Group Leader: Rusty Lusk.
Goals of the Computer Science Group
- To support the FLASH Center with computer science research in areas critical to its success
- Scalable performance and I/O
- MPI infrastructure work through MPICH, ROMIO
- Performance visualization (SLOG-2, Jumpshot)
- Parallel I/O libraries (MPI-IO, HDF-5, and NetCDF)
-
Numerical libraries
- Spectral methods
- Discontinuous Galerkin methods
- Component-based software
- Implicit methods via PETSc
- Other useful scalable libraries
-
Distributed computing
- Wide-area high-speed data transfer
- Data management
- Advanced scientific visualization technologies
- Large-format displays
- Desktop visualization coupled to scalable renderers
- To interact with and contribute to related computer science and application directions within the (ASC) program
