Computational Science Education Expert from Capital University Joins Regents, Supercomputer Center on Statewide Project

A Capital University professor has been recruited by the Ohio Board of Regents and the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) to set their statewide computational science program in motion.

Ignatios Vakalis, professor of mathematics and computer science and executive director of the Center of Computational Studies at Capital University, will serve as coordinator for undergraduate education for the Statewide Initiative for Computational Science and also will be appointed as OSC senior fellow.

Biomedical Applications Simulations

As advanced simulations integrate increasingly larger data sets, it is essential to explore the use of high performance computing to assure tractable methods of investigating computational data. As these data combine information from multiple sources, it is important to research advanced interface technology and develop more intuitive methods for interaction with large and complex multimodal data sets. Advanced intuitive interfaces are needed to integrate these vast amounts of multisensory data into a single coherent simulation.

$695,000 NSF grant to fund Ohio computational science project Ralph Regula School, community colleges to develop associate degree program

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a three-year, $695,000 grant to develop an associate degree program in computational science to a statewide coalition involving an educational initiative of the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) and three Ohio community colleges.

Blue Collar Computing Concept Sparks Imagination of Supercomputing Industry Insiders

Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) Executive Director Stan Ahalt’s Blue Collar Computing speech on high performance computing (HPC) for industry and research applications received enthusiastic support at the SC2004 conference in Pittsburgh, Pa., last week.

As more than 1,000 international audience members listened, Ahalt explained that HPC has reached a critical juncture as economic forces continue to shape its market segment.

OSC and OhioLINK Partnerships Through State Resources

 

Is two better than one? It is when you're combining two of the state's best resources. The Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) and OhioLINK offer Ohio's colleges and universities state-of-the-art computing, networking, and information programs that lead the nation in cost-effective delivery of high-quality services. Together, they offer a powerful problem-solving environment. Ohio has great potential as an information state with these two shared resources.

Virtual Simulation of Wheelchair Performance

Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) Research Scientist Don Stredney and J. Edward Swan III of The Ohio State University (OSU) Advanced Computing Center for Art and Design (ACCAD) were selected to present "The Determination of Wheelchair User Proficiency and Environmental Accessibility Through Virtual Simulation" at the Virtual Reality And Persons With Disabilities conference in San Francisco, California, June 8-10, 1994, sponsored by IEEE and California State University Northridge (CSUN) Center on Disabilities.
