  • High Performance Computing Collaboratory Capabilities Overview Mississippi State University Is an Equal Opportunity Institution
    High Performance Computing Collaboratory Capabilities Overview Mississippi State University is an equal opportunity institution. HPC² Overview The High Performance Computing Collaboratory (HPC²) at Mississippi State University is a coalition of member centers and institutes that share a common core objective of advancing the state-of-the-art in computational science and engineering using high performance computing; a common approach to research that embraces a multi-disciplinary, team-oriented concept; and a commitment to a full partnership between education, research, and service. The mission of the HPC² is to serve the university, state, and nation through excellence in computational science and engineering. UNCLAS: Dist A. Approved for public release UNCLASSIFIED HPC² History The High Performance Computing Collaboratory at Mississippi State University originated as the National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center for Computational Field Simulation, which focused directly on the application of high performance computing for computational field simulation of fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, and structural mechanics for applications to aircraft, spacecraft, ships, automobiles, environmental, ocean, and biological flow problems. Initially funded by the NSF Engineering Research Center Program in 1990 -- one of three funded that year out of 48 proposals - it was the only one with a focus directly on high performance computing. Over the 11-year life cycle as an Engineering Research Center, the MSU center increased its annual

Today, over 250 federal employees and contractors create products that touch all Americans by protecting life and property, as well as conserving and protecting our natural resources. National Data Buoy Center www.ndbc.noaa.gov An important component of the National Weather Service, NOAA’s National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) designs, develops, operates, and maintains a network of data collecting buoys and coastal stations. Weather forecasters need frequent, high-quality marine observations to examine conditions for forecast preparation and to verify their forecasts after they are produced. Other users rely on the observations and forecasts for commercial and recreational activities. NDBC provides hourly observations from a network of about 90 buoys and 60 Coastal Marine Automated Network (C-MAN) stations to help meet these needs. NDBC is also responsible for tsunami stations networked around the world. National Coastal Data Development Center www.ncddc.noaa.gov NOAA’s National Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC) is integrated with the National Oceanographic Data Center and the NOAA Central Library to provide comprehensive scientific stewardship for national and international marine environmental and ecosystem data and information. NCDDC fulfills this mission by bringing together diverse coastal data from a variety of sources and creating ways for users to access data via the Internet. NCDDC’s goal is to provide increased utilization of coastal and oceanographic data which will improve understanding, management, and use of coastal areas.
