The Global Computing Lab (GCLab), headed by Dr. Michela
Taufer, focuses on various aspects of high performance
computing (HPC) and its application to the sciences. We are
engaged in the design and testing of efficient computational
algorithms and adaptive scheduling policies for scientific
computing on GPUs, cloud computing, and volunteer
computing. Interdisciplinary research with scientists and
engineers in fields such as chemistry and chemical
engineering, pharmaceutical sciences, seismology, and
mathematics is at the core of our activities and philosophy.
