Deconstructing the Hummingbird’s Hover

Sep 2, 2014 |

Ever wonder how a hummingbird is able to hover in mid-air, appearing for a moment to defy the laws of gravity? You’re not alone. Vanderbilt University mechanical engineer Haoxiang Luo accessed the XSEDE’s Lonestar supercomputer to run 3D simulations of a hummingbird flight in an attempt to deconstruct its mysterious powers. Science Writer Jorge Salazar details Luo’s Read more…

HPC Bests Physicians in Matching Heart Transplant Donors and Recipients

Sep 13, 2011 |

Health care analytics is an emerging application area that promises to help cut costs and provide better patient outcomes. To reach that goal though requires sophisticated software that can mimic some of the intelligence of real live physicians. In Sweden, researchers are attempting to do just that by building a model of heart-transplant recipients and donors to improve survival times.

Scientific Languages Finding Their Way into Enterprise

Oct 27, 2010 |

Languages like R and MATLAB, which were once unofficially reserved for technical computing domains are slowly finding their way into enterprises due to the rise in demand for large-scale data analytics. This demand is coupled with recent announcements about cloud-based ways to use these languages, opening new doors to access and use.
