Tue, 14 May 2013 18:47:00 GMT http://news.illinois.edu/news/13/0508alma_app.html Artists and programmers across the Illinois campus, including NCSA's Alan Craig, came together to create a free augmented reality app that ensures the Class of 2013 will be able to share in a beloved U of I tradition by having their photo taken with a photo-realistic, high-resolution digital Alma Mater. Wed, 08 May 2013 19:49:00 GMT http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/News/Stories/BWgrads/ The two winners of the 2012 Graduate Student Award in Computational Physical Chemistry, given by the American Chemical Society's Theoretical Subdivision, will receive 100,000 service units (3,125 node hours) on the Blue Waters supercomputer to accelerate their research. Mon, 20 May 2013 17:08:00 GMT http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/News/13/0508BlueWaters.html NCSA will host a free symposium May 21-22 at which representatives from science teams using the Blue Waters supercomputer will share methods and results in areas including GPUs, improving scalability, and new algorithms. Wed, 08 May 2013 13:52:00 GMT http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/News/13/0506Registernow.html Graduate students, post-docs and professionals from academia, government, and industry are invited to sign up now for two summer school courses offered by the Virtual School of Computational Science and Engineering. Mon, 06 May 2013 20:33:00 GMT http://www.icsi.berkeley.edu/icsi/blog/blue-waters-bro Traditional security technologies like inline intrusion prevention systems, stateful firewalls, and security appliances can take a 10 Gbps connection down to 500Mbps easily. NCSA, which has well over 100 Gbps of external WAN connections (and plans to go to 300 Gbps), can't come close to operating efficiently with those kinds of bottlenecks. Instead NCSA relies on passive monitoring techniques, making heavy use of ICSI's open-source Bro network security monitor to understand and protect its network. Fri, 26 Apr 2013 15:19:00 GMT http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/News/13/0419Undergraduate.html University of Illinois faculty, staff, and students are invited to attend the SPIN Fellows Symposium from 3:30 to 5:30 pm May 1 at the NCSA Building, Room 1040. Students participating in the National Center for Supercomputing Applications' SPIN Fellows program will present their work, and a pizza reception will follow. Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:13:00 GMT http://www.sdsc.edu/News%20Items/PR040213_earthquake.html A research team led by Yifeng Cui, a computational scientist at SDSC, developed the scalable GPU accelerated code for use in earthquake engineering and disaster management through regional earthquake simulations at the petascale level as part of a larger computational effort coordinated by the Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC). Wed, 03 Apr 2013 19:41:00 GMT http://www.greatlakesconsortium.org/news/ The Great Lakes Consortium for Petascale Computation has awarded access to the Blue Waters supercomputer--which is capable of performing quadrillions of calculations every second and of working with quadrillions of bytes of data--to 10 diverse science and engineering projects. Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:12:00 GMT http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/News/Stories/GLM/ The Great Lakes Monitoring project--including contributions from NCSA--helps scientists and the public keep an eye on the Great Lakes' 94,000 square miles of water by aggregating and visualizing data, helping to answer fundamental questions about the lakes' health.
