Center of Excellence in Remote Sensing Education and Research [CERSER] The goal of the CERSER program is to "develop and implement innovative and relevant research collaboration focused on ice sheet, coastal, ocean, and marine research. Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets [CReSIS] CReSIS is a Science and Technology Center founded in 2005 by the National Science Foundation. The center's mission is to develop new technologies and computer models to measure and predict the response of sea level change to the mass balance of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica. Polar Grid Polar Grid is a National Science Foundation MRI funded partnership of Indiana University and Elizabeth City State University to acquire and deploy the computing infrastructure needed to investigate the urgent problems in glacial melting. Polar Grid's major components and concept of operations are depicted in the figure below. TeraGrid TeraGrid integrates high-performance computers, data resources and tools, and high-end experimental facilities around the country by using high-performance network connections. With a combination of resources, the TeraGrid is the world's largest, most comprehensive distributed cyberinfrastructure for open scientific research. :: Conferences :: Super Computing 2010 This year the Super Computing conference will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana. Today the conference has built a diverse community of participants—including researchers, scientists, computing center staff members, IT and data center management, application developers, computer manufacturing personnel, program managers, journalists and congressional staffers— making it a annual “must attend" event for those throughout the technical computing community. The conference offers presentations, tutorials, panels, and discussion forums on breakthroughs in many areas and inspired new and innovative areas of computing. Committee on Institutional Cooperation-Summer Research Opportunities Program (CIS-SROP) Conference Established in 1958, the Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) is the academic consortium of twelve major research and teaching universities. The member universities collaborate to increase minority student access to graduate education, and our keystone program in this area is the CIC Summer Research Opportunities Program (SROP). Implemented in 1986, SROP is an undergraduate summer research program designed to increase educational access for students underrepresented in graduate education. This summer we are celebrating our 24th annual SROP research conference where we will convene more than 450 undergraduate researchers. In addition, the conference will bring together program alumni, faculty and staff from our member campuses and other supporters. The theme for the conference this year is “Research is Formalized Curiosity. It is Poking and Prying with a Purpose” Super Computing 2009 The Super Computing conference was established 21 years ago. Today the conference has built a diverse community of participants—including researchers, scientists, computing center staff members, IT and data center management, application developers, computer manufacturing personnel, program managers, journalists and congressional staffers— making it a annual “must attend" event for those throughout the technical computing community. The conference offers presentations, tutorials, panels, and discussion forums on breakthroughs in many areas and inspired new and innovative areas of computing. Association of Computer and Information Science Engineering Departments at Minority Institutions [ADMI] ADMI was founded in August 1989. It was established as a national organization dedicated to exploring and providing remedies to the educational issues in computer/information science and computer engineering that confront minority institutions of higher education. Black Engineer of the Year Awards STEM Global Competitiveness Conference [BEYA] The BEYA STEM Global Competitiveness Conference is devoted to honoring some the outstanding achievements of African-Americans in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields. Attendees can sit in on a variety of seminars and workshops that offer new information on a variety of topics affecting Black technology professionals such as career advancement, diversity programs and specialized industry updates, as well as attend a career fair. :: Research :: Undergraduate Research Experience [URE] - Summer Scholars Institute - Summer 2010 For the Summer of 2010, six students from Elizabeth City State University traveled to Indiana University at Bloomington to participate in an eight-week undergraduate research experience program. Students were partnered with a mentor and conducted research in their respective fields of study. This poster showcases the research conducted by Michael Austin and Robyn Evans. Undergraduate Research Experience [URE] - Polar Grid Team 2009 - 2010 Facebook Groups—URE Polar Grid Group The 2009 - 2010 academic Polar Grid Team has a facebook group that documents the teams daily activities.

Undergraduate Research Experience in Ocean, Marine, and Polar Science [URE OMPS] The URE OMPS program consists of undergraduates working on a specific research team closely with the faculty. The objective of the program is to promote the professional development of minority undergraduate students through their participation in ocean, marine and polar science research. :: Mathematical Tools :: MATLab Matrix Laboratory, commonly referred to as MATLab, is an interactive system used as a high performance language. The system is mainly used for technical computing. MiniTab Minitab is a statistics package that was developed by Barbara F. Ryan, Thomas A Ryan, Jr., and Brian L. Joiner at the Pennsylvania State University in 1972. Minitab began as a light version of OMNITAB, a statistical analysis program by NIST. Mathmatica Mathematica is a computational software program used in scientific, engineering, and mathematical fields and other areas of technical computing. It was originally conceived by Stephen Wolfram and developed by Wolfram Research of Champaign, Illinois. Simple Matrix Calculator The Simple Matrix Calculator is a mathematical tool developed by Donu Arapura at Purdue University. The calculator will take a matrix, of size up to 5x6, to reduced row echelon from by Gaussian elimination. |
