HPCC is a multiagency program designed to accelerate the development
and application of high performance computing systems through an
integrated program of hardware, software, and network development, as
well as long-term basic research. Advances in high performance
computing are coming from novel computer architectures such as
parallel processors, vector processors, and heterogeneous networks of
computers. The suitability of these architectures to solving problems
of interest to NASA and the development of new architectures that
efficiently solve these problems is the objective of this research.
Of particular interest is the investigation of architectures to solve
problems arising in computational fluid dynamics as governed by the
Navier-Stokes equations. These investigations could include software
issues as well as hardware issues because the ultimate goal is to
provide the researcher at Ames with improved computational resources.
Current computational resources include CRAY C90's and IBM SP2, as
well as a network with powerful workstations and superminis.

HPCC is a multiagency program designed to accelerate the development
and application of high performance computing systems through an
integrated program of hardware, software, and network development, as
well as long-term research. Goddard is interested in research which
will improve the usability and performance of distributed memory
supercomputers. Areas of particular interest include parallel
computational techniques, management of massive amounts of data,
architecture independent programming, and virtual environments. This
work is in support of ESS Grand Challenge science applications, which
include multi-disciplinary modeling of Earth and space phenomena, and
analysis of data from remote sensing instruments. Further information
