message Evolution in High Performance Distributed Systems - middleware - Greg Eisenhauer, CoC. (seed funding)
      Benchmark Development for Interactive Grid Applications - Matt Wolf, CoC. (seed funding)
      Differential Data Protection in Dynamic Distributed Systems - Karsten Schwan (Patrick Widener - fellowship), CoC. (Intel)
      Infrastructure Sponsors - Cisco, HP, Intel, NSF, Dell
  • Funded CERCS Research
Enterprise Computing
Embedded Computing
  • Extending the domain of the Grid across the wireless infrastructure
  • Focus: Software services for remote access to information
  • Key Projects:
