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.

research group's website.
