Accelerating Scientific Discovery Through Computation and Visualization

The rate of scientific discovery can be accelerated through computation and visualization. This acceleration results from the synergy of expertise, computing tools, and hardware for enabling high-performance computation, information science, and visualization that is provided by a team of computation and visualization scientists collaborating in a peer-to-peer effort with the research scientist...

Promoting Scientific Research Culture in Youth through Empirical Inculcation

  Background: Empirical inculcation is vital for producing quality research professionals and upon realizing the increasing demand of emerging scientific research professionals, National Academy of Young Scientist (NAYS) launched its science for youth (S4Y) program in Pakistan with its emphasis on empiricism. Methods: S4Y team was galvanized to undertake this task and different scientific activ...

The Lake El’gygytgyn Scientific Drilling Project – Conquering Arctic Challenges through Continental Drilling

Between October 2008 and May 2009, the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) co-sponsored a campaign at Lake El ́gygytgyn, located in a 3.6-Ma-old meteorite impact crater in northeastern Siberia. Drilling targets included three holes in the center of the 170-m-deep lake, utilizing the lake ice cover as a drilling platform, plus one hole close to the shore in the western la...

Accelerating Large Scale Scientific Exploration through Data Diffusion

Scientific and data-intensive applications often require exploratory analysis on large datasets, which is often carried out on large scale distributed resources where data locality is crucial to achieve high system throughput and performance. We propose a “data diffusion” approach that acquires resources for data analysis dynamically, schedules computations as close to data as possible, and rep...
