The University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) received a $294,361 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program. The grant aims to strengthen UCCS's cyberinfrastructure and computational resources to support a range of research activities, including work in areas such as magnetic dynamics, animal biomechanics, quantum mechanics, genomics, and computational fluid dynamics. The project will establish a heterogeneous computing cluster with GPU-accelerated nodes, multi-core CPUs, and specialized hardware for machine learning and AI workloads. This advanced computing system will enable transformative research at UCCS and be shared with the Open Science Grid, contributing to national research capabilities. The project also supports student training in IT and cyberinfrastructure, with a focus on fostering diversity in the project's personnel and impact. The grant period runs from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2026.
