The Center for High Throughput Computing


Below is a small sampling of the researchers and research groups at the University of Wisconsin that work closely with the CHTC:

David C. Schwartz is using the CHTC to create physical maps of genomes. The system has enough throughput for this project to map data representing the equivalent of one human genome in 90 minutes. More information about this work can be found at their website.

Sridhara Rao Dasu, Wesley Smith, and Sau Lan Wu are using the CHTC to do Large Hadron Collider (LHC) computing. The LHC experiments are expected to produce 200 MB of raw data every second which will need to be processed and then analyzed by physicists around the world.

Juan de Pablo and the Molecular Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics Research Group use the computational resources provided by the CHTC to predict the motions of macroscopic objects through simulations of what their microscopic particles are doing.
