Advanced infrastructure with the goal of enabling computationally-intensive research in electrical and computer engineering.
The infrastructure has been developed to support research in the three computationally-intensive research thrusts of the co-Principle Ivestigators, namely: improving power grid reliability through advanced simulation techniques; research and development of high-performance, energy-efficient computer architectures; and improving the energy-efficiency of special computer chips known as field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).
The infrastructure has primarily been used for simulation and modeling.
