1 We have multiple supercomputers in the backend -- one doing CFD simulation of airflow; another structural analysis while in more detail you have linear algebra servers (Netsolve); Optimization servers (NEOS); image processing filters(Khoros);databases (NCSA Biology workbench); visualization systems(AVS, CAVEs)
  • One runs 10,000 separate programs to design a modern aircraft which must be scheduled and linked .....
2 All linked to collaborative information systems in a sea of middle tier servers(as on previous page) to support design, crisis management, multi-disciplinary research
