Sandia’s Computer Science Research Institute (CSRI) brings together researchers from universities and the national laboratories in an exciting and dynamic environment to address research problems in computer science, computational science, and mathematics and to develop new capabilities in modeling and simulation. Over the last two years, the CSRI has hosted more than 200 short-term visitors and more than 60 long-term visitors including summer faculty, sabbaticals, and student internships. These participants represented over 100 institutions, and participants are encouraged to develop long-term collaborative relationships with laboratory scientists and researchers. The CSRI is located in a new state-of-the-art facility immediately outside the Sandia security perimeter within the Sandia Science and Technology Research Park. CSRI sponsors collaborative research in a wide-range of technical areas including the following:
Computer Science—Next generation architectures; data-intensive computing; environments
for scalable computing; parallel, scalable I/O; quantum computing.
Mathematics and Algorithms—Scalable solvers; optimization; multiscale methods; adaptivity and mesh refinement; solution of differential and integral equations; graph-based, discrete and combinatorial algorithms; uncertainty estimation and verification and validation.
Enabling Technologies—Mesh generation; data analysis and visualization.
The CSRI presents many opportunities for collaborations between university researchers and laboratory scientists.
