  4. 2010 Science Highlights—focus on the future • Led by Warren Froelich, SDSC and designed by Carlton Bruett, Carlton Bruett Design • Message from Forum Chair—The Future is Now—TeraGrid’s transition to XD • 16 Stories representative of research leveraging TeraGrid resources—chosen with following criteria:1. Potentially transform research in a particular domain. 2. Demonstrate the use of several TeraGrid resources across multiple RP sites. 3. Represent research conducted at a single RP—each of the eleven RP sites is represented. 4. Highlight work of individuals who are typically under-represented in HPC. 5. Illuminate projects in fields of study that are typically under-represented in HPC. 6. Demonstrate TeraGrid's impact—research that couldn't have been accomplished without it. 7. Collaboration with other grids, international partners, business, and industry. • Highlight about how TeraGrid resources were used to mitigate the oil spill.
