  1. Cyberinfrastructure at Purdue: Supporting Purdue’s Research and Teaching Mission Presented by: John P. Campbell December 6, 2010

  2. Overview • Mission: support, empower, and advance the use of computational infrastructure to enhance research and teaching

  3. Research Computing

  4. Measuring Impact Grid Computing Hubs 18,702,231 CPU hours 200,000 users each year, 172 countries Community Clusters Faculty 108,668,285 CPU hours supporting over 500 people 167 faculty PI’s DiaGrid 280 TeraFLOPsof current capacity PTO 300 Landsatand 300 ASTER scenes distributed in 2010; 11 GB of data collected and archived each day TeraGrid 51,688,377 CPU hours allocated to 36 Purdue PIs HPC Envision 160 undergrad students used virtual clean room 136,436,589 CPU hours

  5. People and Partnerships • Goal: partner with faculty to enhance research • Staff include research scientists, programmers, web developers, and support specialist • Proposals with faculty (averages since 2007): • 38 proposals submitted for $48M • 16 proposals funded for $12M

  6. Community Clusters: Steele, Coates, Rossmann • Goal: leverage the staff and financial resources - more than $1 million in savings • Number of faculty: 95 • Number of repeat purchasers: 16 • Number of CPU hours since Steele: 199,646,484 • Number of Jobs: 21,415,353 • Number of Users: 665 • Total Faculty Investment: $5.1 million

  7. Community Clusters: Steele, Coates, Rossmann

  8. HUBzero Platform for Scientific Collaboration HUBzero supports Purdue’s largest research projects: NEES: NSF $105M - earthquake engr data (Ramirez) NCN: NSF $29M - nanotechnology (Lundstrom/Klimeck) IndianaCTSI: NIH $25M - healthcare (Weaver) SoI: NSF STC $25M - information science (Szpankowski) C3Bio: DoE EFRC $20M - biofuels (McCann) PRISM: DoE $17M - mems devices (Murthy) IAEVTE: $6.1M - batteries and electric vehicles (Caruthers) 18 more hubs for other projects $5.3M in associated grants: NSF 0944665, NSF 0941302,NSF 0721680, NSF 0844032,NSF 1017837

  9. Visualization and Remote Sensing • Visualization: tiled wall, “cave” environment • Scientific visualization • Satellite data

  10. A Multi-Institutional Condor Pool • Largest federated, geographically distributed Condor pool • More than 36,000 cores, peak capacity - 280 teraflops • Purchasing an equivalent computer would cost $3 million and require 2,000 sq. ft. of floor space • Partners: Purdue Calumet, Purdue North Central, Indiana- Purdue Fort Wayne, University of Notre Dame, Indiana State University, Indiana University, University of Wisconsin, University of Nebraska

  11. Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT)

  12. People and Partnerships • Goal: partner with faculty to enhance teaching and learning • Staff include educational technologists, instructional designers, programmers, web developers • Support and develop tools that can be used in the instructional environment

  13. CMS: • Connect: Facilitate Communications • Clickers: Facilitating Interaction • Qualtrics: Getting Feedback

  14. Innovation • Partner with faculty to develop innovative applications for teaching and learning

  15. Signals Performance Preparation Effort

  16. Hotseat Enabling collaborative micro-discussion in and out of the classroom

  17. Mixable A social learning environment centered on the classroom.

  18. DoubleTake A mobile video sharing system designed specifically for students to use in college courses.
