- PI – Laura Bartolo (¾«¶«Ó°Òµ University)
¾«¶«Ó°Òµaim of this CI-TEAM Demonstration Project, is to build an online community for computational research. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµlong-term vision is an online community in which undergraduate researchers become a key part of the workforce for carrying out computational projects. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµonline community includes an expanding group of universities and supercomputing centers, in which undergraduates work remotely with research groups. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµproject will begin with students from Carnegie Mellon University and add research groups from other universities in the second year. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµcommunity will be hosted by the Materials Digital Library (MatDL), an online platform for community-based computational projects. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµlong-term vision enabled by this demonstration project uses cyberinfrastructure to restructure the scientific research enterprise in a way that both broadens participation and advances fundamental scientific research.
