RENCI to demonstrate on-demand resources and provisioning at SC11
SEATTLE, Nov. 1, 2011–Scientists studying data or compute-intensive problems require high bandwidth and computational resources, often from heterogeneous systems at different sites. But they don’t need these resources all the time. Ideally, a scientist studying the properties of new materials for producing solar energy, for example, would be able to grab a “slice” of a […]
Look out PowerPoint: UNC students use Social Computing Room as a presentation tool
To paraphrase Marshall McLuhan, change the communication medium and you’ve changed the message.
It’s a concept that’s well understood by the students in Rebecca Nesvet’s English 102, (Writing in the Disciplines) classes at UNC Chapel Hill.

Putting data in its place
Understanding data often requires understanding the geography associated with it. Hurricane and storm surge models mean little unless tied to a specific location. Trends in diseases and public health can be spotted and analyzed by comparing data from different counties, regions or states.

Prostate cancer, the most common form of cancer in U.S. men, is also one of the most treatable: 90 percent of patients who undergo intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in the early stages are disease free after five years, according to the journal Seminars in Radiation Oncology.
