Abstract

We propose to use the Futuregrid to conduct a class at LSU.

Intellectual Merit

Help develop a distributed scientific computing that will use multiple resources and a Standards-based approach.

Broader Impacts

Will enable a large number of students from LSU, who haven't had access to supercomputers gain access and experience.
