The National Science Foundation awarded the Louisiana Optical Network
Initiative, or LONI, a prestigious grant for $2.2 million that allows
Louisiana to join the TeraGrid, a backbone of national
cyberinfrastructure. TeraGrid is a nationwide, NSF-funded research
infrastructure that incorporates high-performance computing resources at
nine sites across the country. The award will fund initiatives for
Louisiana researchers to develop broader use of LONI resources as well
as underwrite the operations costs associated with joining TeraGrid. As
a member of TeraGrid, LONI will contribute one half of its centerpiece
supercomputer, Queen Bee’s, computational cycles to the TeraGrid
community. LONI researchers will in turn be able to utilize the
TeraGrid’s national resources. This will give Louisiana researchers
better opportunities to collaborate on nationwide scientific research
projects and give LONI experience supporting a national user community.
High Performance Computing (HPC) which provides support for LONI
consists of Louisiana State University’s Center for Computation &
Technology (CCT) and Information Technology Services (ITS). Due to this
prestigious two year grant award, HPC will be *_hiring “so, please visit
