Abstract:
This is the second in a series of articles describing a
wide variety of projects at NIST that synergistically
combine physical science and information science. It
describes, through examples, how the Scientific
Applications and Visualization Group (SAVG) at NIST has
utilized high performance parallel computing,
visualization, and machine learning to accelerate
research. The examples include scientific collaborations
in the following areas: (1) high precision energies for
few electron atomic systems, (2) flows of suspensions,
(3) x-ray absorption, (4) molecular dynamics of fluids,
(5) nanostructures, (6) dendritic growth in alloys, (7)
screen saver science, (8) genetic programming.
