Abstract
The aim of the research project is to develop new programming models, evaluate existing methods for data-intensive applications as well as test/extend SAGA to cloud environments.
Intellectual Merit
This research will lead to novel programming models, applications and programming systems.
Broader Impacts
I am co-teaching a class on Scientific Computing with a focus on Distributed Scientific Computing
Scale of Use
multi-site simulations are required; many VMs for a class
Results
FutureGrid supported a new class focusing on a practical and comprehensive graduate course preparing students for research involving scientific computing. Module E (Distributed Scientific Computing) taught by Shantenu Jha used FutureGrid in hands-on assignments on:
