The Office of Naval Research is developing a suite of technologies to help sailors and Marines avoid mines during amphibious landings. The systems, including Moving Map, Augmented Reality Visualization, and Expeditionary Warfare Decision Support System, aim to reduce the risk of accidents by providing real-time navigation data.
The OptIPuter project, led by Cal-(IT)2 researchers, partners with Chiaro to deploy Enstara routing platform for high-performance networking and data analysis. The platform's innovative technologies reduce infrastructure costs and enhance packet processing efficiency.
The OptIPuter project aims to create a parallel computer that uses optical networks to connect distributed clusters and large data repositories. This will enable scientists to analyze and visualize massive amounts of data in near real-time.
The National Science Foundation is awarding $53 million to build a distributed terascale facility, supporting research in storm prediction, combustion engines and biology. The project will create a unique national resource for high-performance computing, connecting researchers across the US.
The Modular-MPC 1/16 system by Aspex Microsystems Ltd. offers high-speed 3D data visualization with 10 frames-per-second performance for 16 million data elements. It achieves over 25 billion operations per second and is suitable for complex applications like computational fluid dynamics.
